Conductivity, Temperature and Depth (CTD) and other data were collected in NW Atlantic (limit-40 W) from 52 stations as part of Physical Oceanography Field Program Offshore North Carolina. Data was collected during cruise CH-9222 of Ship CAPE HENLOPEN. The data was collected over a period spanning from April 29, 1992 to May 6, 1992. Data containing 2,951 records was submitted in a tape by Dr. Thomas Berger, Science Applications, Inc. Raleigh NC. 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.

Temperature profile data were collected using CTD casts in the South Atlantic Ocean from JAMES CLARK ROSS. Data were collected from 15 November 1996 to 20 November 1996. Data were submitted by British Oceanographic Data Center; Proudman Oceanographic Laboratory with support from the World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) project.

Temperature profile data were collected using CTD casts from the R/V HUDSON in the North Atlantic Ocean from June 1, 1985 to June 23, 1985. Data were collected by Dr. Barry Ruddick and Dr. Neil Oakey from the Dalhousie University; Institute of Oceanography as part of the Mediterranean EDDY Experiment (MEDDY).

Temperature profile data were collected using CTD casts in the South Atlantic Ocean from JAMES CLARK ROSS. Data were collected from 15 November 1994 to 21 November 1994. Data were submitted by British Oceanographic Data Center; Proudman Oceanographic Laboratory with support from the World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) project.

Temperature profile, salinity, pressure, and oxygen data were collected using CTD casts from the KNORR in the Southeast Atlantic Ocean. Data were collected from 13 November 1983 to 10 December 1983 by Lamont - Doherty Geological Observatory with support from the Agulhas Retroflection Cruise (ARC) project. Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard High-Resolution CTD/STD (F022) and Ocean Station (C100) formats. The Oceanographic Station Data (C100) format contains physical-chemical oceanographic data recorded at discrete depth levels. Most of the observations were made using multi-bottle Nansen casts or other types of water samplers. A small amount (about 5 percent) were obtained using electronic CTD (conductivity-temperature-depth) or STD (salinity-temperature-depth) recorders. The CTD/STD data were reported to NODC at depth levels equivalent to Nansen cast data, however, and have been processed and stored the same as the Nansen data. Cruise information (e.g., ship, country, institution), position, date, and time, and reported for each station. The principal measured parameters and temperature and salinity, but dissolved oxygen, phosphate, total phosphorus, silicate, nitrate, nitrite, and pH may be reported. Meteorological conditions at the time of the cast (e.g., air temperature and pressure, wind, waves) may also be reported, as well as auxiliary data such as water color (Forel-Ule scale), water transparency (Secchi disk depth), and depth to bottom. Values of density (sigma-t) sound velocity, and dynamic depth anomaly are computed from measured parameters. Each station contains the measurements taken at the observed depth levels, but also includes data values interpolated to a set of standard depth levels. 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.

Temperature profile, pressure, and light transmission data were collected using CTD and light transmission casts in the Northwest Ocean from OCEANUS. Data were collected from 24 April 1981 to 05 May 1981 by US Geological Survey; Woods Hole (USGS). Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard High-Resolution CTD/STD (F022) format. The F022 format contains high-resolution data collected using CTD (conductivity-temperature-depth) and STD (salinity-temperature-depth) instruments.

Temperature profile, pressure, oxygen, and light transmission data were collected using transmissometer and CTD casts from the OCEANUS in the Northwest Atlantic Ocean. Data were collected from 29 January 1982 to 03 February 1982 by US Geological Survey with support from the Ocean Continental Shelf - Georges Bank (OCS - Georges Bank) project.
