Oceanographic profile data collected aboard multiple platforms worldwide from 1959-05-26 to 2012-06-03 (NCEI Accession 0098794)

NODC Accession 0098794 contains physical and chemical oceanographic profile data collected aboard multiple ships worldwide from 1959-05-26 to 2012-06-03. These data include AIR TEMPERATURE - DRY BULB, AIR TEMPERATURE - WET BULB, BAROMETRIC PRESSURE, BIOLOGICAL DATA, CHLOROPHYLL, DEPTH - BOTTOM, DISSOLVED OXYGEN, HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, NITRATE, NITRITE, PARTICULATE ORGANIC CARBON, PHAEOPHYTIN, PRIMARY PRODUCTIVITY, SALINITY, SEA STATE, SECCHI DEPTH, TOTAL ALKALINITY (TA), WATER TEMPERATURE, WAVE HEIGHT, WAVE PERIOD, WEATHER, WIND DIRECTION, WIND FORCE, WIND SPEED, cloud amount/frequency, cloud types, nitrate + nitrite content (concentration), pH, phosphate, and silicate. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD, bathythermograph - XBT, bottle, meteorological sensors, and secchi disks. Mathieu Ouellet from Fisheries and Oceans Canada submitted these data, which were collected by multiple organizations.
