"Contains the observed depth profile, surface, and plankton data (WOD01-01 through WOD01-07), and all the standard depth level data (WOD01-08). The CD-ROM contents are based on the different instrument types used to sample data (OSD, XBT, MBT, high resolution Conductivity-Temperature-Depth (CTD), bottles, and low resolution CTD, undulating oceanographic recorders, floats, buoys, and continuous measurements). World Ocean Database 2001 (WOD01) is an update of the World Ocean Database 1998 (WOD98). It expands on WOD98 by including new variables, data types, and additional historical as well as modern observations.

"Observed depth data"--disc 1-7.

System requirements: IBM-compatible computer with CD-ROM drive.
