Oceanography TOGA TROPICAL OCEAN and GLOBAL ATMOSPHERE PROGRAMME TROPICAL SUBSURFACE DATA SET TOGA Tropical Subsurface Data Centre The TOGA Tropical Subsurface Data Centre in Brest operates within the frame- work of both the IOC's International Oceanographic Data Exchange (IODE) system and the Joint IOC-WMO Integrated Global Ocean Services System (IGOSS). The Centre collects subsurface ocean observations for the tropical oceans (30°N-30°S) from the following sources: 1. tropical oceans observations from the IGOSS network; 2. additional vertical temperature profiles from XBT's and from drifting or moored buoys with thermistor chains, not sent over the GTS; 3. time series of temperature and conductivity (salinity) at fixed depth from moored thermistor chains; 4. surface temperature and conductivity (salinity) data and vertical profiles of temperature and conductivity as from CTD's, bottle casts, and WCTD's; and 5. other subsurface ocean temperature and conductivity (salinity) measurements from process-oriented intensive oceanographic observation projects in the tropical oceans. Initially, data are collected from radio transmissions, with fully digitized and qual- ity controlled observations added with time. The subsurface thermal data described above are analyzed, and the Centre pro- duces quality-controlled Level II-B data sets for the tropical oceans for the ten-year period (1985-1994). The Centre is also responsible for provision of these data sets on magnetic tape in GF-3 format to other TOGA Data Centres and to the World Data Centers, Oceanography at appropriate Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original World Data Center A--Oceanography.
