The data in this accession were collected in Caribbean Sea and NW Atlantic (limit-40 W) from USS THOMAS S. GATES between February 2, 1994 and March 10, 1994. The real time data of water temperature at varying depth bathythermograph (XBT) was recorded in stripcharts by the US Navy. Radio logs are forms that contain time, weather latitude/longitude, vessel id, ship id, etc. These are radioed every two hours to some military center. One line per strip chart. Some strip charts have time /date /ship id /latitude /longitude annotated on the strip chart. Forty one stripcharts and radio logs were submitted to NODC.
