Temperature profile, conductivity, pressure, and other data were collected using CTD casts in the Pacific Ocean from 01 June 1985 to 31 August 2001. Data were submitted by Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory as part of the Vents Program.

Pressure and temperature profile data were collected using CTD casts from the Northeast Pacific Ocean, Coastal Waters of California, and Mississippi river from July 25, 2005 to March 23, 2006. Data were submitted by the National Ocean Service (NOS).

Temperature profile and other data were collected using CTD casts from NOAA Ship MALCOLM BALDRIGE and NOAA Ship DISCOVERER in the North/South Pacific Ocean from 23 February 1990 to 06 December 1990. Data were collected by the Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL) with support from Equatorial Pacific Ocean Climate Studies (EPOCS) and Climate and Global Change (CGS) project. Data were processed by NODC to 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.

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 and pressure data were collected from the NAVIGATION RESPONSE TEAM 3 from January 5, 2000 to September 5, 2000. Data were submitted by National Ocean Service (NOS) using CTD casts in the Northeast Pacific Ocean.

Temperature profile and other data were collected using CTD casts from NOAA Ship RESEARCHER in the TOGA Area - Pacific Ocean from 09 April 1984 to 05 November 1984.

This data set was designed to address the physical variability in Pacific Northwest estuaries, the relationship between estuarine processes and the variability in the coastal ocean, and, in concert with fisheries components of Pacific Northwest Coastal Ecosystem Regional Study (PNCERS) - the sources of variability in year-class strength in several important marine species.
