Temperature and salinity profile data collected from XBT, CTD, MBT and Bottle casts from multiple platforms by the National Institute of Oceanography (NIO), India, in the Bay of Bengal from August 28, 1976 to January 07, 2009 (NCEI Accession 0055418)

Physical data were collected from Bottle, MBT, XBT, and CTD casts from the Andaman and Burma Seas, Bay of Bengal, Malacca Straits, and the Indian Ocean. Data were collected from August 28, 1976 to January 07, 2009. Data were collected and submitted by the National Institute of Oceanography (NIO), India and provided to the Global Temperature-Salinity Pilot Project (GTSPP). Physical parameters include temperature and salinity profiles.
