Resource Abstract:
Data products and in situ oceanographic data collected in response to the Deepwater Horizon Event in the Gulf of Mexico (May 2010). The Global Temperature and Salinity Profile Programme (GTSPP) received the near-realtime data as TESAC messages for GLIDERs from the Global Telecommunication System (GTS). The data are available in three formats, CSV (comma separated value), NetCDF (network common data form) and the GTSPP ASCII formats. An inventory file is available, including plots of each vertical profile. A .kml file is available for Google Earth display. This data collection is updated weekly by automated processes performed by NODC. Select the version of the data with the largest version number to ensure downloading the most recent data available from NODC.
