Box 1006 Dartmouth Nova Scotia B2Y 4A2 Canada gregoryd@mar.dfo-mpo.gc.ca processor Government of Canada, Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Maritimes Region, Science Branch originator The Ocean Science hydrographic database is a collection of temperature and salinity data for the area roughly defined by 35? - 80? N and 42? - 100? W. The data comes from a variety of sources including hydrographic bottles, CTD casts (either up or down casts), spatialy and temporally avereged Batfish tows, and expendable, digital or mechanical bathythermographs. Near real-time data in the form of IGOSS Bathy or Tesac messages are also included. The database currently consists of approximately 600,000 profiles and 28 million individual observations from 1910 to the present. Updates are made monthly.The purpose of the database is to obtain information on the long-term variability of temperature and salinity on the Canadian east coast continental shelf.
