CURRENT - DIRECTION and Other Data from UNKNOWN From World-Wide Distribution from 19280101 to 19741231 (NODC Accession 8700078)

These data is a description of the Bauer-Robinson Numerical Atlas version VIII which contains temperatures for the surface layer for all ocean basins except the Arctic and temperatures and salinities for deep oceans in the Northern Hemisphere from 1928 to 1981. These originators tapes were prepared by Compass systems, Inc. and are currently available online in the current NODC data storage system. Included in the DDF is a reference list of where this data set has been published. These data were collected in association with NSI grants.

本数据集为鲍尔-罗宾逊第八版数值图集（Bauer-Robinson Numerical Atlas Version VIII）的相关说明文档，该图集涵盖1928年至1981年间除北冰洋外全球所有海盆的表层海水温度数据，以及北半球深海的温度与盐度数据。该数据集的原始数据磁带由康帕斯系统公司（Compass Systems, Inc.）制作，目前可通过当前的国家海洋数据中心（NODC）数据存储系统在线获取。数据分发文档（DDF）中收录了本数据集已发表文献的引用清单。本数据集的采集工作依托NSI资助项目完成。
