PACKAGE DESCRIPTION: This dataset includes chemical, discrete sample, physical and profile data collected from DISCOVERY in the North Atlantic Ocean from 2004-04-04 to 2004-05-10. These data include CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-11 (CFC-11), CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-113 (CFC-113), CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-12 (CFC-12), Carbon tetrachloride (CCL4), DISSOLVED INORGANIC CARBON (DIC), DISSOLVED OXYGEN, HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, NITRATE, Partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide - water, Potential temperature (theta), SALINITY, TOTAL ALKALINITY (TA), WATER TEMPERATURE, phosphate and silicate. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD and bottle. These data were collected by S. Cunningham of National Oceanography Centre, Southampton and Ute Schuster of University of East Anglia; School of Environmental Sciences as part of the CARINA/74DI20040404, CLIVAR A05_2004 data set. CDIAC associated the following cruise ID(s) with this data set: CARINA/74DI20040404 and CLIVAR A05_2004 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.
