NODC Standard Product: Experimental Compact Disc NODC-01 Pacific Ocean Temperature-Salinity Profiles (1900-1988) (NCEI Accession 0086259)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: May 06, 2026 at 01:17 AM | Dataset Last Updated: November 30, 2012 at 12:00 AM
The National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC) created a CD-ROM containing over 1.3 million temperature-depth and salinity-depth profiles taken in the Pacific Ocean between 1900 and 1988. Designated as CD-ROM NODC-01, it was the first in a planned series of ocean data compact discs holding major portions of NODC's global data archive. CD-ROM NODC-01 was made available free to researchers who agreed to test it and provide an evaluation of the disc to the NODC. NODC-01 was subsequently replaced with later CD-ROM products holding additional observation data. The NODC World Ocean Database collections accessible via CD-ROM, DVD-ROM and online services contain the most recent version of these temperature and salinity profile data.
