Maintenance and Update Frequency: asNeeded Statement: Original field data. Collected with Turo_XBT_5.02.03 and Devil 8.3.0 This record describes XBT data collected on RV Investigator voyage IN2020_V06 titled "Probing the Australian-Pacific Plate Boundary: Macquarie Ridge in 3-D." The voyage took place between October 8 and November 3, 2020 departing from Hobart (TAS) and arriving in Hobart (TAS). A total of 23 XBT casts were conducted over the duration of this voyage. Of these casts, 14 were considered acceptable, 4 were bad (failed or high SST) (i.e. 014, 015, 016, 019), 4 were good to only ~200 m (i.e. 003, 004, 005, 006) and 1 had no data at the start of the profile (i.e. 017). Data are stored in netCDF files at CSIRO. Additional information regarding this dataset is contained in the GSM data acquisition and processing report.
