PACKAGE DESCRIPTION: This dataset includes chemical, discrete sample, physical and profile data collected from MELVILLE in the Bering Sea, North Pacific Ocean, Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument, South Pacific Ocean and Southern Oceans (> 60 degrees South) from 1973-08-22 to 1974-06-09. These data include DELTA CARBON-14, DELTA HELIUM-3, DISSOLVED INORGANIC CARBON (DIC), DISSOLVED OXYGEN, HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, NITRATE, NITRITE, Potential temperature (theta), RADIUM ISOTOPES, SALINITY, TOTAL ALKALINITY (TA), Tritium (Hydrogen isotope), WATER TEMPERATURE, phosphate and silicate. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD and bottle. These data were collected by Taro Takahashi of Columbia University; Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory and Robert M. Key of Princeton University; Department of Geosciences; Program in Atmospheric and Ocean Sciences as part of the GEOSECS_Pacific data set. CDIAC associated the following cruise ID(s) with this data set: GEOSECS Pacific
