Global Near Real-Time Temperature and Salinity Profile Data from the GTSPP project from 01 January 1999 to 29 October 2001 (NODC Accession 0000591)

Physical, current, meteorological, and other data were collected from XBT casts, buoys, and other instruments from a World-Wide distribution. Data were collected from 01 January 1999 to 29 October 2001. Data were submitted by the Marine Environmental Data Service (MEDS) in support of the Array for Real-time Geostrophic Oceanography (Argo), the Gulf of Mexico NOAA/NMFS Ship of Opportunity (SOOP), the World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE), and the Global Temperature-Salinity Pilot Project (GTSPP). Physical parameters include profiles of temperature and salinity. Current parameters include current direction and speed. Meteorological data include dry bulb temperature, wind speed, wind direction, relative humidity, and air pressure.本数据集涵盖物理、海流、气象及其他类型观测数据，采集自全球范围内布设的XBT（抛弃式温深计，Expendable Bathythermograph）投放作业、浮标及其他观测仪器。 数据采集时段为1999年1月1日至2001年10月29日。 本数据集由海洋环境数据服务中心（Marine Environmental Data Service, MEDS）提交，用于支撑实时地转海洋学阵列（Array for Real-time Geostrophic Oceanography, Argo）、墨西哥湾美国国家海洋和大气管理局/国家海洋渔业局机遇船舶计划（Gulf of Mexico NOAA/NMFS Ship of Opportunity, SOOP）、全球海洋环流实验（World Ocean Circulation Experiment, WOCE）以及全球温盐试验计划（Global Temperature-Salinity Pilot Project, GTSPP）的相关研究工作。 物理观测参数包含温度与盐度剖面数据；海流观测参数包含流向与流速信息；气象观测数据涵盖干球温度、风速、风向、相对湿度及大气压强。
