WATER TEMPERATURE and other data from USS STEPHEN W. GROVES from 1994-01-02 to 1994-01-30 (NCEI Accession 9400014)

The data in this accession were collected from USS STEPHEN W. GROVES between January 2, 1994 and Janaury 30, 1994. The real time data of water temperature at varying depth bathythermograph (XBT) was recorded in stripcharts by the US Navy. Radio logs are forms that contain time, weather latitude/longitude, vessel id, ship id, etc. These are radioed every two hours to some military center. One line per strip chart. Some strip charts have time /date /ship id /latitude /longitude annotated on the strip chart. Fifteen stripcharts and radio logs were submitted to NODC.

本批次数据集采集自美国海军舰艇斯蒂芬·W·格罗夫斯号（USS STEPHEN W. GROVES），采集时段为1994年1月2日至1994年1月30日。美国海军通过带状记录图表（stripchart）记录了由投弃式温深探空仪（XBT，Expendable Bathythermograph）采集的不同深度实时水温数据。无线电日志（radio logs）为包含时间、气象参数、经纬度、舰艇编号、船舶标识等信息的表单，此类日志每两小时通过无线电传输至相关军事中心。每张带状记录图表对应一行日志条目，部分图表上还标注有时间、日期、船舶标识、经纬度等信息。本次共计15份带状记录图表及无线电日志已提交至国家海洋数据中心（NODC，National Oceanographic Data Center）。
