The Ocean Archive System searches our original datasets as they were submitted to us, not individual points or profiles. If you want to search and retrieve ocean profiles in a common format, or objectively analyzed fields, your better option may be to use one of our project applications. See: Access Data

| Title: |
Water temperature data from XBT taken from research vessel Italica in the Southern Ocean (> 60 degrees South) and Southwest Pacific Ocean (limit-147 E to 140 W) from 2010-01-25 to 2010-01-29 (NCEI Accession 0167835) |
| Abstract: |
Vertical temperature profiles were taken in January 2010 from the research vessel Italica during an oceanographic cruise between New Zealand and the Ross Sea in the framework of the "Climatic Long Term Interaction for the Mass-balance in Antarctica" (CLIMA) phase IV project of the Italian National Antarctic Research Programme (PNRA) using Sippican T7 Expendable Bathytermograph (XBT) with a vertical resolution of 65 cm and a maximum nominal depth of 760 m. Ship speed lower than 15 kn allows the probe to reach about 900 m depth. The transects were completed during 5 days to provide a synoptic picture of the thermal structure of the upper Southern Ocean. A regular 15 nm spatial sampling rate was adopted across the frontal regions of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current. All temperature profiles are quality controlled for consistency between adjacent profiles and by spike editing. Data are in TXT format. |
