Temperature and Salinity; North Pacific, North Atlantic and Indian Oceans; Baltic and North Seas (RIHMI-WDC)

IGOSS temperature and salinity data received via GTS since 1984 from the
following areas: North Pacific Ocean, Baltic Sea, North Sea, Indian Ocean, and
North Atlantic Ocean. There are 243,000 reports of temperature versus depth
(BATHY), and 42,000 reports of salinity versus depth (TESAC). These are IGOSS
verified Russian and foreign data sets (BATHY/TESAC reports) available for
international exchange without restriction.

Also, time-ranged dataset of time series from deep temperature and salinity
observations at ocean weather stations T, J, K in the North Atlantic Ocean are
available from 10,000 stations, for the time period 1950 to 1984.

All-Russian Research Institute of Hydrometeorological Information (RIHMI-WDC)
conducts acquisition, processing and storage of environmental data as well as
making them available to users. Global oceanographic datasets held in national
format are available from RIHMI-WDC as 1600 bpi magnetic tape copies or data
products (i.e., formatted printouts, data summaries, analyses and plots).
