Temperature, depth, salinity, dissolved oxygen (CTD) data from MELVILLE, KNORR and other platforms in the NE Atlantic, NW Atlantic and South Atlantic Ocean from 1972-07-24 to 1989-01-13 (NCEI Accession 9500080)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 03, 2026 at 07:56 AM | Dataset Last Updated: November 19, 2002 at 12:00 AM
Eight data sets of Temperature, Depth, Salinity, dissolved Oxygen (CTD) data collected in South Atlantic Ocean, NE Atlantic (limit-40 W), NW Atlantic (limit-40 W) between July 24, 1972 and January 13, 1989 as part of the World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) using ships MELVILLE, ATLANTIS II and OCEANUS. Data from 789 stations containing 324,461 records from eight cruises (already in NODC archives) with GEOSECS and TTO-Atlantic data was submitted by Kai Jancke of Bundesamt für Seeschifffahrt und Hydrographie, Hamburg, Germany.
