Making global measurements of ocean temperature and salinity (T-S) quickly and easily accessible to users is the primary goal of the Global Temperature-Salinity Profile Program (GTSPP). A cooperative international project, the GTSSP seeks to develop and maintain a global ocean T-S resource with data that are both up-to-date and of the highest quality possible. Both real-time data transmitted over the Global Telecommunications System (GTS), and delayed-mode data received by the NODC are acquired and incorporated into a continuously managed database. Countries contributing to the project are Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, Russia, and the United States. 1, record 1, English, - Global%20Temperature%2DSalinity%20Profile%20Project
