Temperature, salinity and other variables collected from discrete sample and profile observations using CTD, bottle and other instruments from NOAA Ship OCEANOGRAPHER in the Coral Sea, North Pacific Ocean and others from 1987-06-06 to 1987-07-05 (NCEI Accession 0160542)

PACKAGE DESCRIPTION: This dataset includes chemical, discrete sample, physical and profile data collected from NOAA Ship OCEANOGRAPHER in the Coral Sea, North Pacific Ocean, Solomon Sea and South Pacific Ocean from 1987-06-06 to 1987-07-05. These data include CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-11 (CFC-11), CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-12 (CFC-12), DISSOLVED OXYGEN, HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, NITRATE, Potential temperature (theta), SALINITY, WATER TEMPERATURE, phosphate and silicate. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD and bottle. These data were collected by S. Hayes of US DOC; NOAA; OAR; Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory as part of the GLODAPv2_31OC19870606 data set. CDIAC associated the following cruise ID(s) with this data set: TEW_WST2 The GLobal Ocean Data Analysis Project (GLODAP) is a cooperative effort to coordinate global synthesis projects. The central objective of this project is to generate a unified data set, a uniformly calibrated open ocean data product on inorganic carbon and carbon-relevant variables, to help determine the global distributions of both natural and anthropogenic inorganic carbon, including radiocarbon. These estimates provide an important benchmark against which future observational studies will be compared. They also provide tools for the direct evaluation of numerical ocean carbon models.
