Dissolved inorganic carbon, alkalinity, temperature, salinity and other variables collected from discrete sample and profile observations using CTD, bottle and other instruments from the KNORR, MAURICE EWING and others in the Andaman Sea or Burma Sea, Arabian Sea and others from 1983-10-10 to 1998-10-20 (NCEI Accession 0115689)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Metadata Last Checked: January 26, 2026 | Last Modified: 2014-01-09T00:00:00.000+00:00
This dataset includes chemical, discrete sample, physical and profile data collected from KNORR, MAURICE EWING, METEOR, NATHANIEL B. PALMER and THOMAS G. THOMPSON in the Andaman Sea or Burma Sea, Arabian Sea, Bay of Bengal, Bering Sea, Coral Sea, Gulf of Alaska, Indian Ocean, Laccadive Sea, North Atlantic Ocean, North Greenland Sea, North Pacific Ocean, Norwegian Sea, South Atlantic Ocean, South Pacific Ocean and Tasman Sea from 1983-10-10 to 1998-10-20 and retrieved during cruise Keeling Shore Based Data. These data include ALKALINITY, Calcium, DELTA CARBON-13, DISSOLVED INORGANIC CARBON, DISSOLVED OXYGEN, NITRATE, NITRATE + NITRITE CONTENT (CONCENTRATION), NITRITE, Nickel, PHOSPHATE, SALINITY, SILICATE and WATER TEMPERATURE. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD and bottle. These data were collected by Charles D. Keeling and Peter R. Guenther of Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO) as part of the Keeling Shore Based Carbon Analyses dataset. The World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) was a major component of the World Climate Research Program with the overall goal of better understanding the ocean's role in climate and climatic changes resulting from both natural and anthropogenic causes. The CO2 survey took advantage of the sampling opportunities provided by the WOCE Hydrographic Program (WHP) cruises during this period between 1990 and 1998. The final collection covers approximately 23,000 stations from 94 WOCE cruises.
