Temperature, salinity and other variables collected from discrete sample and profile observations using CTD, bottle and other instruments from the USCGC POLAR STAR in the Arctic Ocean and Beaufort Sea from 2002-07-15 to 2002-08-13 (NCEI Accession 0115609)

This dataset includes chemical, discrete sample, physical and profile data collected from USCGC POLAR STAR in the Arctic Ocean and Beaufort Sea from 2002-07-15 to 2002-08-13 and retrieved during cruise CARINA/32PZ20020715. These data include HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, NITRATE, NITRITE, PHOSPHATE, SALINITY, SILICATE and WATER TEMPERATURE. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD and bottle. These data were collected by Robert S. Pickart of Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution as part of the CARINA/32PZ20020715 dataset. The CARINA (CARbon dioxide IN the Atlantic Ocean) data synthesis project is an international collaborative effort of the EU IP CARBOOCEAN, and U.S. partners. It has produced a merged internally consistent dataset of open ocean subsurface measurements for biogeochemical investigations, in particular, studies involving the carbon system. The original focus area was the North Atlantic Ocean, but over time the geographic extent expanded and CARINA now includes data from the entire Atlantic, the Arctic Ocean, and the Southern Ocean.
