Dissolved inorganic carbon, alkalinity, temperature, salinity and other variables collected from discrete sample and profile observations using CTD, bottle and other instruments from STENA ARCTICA in the South Atlantic Ocean and Southern Oceans from 1989-02-14 to 1989-03-17 (NCEI Accession 0113893)

PACKAGE DESCRIPTION: This dataset includes chemical, discrete sample, physical and profile data collected from STENA ARCTICA in the South Atlantic Ocean and Southern Oceans (> 60 degrees South) from 1989-02-14 to 1989-03-17. These data include CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-11 (CFC-11), DISSOLVED INORGANIC CARBON (DIC), DISSOLVED OXYGEN, HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, NITRATE, 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 Leif Anderson of University of Bergen; Bjerknes Center for Climate Research; Geophysical Institute as part of the CARINA/58A119890214 data set. CDIAC associated the following cruise ID(s) with this data set: CARINA/58A119890214 and SWEDARP 88/89 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.
