PACKAGE DESCRIPTION: This dataset includes discrete sample and profile data collected during the R/V Knorr GEOTRACES 2011 cruise KN204A/B (EXPOCODE 316N20111106) in the North Atlantic Ocean from 2011-11-06 to 2011-12-11. These data include temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, nutrients, and chlorofluorocarbons (CFC-11, CFC-12, CFC113). A hydrographic survey consisting of rosette/CTD sections and Bio-Optical casts in the mid-latitude eastern Atlantic Ocean was carried out during November-December 2011. The R/V Knorr departed Woods Hole, MA on 6 November 2011. The cruise ended in Praia, Cabo Verde on 11 December 2011.
