Title: Temperature profile data from XBTs collected aboard multiple platforms in the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea as part of the High Resolution XBT Network from April 02, 2012 to June 10, 2012 (NODC Accession 0092527)
Abstract: Temperature data were collected from 473 XBT casts in the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea from April 2012 to June 2012. Data were collected and submitted by the NOAA Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory as part of the High Resolution XBT Network for lines AX7, AX10, AX97, MX2, and MX4. These data were also collected in support of the Ship of Opportunity (SOOP) and the Global Temperature-Salinity Pilot Project (GTSPP).
