Description | |
Summary | This dataset contains temperature data collected with XBT, XCTD, MBT deployed from research vessels or merchant ships. The data are transmitted in near real-time or in delayed mode to the Coriolis data centre. The data may have been sent directly, in near real-time or in delayed mode, from the ship to the data centre or may have circulated through the worldwide meteorological data network (GTS) before being transmitted to the Coriolis data centre. The data are subjected to automatic, visual and statistical quality control procedures and then distributed through a web site, an Opendap server or an FTP server. |
