Global Near Real-Time Temperature and Salinity Profile Data from the GTSPP project from 06 April 2001 to 30 July 2001 (NODC Accession 0000577)

Physical, current, meteorological, and other data were collected from XBT casts, buoys, and other instruments from a World-Wide distribution. Data were collected from 06 April 2001 to 30 July 2001. Data were submitted by the Marine Environmental Data Service (MEDS) in support of the Array for Real-time Geostrophic Oceanography (Argo), the Gulf of Mexico NOAA/NMFS Ship of Opportunity (SOOP), the World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE), and the Global Temperature-Salinity Pilot Project (GTSPP). Physical parameters include profiles of temperature and salinity. Current parameters include current direction and speed. Meteorological data include dry bulb temperature, wind speed, wind direction, relative humidity, and air pressure.

本数据集涵盖物理海洋、海流、气象及其他类型观测数据，采集自全球分布的抛弃式温深剖面仪（Expendable Bathythermograph, XBT）投放作业、浮标及其他观测设备。数据采集时段为2001年4月6日至2001年7月30日。该数据集由海洋环境数据服务处（Marine Environmental Data Service, MEDS）提交，用于支撑实时地转海洋学阵列（Array for Real-time Geostrophic Oceanography, Argo）、墨西哥湾NOAA/NMFS 机遇观测船舶（Ship of Opportunity, SOOP）、世界大洋环流实验（World Ocean Circulation Experiment, WOCE）以及全球温度-盐度试点项目（Global Temperature-Salinity Pilot Project, GTSPP）的科研工作。其中，物理参数包含温度与盐度剖面数据；海流参数涵盖流向与流速信息；气象数据则包括干球温度、风速、风向、相对湿度及大气压力。
