PACKAGE DESCRIPTION: This dataset includes chemical, discrete sample, physical and profile data collected from THOMAS G. THOMPSON in the South Pacific Ocean from 2013-10-25 to 2013-12-20. These data include CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-11 (CFC-11), CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-113 (CFC-113), CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-12 (CFC-12), DELTA CARBON-14, DISSOLVED OXYGEN, HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, NITRATE, NITRITE, SALINITY, Sulfur Hexafluoride (SF6), WATER TEMPERATURE, phosphate and silicate. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD and bottle.
These data were collected by Nicholas Bates of Bermuda Institute of Ocean Sciences, James Swift of University of California - San Diego; Scripps Institution of Oceanography, Craig A. Carlson of University of California - Santa Barbara and James Moffett of University of Southern California as part of the GO_SHIP_P21_325020131025 data set. CDIAC associated the following cruise ID(s) with this data set: TGT303 and U.S. GEOTRACES East Pacific Zonal Transect (EPZT)
