Temperature profile data were collected using CTD casts from the ODEN in the Arctic Ocean from 26 May 2001 to 21 September 2001. Data were submitted by Dr. Goran Bjork of the Goteborg University.

The CTD data were taken during the expedition "Lomonosov Ridge off Greenland" (LOMROG) in summer 2007 with the Swedish icebreaker Oden. The LOMROG expedition involved 31 onboard scientists from Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Canada and USA. The main scientific focus of the expedition was to study the Lomonosov Ridge area north of Greenland including seafloor mapping, seismics and sediment coring. In addition the expedition included oceanographic and sea ice research components. A more detailed description of the expedition is provided in the cruise report (available by contacting the data set contributor). The oceanographic component of LOMROG focused on constraining and understanding the pathways of the Atlantic water and deep water across the Lomonosov Ridge between the Eurasian Basin and Canadian Basin and through the western Fram Strait. The oceanographic program included CTD measurements and water sampling with chemical analyses including CFCs, oxygen, mercury, dissolved inorganic carbon/pH/total alkalinity, nutrients, oxygen-18, and salinity. CTD and water sampling was performed at 27 stations in the western Eurasian Basin mainly along the Eurasian Basin flank of the Lomonosov Ridge near Greenland, along the Northern Greenland continental shelf slope, and a section from the East Greenland continental margin to the Gakkel Ridge.

Arctic Ocean Expedition 1991 (ODEN-91) Final Calibrated Pressure-Series CTD Data (Pressure, Temperature, Salinity) was collected from ODEN in the Arctic Ocean from August 20, 1991, to October 03, 1991. These data were submitted by Sarilee Anderson, Research Associate with Joe Reid, STS/ODF CTD Group, Oceanographic Data Facility, Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego. The data is available in the NODC standard High-Resolution STD/CTD Data (F022) format. 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. Data values may be subject to averaging or filtering or obtained by interpolation and may be reported at depth intervals as fine as 1m. 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. A text record is available for comments.

This collection contains data collected by Russian and former Soviet Union oceanographers from 1870 to 1941 years from Arctic Ocean and Arctic Seas. Most of these data were discovered from the archives not widely opened to the public that makes this atlas invaluable contribution to the international scientific community. This archival package is a copy of the History of the Arctic Exploration atlas website containing html files, pdf files of cruise reports, data distribution maps, and data in comma separated value format. NCEI decommissioned the International Ocean Atlas and Information Series Volume 8: History of the Arctic Exploration 2003 in May 2025 with no further updates.
