WOCE Hydrographic Onetime Survey CTD Data

Koltermann, Klaus-Peter

Experiment
Summary
ONE-TIME DATA
The central part of the WOCE Hydrographic Programme was the one-time survey of the World Ocean.
This survey was conducted along a number transoceanic sections.
Typically, at each hydrographic CTD station temperature,salinity and dissolved
oxygen were measured at some thousand depth levels (ca 1 decibar resolution).
