Title: Temperature and salinity profiles collected from CTD and XBT casts from the PUERTO DESEADO in the Southern Ocean from 2009-02-17 to 2009-03-12 (NCEI Accession 0164567)
Abstract: This cross-slope survey of the western South Scotia Ridge and nearby Scotia Sea consists of fifty-seven hydrographic stations. At each of these locations Conductivity/Temperature/Depth (CTD) were taken. The horizontal resolution of the upper layer thermal structure along the longest two CTD sections was highly improved with the aid of data collected from sixty Expendable Bathythermograph (XBT) probes launched at intermediate locations.
