The Ocean Archive System searches our original datasets as they were submitted to us, not individual points or profiles. If you want to search and retrieve ocean profiles in a common format, or objectively analyzed fields, your better option may be to use one of our project applications. See: Access Data

| Title: |
Water temperature taken by XBT from the research vessel Italica in the Southern Ocean (> 60 degrees South) and Southwest Pacific Ocean (limit-147 E to 140 W) from 2016-12-31 to 2017-01-05 (NCEI Accession 0287163) |
| Abstract: |
Vertical temperature profiles were collected from December 31st 2016 to January 5th 2017 from the research vessel Italica during an oceanographic cruise between New Zealand and the Ross Sea in the framework of the Marine Observatory in the Ross Sea (MORSea) project of the Italian National Antarctic Research Programme (PNRA). Sippican T7 Expendable Bathythermograph (XBT) probes with a vertical resolution of 65 cm and a maximum nominal depth of 760 m were used. The mean spatial resolutions ranges between 15 nm and 20 nm, according to the specific part of the cruise. XBT launches might have been interrupted in case of severe sea and weather conditions. This implies the possible presence of gaps in the sampling. All temperature profiles are quality controlled for consistency between adjacent profiles and through spike editing. Data are provided in TXT format. |
