Major Program Data

Major Oceanographic Programs for which NODC has Data

  • Argo Daily Data - Argo daily data include real-time and delayed-mode profiles of ocean temperature and salinity (and conductivity, if any) measured by the Argo profiling floats.

  • World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) Version 3 on DVD and an online version of the same DVDs.

  • Texas-Louisiana Shelf Circulation & Transport Processes Study (LATEX) CD-ROM Set - This 5 disc set was produced in cooperation with Texas A&M University. The major field components taken between April 1992 and December 1994 were moored current meter measurements, drifting buoy data, hydrography, acoustic doppler current profiling data, meteorological buoy data, and MiniSpec (directional) and SeaData (non-directional) wave instruments data.

  • Global Temperature-Salinity Profile Program (GTSPP) - A cooperative international project with Canada's Marine Environmental Data Service (MEDS), the GTSPP seeks to develop and maintain a global ocean Temperature-Salinity resource with data that are both up-to-date and of the highest quality possible.
