Bathythermograph and other data from MITO MARU, SADO and other platforms from 1956-01-24 to 1979-05-11 (NCEI Accession 8000150)
Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard Bathythermograph XBT Selected Depths (SBT) (C125) format.
The UBT (C125) 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 records are comprised of pairs of temperature-depth values. Depths are selected by the originator - usually at standard horizons or some fixed interval. Standard XBTs can obtain profiles to depths of either 450 or 760 m. Special instruments permitted measurements to be obtained to 1830 m.

Supplemental Information | The publication listed below is related to the data collection and is available from the NOAA Central Library: The results of marine meteorological and oceanographical observations. [Tokyo] : Central Meteorological Observatory of Japan, 1950-. Note: Metadata for this accession were extracted from a legacy database maintained by the U.S. National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC). The design of the database did not exactly reflect the FGDC Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM). Principal Investigator (PI) and organization contact information accurately represents all available information from the legacy database at the time that this description was created. However, proper attribution of a PI to a specific institution or the role (submitting or collecting) taken by an institution may not be correct due to inexact mapping between fields in the legacy database and the CSDGM. Due to this uncertainty, the contact information was initially recorded in the Supplemental Information element of the CSDGM description. To develop more accurate metadata, NCEI reviews metadata for all accessions on an ongoing basis. Points of contact for this dataset include: Contact info: Agency: MARITIME SAFETY AGENCY; HYDROGRAPHIC DIVISION PI: N/A Address: address: 5-3-1 TSUKIJI CHUO-KU city: TOKYO state: NOT AVAILABLE postal: 104 country: JAPAN In this accession, NCEI has archived multiple versions of these data. The latest (and best) version of these data has the largest version number. |
