Abstract

Hydrographical measurements undertaken within German contribution Beam Trawl Survey (BTS) in the North Sea in the first quarter of each year. The dataset contains vertical profiles of water temperature and salinity taken at haul positions. The data were proceeded according to the recommendations of the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) and interpolated vertically into 1-dbar intervals.
