Bathythermograph and other data from MITO MARU, SADO and other platforms from 1956-01-24 to 1979-05-11 (NCEI Accession 8000150)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 03, 2026 at 07:24 AM | Dataset Last Updated: September 28, 2022 at 12:00 AM
This dataset includes selected depth bathythermograph (SBT) data from ATSUMI, CHIFURI, CHITOSE, CHOFU MARU, DAIO, ERIMO, HEIAN-MARU, HEKURA, KAIYO, KAIYO-MARU NO 4, KOFU MARU, KUROBE, KUROSHIO MARU, KYOEI MARU, MEIYO-MARU, MITO MARU, MIYAKE, OSHIMA MARU, REBUN, RYOFU MARU, SADO, SATSUMA, SEIFU MARU, SHINANO, SHONAN MARU, SHOYO, SHUMPU MARU, SORACHI, SOYA, SOYO-MARU, TAKUYO, UNKNOWN PLATFORMS OF JAPAN, YOKO-MARU, YUKARI, and YUSHIO MARU in the Coral Sea, East China Sea, Japan Sea, North Pacific Ocean, Philippine Sea, Sea of Okhotsk, Solomon Sea, and South Pacific Ocean from 1956-01-24 to 1979-05-11. Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard Selected Depth Bathythermograph (SBT) (C125) format. The UBT (C125) format contains temperature-depth profile data obtained using expendable bathythermograph (XBT) instruments. Cruise information, position, date and time were reported for each observation. The data records are comprised of pairs of temperature-depth values. Depths are selected by the originator - usually at standard horizons or some fixed interval. Standard XBTs can obtain profiles to depths of either 450 or 760 m. Special instruments permitted measurements to be obtained to 1830 m.
