Water temperature from XBT taken from the research vessel Italica in the Southern Ocean and Southwest Pacific Ocean from 2000-01-07 to 2000-02-18 (NCEI Accession 0173212)

Vertical temperature profiles were taken from January 7th 2000 to February 18th 2000 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) project of the I...

Description
Summary:Vertical temperature profiles were taken from January 7th 2000 to February 18th 2000 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) project of the Italian National Antarctic Research Programme (PNRA) using Sippican T7 Expendable Bathythermograph (XBT). Used probes have a vertical resolution of 65 cm and a maximum nominal depth of 760 m. XBT launches have been interrupted in case of severe sea and weather conditions. This implies the presence of gaps in the sampling. The spatial resolution of the sampling varies between 20 nm and 40 nm according to the specific cruise leg. All temperature profiles are quality controlled for consistency between adjacent profiles and through spike editing. Data are provided in TXT format.
