      Parks, Justine; Bringas, Francis; Hanstein, Craig; Krummel, Lisa; Cowley, Rebecca; Sprintall, Janet; Cheng, Lijing; Cirano, Mauro; Cruz, Samantha; Goes, Marlos; Kizu, Shoichi; Reseghetti, Franco (Scripps Institution of Oceanography, Climate, Atmospheric Sciences, and Physical Oceanography, University of California, San Diego, San Diego, California, 2021)
      Since the 1970s, EXpendable BathyThermographs (XBTs) have provided the simplest and most cost‐efficient solution for rapid sampling of temperature vs. depth profiles of the upper part of the ocean along ship transects. This ...
    • XBT/XCTD standard test procedures for reliability and performance tests of expendable probes at sea. Revised draft. 

      Sy, Alexander; Wright, Darren (TC SOT, JCOMM Ship Observations Team, 2000)
      The best way to assure a quality XBT or XCTD is to implement a standard set of procedures for testing the probes. This document proposes a three step process for insuring XBT/XCTD quality: 1. Start with a set of specifications ...
    • YARD: A Tool for Curating Research Outputs. 

      Peer, Limor; Dull, Joshua (2020)
      Repositories increasingly accept research outputs and associated artifacts that underlie reported findings, leading to potential changes in the demand for data curation and repository services. This paper describes a ...
