Navigation and meteorological data during campaign TARA_20120223Z of the Tara Oceans expedition 2009-2013

The Tara Oceans Expedition (2009-2013) sampled the world oceans on board a 36 m long schooner, collecting environmental data and organisms from viruses to planktonic metazoans for later analyses using modern sequencing and state-of-the-art imaging technologies. Tara Oceans Data are particularly suited to study the genetic, morphological and functional diversity of plankton. The present dataset contains navigation and meteorological data measured during one campaign of the Tara Oceans Expedition. Latitude and Longitude were obtained from TSG data.

塔拉海洋科考航次（Tara Oceans Expedition）于2009年至2013年间实施，依托一艘长36米的纵帆船对全球海洋开展采样作业，收集了从病毒至浮游后生动物的各类生物样本与环境数据，以供后续通过现代测序与前沿成像技术开展相关分析。塔拉海洋数据集尤其适用于研究浮游生物的遗传、形态及功能多样性。本数据集包含塔拉海洋科考航次单次作业期间采集的导航与气象数据，其经纬度信息源自TSG数据。
