WATER TEMPERATURE and DEPTH - SENSOR collected from NOAA Ship OSCAR ELTON SETTE in main Hawaiian Islands from 2008-07-11 to 2008-07-29 (NCEI Accession 0155892)

XBT data were collected during a Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center's Cetacean Research Program's shipboard cetacean survey (Cruise ID SE 08-06). XBT casts were conducted at cetacean sighting locations where d-tags were deployed, between CTD cast locations (7/29) and opportunistically throughout the cruise. Lockhead Martin Sippican T-7 and Fast Deep XBTs were used. Terminal depths were 760 m and 1000 m respectively.本数据集的投弃式海温剖面仪（Expendable Bathythermograph，XBT）数据采集自太平洋岛屿渔业科学中心鲸类研究项目的船载鲸类调查航次（航次编号：SE 08-06）。XBT投次作业开展于部署了d标签（d-tag）的鲸类目击点位，介于温盐深剖面仪（Conductivity Temperature Depth，CTD）投次（7/29）之间，并在整个航次中开展随机采样。本次调查采用了洛克希德·马丁（Lockhead Martin）西皮卡恩（Sippican）T-7型与Fast Deep型XBT，二者的终端探测深度分别为760米与1000米。
