Dissolved inorganic carbon, alkalinity, temperature, salinity and other variables collected from discrete sample and profile observations using CTD, bottle and other instruments from the POLARSTERN in the South Atlantic Ocean from 2007-11-28 to 2008-02-04 (NODC Accession 0108067)

NODC Accession 0108067 includes chemical, discrete sample, physical and profile data collected from POLARSTERN in the South Atlantic Ocean from 2007-11-28 to 2008-02-04 and retrieved during cruise (ANT-XXIV_2) and 06AQ20071128. These data include ALKALINITY, DISSOLVED INORGANIC CARBON, DISSOLVED OXYGEN, HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, NITRATE, Potential temperature (theta), SALINITY and WATER TEMPERATURE. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD and bottle. These data were collected by M. Hoppema and R. Bellerby of Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research and Ulrich Bathmann [affiliation unknown] as part of the CLIVAR_A12_ANT-XXIV_2 data set.

The International CLIVAR Global Ocean Carbon and Repeat Hydrography Program carries out a systematic and global re-occupation of select WOCE/JGOFS hydrographic sections to quantify changes in storage and transport of heat, fresh water, carbon dioxide (CO2), and related parameters.
