World Ocean Circulation Experiment Global Data V3.0 Profiling Floats

The World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) was a part of the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) which used resources from nearly 30 countries to make unprecedented in-situ and satellite observations of the global ocean between 1990 and 1998 and to observe poorly-understood but important physical processes.
The collection contains ocean temperature and salinity data measured by profiling floats. The data have been contributed by a number of researchers. The data have undergone whatever data quality checks are carried out by the originator only. None of the data have passed through standardized procedures. Users are cautioned to keep this in mind when using the data.

世界大洋环流实验（World Ocean Circulation Experiment, WOCE）是世界气候研究计划（World Climate Research Programme, WCRP）的组成部分。该项目依托近30个国家的资源，于1990年至1998年间开展了史无前例的全球海洋原位观测与卫星观测，以研究此前认知不足但至关重要的海洋物理过程。本数据集包含由剖面浮标采集的海洋温度与盐度数据，相关数据由众多科研人员贡献提交。这些数据仅经过了原始提交者自行开展的各类数据质量核查流程，尚未通过任何标准化处理程序。特此提醒使用者在使用该数据时务必牢记这一点。
