WATER TEMPERATURE and Other Data from MULTIPLE SHIPS From World-Wide Distribution from 1960-02-03 to 1969-12-05 (NCEI Accession 9400139)

These data compromise the Kiel Atlas containing 2 files; indian1.dat, 2/3/60- 6/18/66 and indian2.dat, 7/20/60-12/5/69 of primary productivity data from the University of South Florida as received by NODC's Ocean Climate Laboratory. The data format is contained in the data documentation file; data parameters include: Ship, cruise, station, position, date, time, depth, transparency in meters, radiation in g cal/cubic cm. per day, zooplankton wet displacement volume at 200-0m, incident light as %, primary production rate as mgC/cubic meter, chlorophyll-a as mg/cubic meter, chlorophyll-c as MSPU/cubic meter or mg/cubic meter, phaeopigment as mg/cubic meter, total pigment (chlorophyll-a + phaeopigment) as mg/cubic meter, dry weight of particulate matter (seston) as mg/cubic meter, particulate carbon as mg/cubic meter, protein content of seston as mg/cubic meter, and astacin or non-astacin content of samples as mg/cubic meter.
