Dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total alkalinity, temperature, salinity and other variables collected from discrete sample and profile observations during the R/V Aurora Australis cruise AU0806, CLIVAR_SR03_2008 (EXPOCODE 09AR20080322) in the Indian Ocean from 2008-03-22 to 2008-04-17 (NCEI Accession 0109900)

This dataset includes discrete profile measurements of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total alkalinity, temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, nutrients, chlorofluorocarbons (CFC-11, CFC-12, CFC113) and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) during the R/V Aurora Australis cruise AU0806, CLIVAR_SR03_2008 (EXPOCODE 09AR20080322) in the Indian Ocean from 2008-03-22 to 2008-04-17. These data were collected by Bronte Tilbrook and Stephen R. Rintoul of Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO) as part of the CLIVAR_SR03_2008 dataset. The International CLIVAR Global Ocean Carbon and Repeat Hydrography Program carries out a systematic and global re-occupation of select WOCE/JGOFS hydrographic sections to quantify changes in storage and transport of heat, fresh water, carbon dioxide (CO2), and related parameters.
