Trawler-collected bottom temperatures from the Northeast US Shelf
These are ~one mile binned-averaged hourly ocean bottom temperatures obtained with thermistors attached to commercial fishing trawls. The Vemco Minilog instrument used in most cases is accurate to 0.2 degC. Since is not reporting fast enough (90 seconds) to resolve the vertical structure, only the bottom values are reported here.\n\ncdm_data_type = Point\nVARIABLES:\ntime (seconds since 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z)\nlatitude (degrees_north)\nlongitude (degrees_east)\nnumber_of_obs\ntemperature (Sea Water Temperature, degree_C)\nmin_temperature (Sea Water Temperature, degree_C)\nmax_temperature (Sea Water Temperature, degree_C)\nnumber_of_depth_obs\ndepth (m)\nmin_depth (meters)\nmax_depth (meters)\nstddev_depth (meters)\n
Turtle-collected water column temperatures from the NE US Shelf
These include approximately 10 points with each loggerhead turtle dive.\n\ncdm_data_type = Point\nVARIABLES:\ncount\ntime (seconds since 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z)\nlatitude (degrees_north)\nlongitude (degrees_east)\ntemperature (Sea Water Temperature, degree_C)\ndepth (m)\n
