Bronze level automatically awarded US beta

This data has achieved Bronze level on 22 October 2015 which means this data makes a great start at the basics of publishing open data.

Temperature, salinity and dissolved oxygen profile data from globally distributed Argo profiling floats through the month of August 2015 for the Global Argo Data Repository, 1995-09-07 to 2015-08-31 (NODC Accession 0042682)

Description

These data represent all data collected from Argo profiling floats through the current month (August 2015). The U.S. National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC) operates the Global Argo Data Repository (GADR) as the long-term archive for the International Global Argo Project (for additional information about Argo, see http://www.argo.ucsd.edu/). Argo data have been archived by the US NODC on a monthly basis starting the second quarter of FY 2003. These data may include real-time and/or delayed-mode profiles of ocean temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen as well as related conductivity and/or pressure measurements. These data were collected by Argo profiling floats and other profiling float data not directly handled by the Argo data assembly centers. Profiling floats have been deployed since 1995 by several research projects.
