pH, alkalinity, temperature, salinity and other variables collected from discrete sample and profile observations using CTD, bottle and other instruments from the PROFESSOR SIEDLECKI in the North Atlantic Ocean from 1988-11-17 to 1988-11-26 (NODC Accession 0113592)

NODC Accession 0113592 includes chemical, discrete sample, physical and profile data collected from PROFESSOR SIEDLECKI in the North Atlantic Ocean from 1988-11-17 to 1988-11-26 and retrieved during cruise CARINA/67SL19881117. These data include ALKALINITY, DISSOLVED OXYGEN, HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, NITRATE, Potential temperature (theta), SALINITY, SILICATE, WATER TEMPERATURE and pH. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD and bottle. These data were collected by Aida F. Rios of Instituto de Investigaciones Marinas; Departamento de Oceanograffa as part of the CARINA/67SL19881117 data set.

The CARINA (CARbon dioxide IN the Atlantic Ocean) data synthesis project is an international collaborative effort of the EU IP CARBOOCEAN, and U.S. partners. It has produced a merged internally consistent data set of open ocean subsurface measurements for biogeochemical investigations, in particular, studies involving the carbon system. The original focus area was the North Atlantic Ocean, but over time the geographic extent expanded and CARINA now includes data from the entire Atlantic, the Arctic Ocean, and the Southern Ocean.
