Title: Temperature profiles from bathythermograph casts from VOLNA and other PLATFORMS in the Atlantic Ocean and other locations from 31 March 1985 to 27 April 1985 (NODC Accession 8500291)
Abstract: Bathythermograph data was collected from VOLNA and other PLATFORMS in the Atlantic Ocean and other locations. Data was collected from 1 March 1985 to 27 April 1985. Parameters include wind speed, wind direction, water temperature, and water depth. Data are in the Bathythermograph 36 Day Rotating File format.
