Temperature profile and water depth data were collected using CTD casts from the R/V ENDEAVOR. Data were collected from 14 September 1981 to 01 October 1981 by Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) with support from the Warm Core Rings Program. The dataset is archived by NOAA_NCEI.
Use Cases
- Model ocean thermal structure based on temperature profiles.
- Analyze vertical temperature gradients based on CTD cast data.
- Study oceanographic phenomena like warm core rings based on the program context.
- Validate oceanographic models using in-situ temperature and depth measurements.
Strengths
- Data collection dates are precisely defined: 14 September 1981 to 01 October 1981.
- Data source is clearly identified: Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) and the Warm Core Rings Program.
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
- Last updated 1981-10-01 00:00:00; freshness should be verified.
