Serial Station Data (Water samplers, STD, CTD, BT)

Outline of Serial Station Data (Water samplers, STD, CTD, BT)

This is the data such as temperature, salinity obtained by the ocean survey using the Niskin bottle, CTD, XBT, etc. Some data at 1 station are divided into each measuring equipment while some data are incorporated into the identified station (depends upon the data providers). In addition, about CTD, XBT, etc. there are mainly the representative low resolution data with the observation depth and the high-resolution data with 5m or less and 20 layers or more with vertical density but as to the same observation, where data with different resolution is submitted, please note as they are treated as a separate station.
