Temperature profiles from eXpandable BathyTermograph (XBT) collected in December 2023 along the MX04 transect

The MX04_MACMAP_10 datasets have been gathered during the monitoring campaigns of sea temperature in the Ligurian and Tyrrhenian Seas started in September 2021 within the MACMAP project in collaboration with ENEA and GNV S.p.A. shipping company. The data are collected using XBT probes along the Genova-Palermo track (MX04 line of the SOOP program of GOOS) using ships of opportunity. According to Simoncelli et al. (2024) a full metadata description, compliant with the most recent community standards and formats, completes the dataset.MX04_MACMAP_10数据集采集自2021年9月启动的利古里亚海与第勒尼安海海温监测工作，该工作在MACMAP项目框架下开展，由ENEA与GNV S.p.A.航运公司合作完成。数据通过抛弃式深水测温探头（XBT）沿热那亚-巴勒莫航线采集，该航线属于全球海洋观测系统（Global Ocean Observing System，简称GOOS）自愿观测船计划（Ships of Opportunity Program，简称SOOP）的MX04测线，所用观测船舶为顺路观测商船。根据Simoncelli等（2024）的研究，本数据集附带符合最新学术社区标准与格式的完整元数据说明。
