The Conductivity, Temperature and Depth (CTD) and other data were collected in NE Pacific (limit-180) as part of Fieberling Seamount project. Data was collected from Ship NEW HORIZON. The data was collected over a period spanning from August 19, 1989 and September 1, 1989. Data was submitted in three diskettes by Dr. Gunnar Roden, University of Washington, Seattle, WA. Data has been processed and is available in F022-CTD-Hi Resolution file format of NODC. F022 High-resolution CTD data is collected from high resolution (conductivity-temperature-depth) instruments. As they are lowered and raised in the oceans, these electronic devices provide nearly continuous profiles of temperature, salinity and other parameters. Data values may be subject to averaging or filtering or obtained by interpolation and may be reported at depth intervals as fine as 1 m. Cruise and instrument information, position, date, time and sampling interval are reported for each station. Environmental data at the time of the cast (meteorological and sea surface conditions) may also be reported. The data record comprises values of temperature, salinity or conductivity, density (computed sigma-t) and possibly dissolved oxygen or transmissivity at specified depth or pressure levels. Data may be reported at either equally or unequally spaced depth or pressure intervals.

The Conductivity, Temperature and Depth (CTD) and other data were collected in NE Pacific (limit-180). Data was collected from Ship POINT SUR and sent to shore via telecommunication. The data was collected over a period spanning from February 14, 1991 and November 3, 1991. Data was submitted in four files by Mr. Paul Jessen, Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA.

Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard Bathythermograph (XBT) (C116) and High-Resolution CTD/STD (F022) formats. The C116/C118 format contains temperature-depth profile data obtained using expendable bathythermograph (XBT) instruments. Cruise information, position, date and time were reported for each observation. The data record was comprised of pairs of temperature-depth values. Unlike the MBT Data File, in which temperature values were recorded at uniform 5 m intervals, the XBT data files contained temperature values at non-uniform depths. These depths were recorded at the minimum number of points ("inflection points") required to accurately define the temperature curve. Standard XBTs can obtain profiles to depths of either 450 or 760 m. With special instruments, measurements can be obtained to 1830 m. Prior to July 1994, XBT data were routinely processed to one of these standard types. XBT data are now processed and loaded directly in to the NODC Ocean Profile Data Base (OPDB). Historic data from these two data types were loaded into the OPDB. The F022 format contains high-resolution data collected using CTD (conductivity-temperature-depth) and STD (salinity-temperature-depth) instruments. As they are lowered and raised in the oceans, these electronic devices provide nearly continuous profiles of temperature, salinity, and other parameters.

The conductivity, temperature and depth (CTD) data in this accession was collected off of NE Atlantic (limit-40 W) using Oceanus and Conrad ships. The data was collected between October 1979 and March 1980 by Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, Palisades, NY. The data was submitted by Rennie Sarah and has been processed by NODC. The data is currently available in the F022 CTD hi resolution format.
