Salinity and other variables collected from Surface underway observations using not applicable and other instruments from unknown platforms in various oceans and seas World-Wide from 1965-01-01 to 1994-12-31 (NCEI Accession 0157055)

INVESTIGATOR:
Reidar Nydal - Norwegian University of Science and Technology

PACKAGE DESCRIPTION: This dataset includes Surface underway, chemical and physical data collected from unknown platforms in the Arctic Ocean, Barents Sea, Bay of Biscay, Indian Ocean, Ionian Sea, Mediterranean Sea, Atlantic Ocean, Pacific Ocean, Norwegian Sea, Southern Oceans, and Tasman Sea from 1965-01-01 to 1994-12-31. These data include DELTA CARBON-13, DELTA CARBON-14, SALINITY, SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURE and SIGMA-T. The instruments used to collect these data include not applicable. These data were collected by R. Nydal of Norwegian University of Science and Technology; Department of Physics and Mathematics; Radiological Dating Laboratory as part of the Carbon 14: Surface Measurements data set.
