Temperature profile data were collected in NW Atlantic (limit-40 W) from ship KOELN ATLANTIC as part of the Ship Of Opportunity Programme (SOOP) and World Ocean Circulation Experiment. The data were collected from December 31, 1989 to January 1, 1991. The originator's 796 SOOP bathythermograph (XBT) data set from 14 cruises was submitted by Dr. P. Ehlers of Bundesamt für Seeschifffahrt und Hydrographie, Hamburg, Germany via File Transfer Protocol.

This dataset contains oceanographic water temperature profiles collected from XBTs aboard the platforms Josephine Maersk, Capitaine Quiros, and ANL Elaroo in the South Pacific Ocean, Tasman Sea, and Coral Sea from 2018-06-07 to 2018-12-03. These data were collected by the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO) as part of the JCOMM Ship of Opportunity Programme and submitted by Rebecca Cowley of CSIRO as part of the Global Temperature and Salinity Profile Programme (GTSPP).

The dataset consists of 43 XBT casts in the region northeast of Flemish Cap. The XBTs were Lockheed Martin Sippican Deep Blue probes with a nominal depth range of 760 m. The MK21 data acquisition system was used to log the raw data and the standard depth equation was used to determine probe depth. The data were subsequently bin-averaged into 1 m bins. The XBT data were collected during R/V Endeavor cruise EN492 to the region northeast of Flemish Cap in the Northwest Atlantic. The purpose of the cruise was to observe the process of anticyclonic eddy generation and evolution in the so-called Northwest Corner region, where the northward-flowing North Atlantic current turns to flow eastward. During the cruise the upper ocean hydrography, in an approximately 250 km square region centered on the turning region, was observed with a grid of CTD casts to 1000 db spaced approximately 50 km apart. The XBT was deployed at roughly the midpoints of some of the transits between CTD stations and at other locations north of Flemish Cap.

This dataset contains water temperature profiles collected from XBTs aboard the HORIZON ENTERPRISE, E.R. Wilhelmshaven, JPO Scorpius, Itajai Express, Maersk Taikung, TALLAHASSEE, ANL Warrnambool, and Santa Catarina in the Pacific Ocean, Indian Ocean, Greater Farallones National Marine Sanctuary, Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary, and Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument from 2013-01-20 to 2013-12-10 and from 2021-12-13 to 2022-12-01. These data were collected by Scripps Institute of Oceanography (SIO), as part of the JCOMM Ship of Opportunity Programme and SIO High Resolution XBT/XCTD Network (lines i21, p09, p13, p37, p40, and s37) and submitted by Lisa Lehmann of SIO as part of the Global Temperature and Salinity Profile Programme (GTSPP).
