Upper Ocean Thermal Data, High Density, Pacific Ocean Line PX35 (Melbourne-Dunedin), 1991-1992

This dataset contains temperature data from the TOGA/WOCE transect PX35 across the Tasman Sea. Data were collected between January 1991 and April 1992. The transect was repeated approximately 4 times a year, with profiles obtained approximately every 10-50 Km. The data were obtained from XBTs (expendable bathythermographs) deployed via merchant vessels, and are now managed by the Joint Australian Facility for Ocean Observing Systems (JAFOOS), a collaborative venture between CSIRO Marine Research and the Bureau of Meteorology Research Centre (BMRC).

本数据集包含横跨塔斯曼海的热带海洋全球大气计划/世界海洋环流实验（TOGA/WOCE）断面PX35的温度数据。数据采集时段为1991年1月至1992年4月。该断面每年约重复观测4次，剖面数据的获取间距约为10至50千米。数据由商船投放的XBT（Expendable Bathythermograph，投弃式温深仪）获取，目前由澳大利亚海洋观测系统联合设施（JAFOOS）管理。该设施是澳大利亚联邦科学与工业研究组织（Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation，CSIRO）海洋研究部与澳大利亚气象局研究中心（Bureau of Meteorology Research Centre，BMRC）的合作项目。
