XBT (Expendable Bathythermograph) 01jan 5jan01 - 27jan01 Vertical temperature profiles using xbt's depth [m] temperature [deg C] Selected profiles from the 200-600 line offshore stations and in the Palmer basin (station 600.040). Drake Passage transect roughly every 5 minutes of Latitude in accordance with Janet Sprintall and Teri Chereskin's sampling strategy. XBT launched from the back deck of the Laurence M.
