Abstract Neil Brown MK3 and MK4 Conductivity-Temperature-Depth (CTD) instruments were used to measure pressure, temperature and conductivity through the water column during research and monitoring cruises between 1983 and 2000. Here we present raw CTD discrete data from the upcast collected during Voyage 007 on the Africana, in the Benguela Current Large Marine Ecosystem (BCLME) region on the west coast of South Africa, between 16 March 1983 and 21 March 1983.
