Bathythermograph (MBT), bathythermograph (XBT), ocean station data from ANTON DOHRN II, FRIEDRICH HEINCKE, and others in the Alboran Sea, Arctic Ocean, and others from 1936-06-30 to 1976-01-27 (NCEI Accession 9000162)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 03, 2026 at 07:48 AM | Dataset Last Updated: February 14, 2023 at 12:00 AM
Data collected by German Vessels between 1936 and 1974 was received from the German Data Center (DOD). The data include temperature and salinity data collected by German ships in the North-East Atlantic. Associated station and bathythermograph data has been processed by NODC. Station Data is available in C100 Ocean Station Data File format. Bathythermograph data is available in C116 XBT and C128 MBT file formats. Anton Dohrn cruise data was collected between January 8 and January 27, 1976. The data is stored in file L01196.001. Meteor cruise data was collected between August 27 and September 21, 1974. The data is stored in file L01197.001.
