Surface Ocean CO2 Atlas (SOCAT) version 4, 1968-11-16 to 2014-12-31 (NCEI Accession 0161129)

This dataset is Surface Ocean CO2 Atlas (SOCAT) version 4. This dataset includes surface underway, chemical, meteorological, navigational and physical data collected from unknown platforms in the world-wide oceans from 1968-11-16 to 2014-12-31. These data include BAROMETRIC PRESSURE, LATITUDE, LONGITUDE, Partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide - water, SALINITY and SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURE.

The Surface Ocean CO2 Atlas (SOCAT) is an international effort, endorsed by the International Ocean Carbon Coordination Project (IOCCP), the Surface Ocean Lower Atmosphere Study (SOLAS) and the Integrated Marine Biogeochemistry and Ecosystem Research program (IMBER), to deliver a uniformly quality-controlled surface ocean CO2 database.
