USCGC Barataria collected water temperature and other oceanographic measurements during a voyage in July 1969. The data is archived by NOAA's National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) under accession number 6900613. This historical dataset likely contains time-series observations from a specific ship-based mission.
