Pan-Antarctic (90S-45S) temperature and salinity profiles compilation
This profile compilation contains absolute salinity profiles computed from ship CTD, Argo floats and seal-borne profilers in the Southern Ocean (90°S-45°S) since 1972, using the GSW toolbox. It provides with an opportunity to investigate the broad scale climatology of the Southern Ocean hydrography on and off the continental shelf and facilitate localized timeseries analysis of the variability across various timescales.
