Bathythermograph (MBT) data from EVANS in the North Pacific Ocean from 1967-01-24 to 1967-01-26 (NCEI Accession 6700053)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 03, 2026 at 05:42 AM | Dataset Last Updated: August 18, 2022 at 12:00 AM
This dataset includes bathythermograph (MBT) data from EVANS in the North Pacific Ocean from 1967-01-24 to 1967-01-26. Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard Bathythermograph (MBT) (C128) format. The C128 format is used for temperature-depth profile data obtained using the mechanical bathythermograph (MBT) instrument. The maximum depth of MBT observations is approximately 285 m. Therefore, MBT data are useful only in studying the thermal structure of the upper layers of the ocean. Cruise information, date, position, and time are reported for each observation. The data record comprises pairs of temperature-depth values. Temperature data in this file are recorded at uniform 5 m depth intervals.
