Dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total alkalinity, temperature, salinity and other variables collected from discrete sample and profile observations during the R/V Franklin cruise CLIVAR_I02_2000 (EXPOCODE 09FA20000926) in the Indian Ocean from 2000-09-26 to 2000-11-12 (NCEI Accession 0108074)

This NCEI Accession includes discrete profile measurements of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total alkalinity, temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen and nutrients during the R/V Franklin cruise CLIVAR_I02_2000 (EXPOCODE 09FA20000926) in the Indian Ocean from 2000-09-26 to 2000-11-12. These data were collected by Bronte Tilbrook and Susan E. Wijffels of Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization as part of the CLIVAR_I02_2000 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.
