Average Water Column Temperature, Summer, Gridded [Ashjian]
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/255.052

Summary
This data set contains the average water column temperature from the Pacific
Marine Arctic Regional Synthesis (PacMARS) conductivity-temperature-depth
(CTD) compilation to a grid of 0.5 degrees. Measurements were taken on
latitude from 63.5 to 78 degrees north and 2 degrees and longitude from -180
to -135 degrees east. There are three columns in the file: longitude,
latitude, and temperature (degrees C). All missing values are denoted as NaN.
There are no temperatures at latitudes greater than 75 degrees north. These
data were gathered in July through September.
