Navigation and meteorological data during campaign TARA_20120126Z of the Tara Oceans expedition 2009-2013

The Tara Oceans Expedition (2009-2013) sampled the world oceans on board a 36 m long schooner, collecting environmental data and organisms from viruses to planktonic metazoans for later analyses using modern sequencing and state-of-the-art imaging technologies. Tara Oceans Data are particularly suited to study the genetic, morphological and functional diversity of plankton. The present dataset contains navigation and meteorological data measured during one campaign of the Tara Oceans Expedition. Latitude and Longitude were obtained from TSG data.

塔拉海洋科考航次（2009-2013）依托一艘36米长的纵帆科考船对全球海域开展采样工作，采集了涵盖病毒至浮游后生动物的各类生物样本与环境数据，以供后续依托现代测序技术与顶尖成像手段开展分析研究。塔拉海洋数据集尤其适合用于探究浮游生物的遗传、形态及功能多样性。本数据集收录了塔拉海洋科考航次单次任务期间测得的导航与气象数据，其中纬度与经度数据均源自温盐记录仪（TSG）的采集数据。
