National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration data contains bathythermograph (XBT) temperature-depth profiles collected by the vessel COURTNEY. The dataset covers a one-week cruise from August 18 to 24, 1972, in the Alboran Sea, Mediterranean Sea, and North Atlantic Ocean. Data was processed by the National Oceanographic Data Center into the standard C116 format, recording temperature at non-uniform inflection points along depth profiles.
License information is not provided. The 'last updated' date on Data.gov (2026) is likely a system metadata refresh, not an update to the 1972 data itself.
