Whereas all data are available as netCDF files, only some data streams have ASCII versions. The reason for including ASCII files is to satisfy the requirements of users who have been using them throughout WOCE. The data streams that contain ASCII files are Bathymetry, Hydrography, Subsurface Floats (not profiling floats), Current Meters, Shipboard ADCP (Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers), Sea Level (Fast Delivery and Delayed Mode), Surface Fluxes, and Sea Surface Salinity.
