PACKAGE DESCRIPTION: This dataset includes discrete sample and profile data collected during the R/V Meteor GO-SHIP A06 cruise (EXPOCODE 06MT20140317) in the Tropical Atlantic Ocean from 2014-03-17 to 2014-04-14. These data include temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, nutrients, chlorofluorocarbons, nutrients and other measurements. R/V Meteor Cruise was aimed at studying biogeochemical and physical processes in the tropical/subtropical Atlantic Ocean. Observations were carried out in the entire water column, from the sea floor to the sea surface.
