This record describes expendable bathythermograph, XBT, data collected on the RV Investigator voyage IN2016_V03, 'Monitoring Ocean Change and Variability along 170° W from the ice edge to the equator', which departed Hobart on the 26 April 2016 and returned to Lautoka, Fiji on the 30 June 2016. There was a port call at Wellington, New Zealand, 26 - 27 May for some science personnel change; this resulted in two "legs" of the voyage therefore Leg 1 is 26 April - 26 May 2016, and Leg 2 27 May - 30 June 2016. The ship XBT system as well as Bec Cowley's wireless XBT system were used to collect multiple XBT drops at CTD deployments for data comparisons. A total of 147 XBT casts were conducted over the duration of this voyage on the ship XBT system. Data are stored in netCDF files at CSIRO. Additional information regarding this dataset is contained in the GSM data acquisition and processing report. Additional data products may be available on request.
