Temperature, salinity and other variables collected from discrete sample and profile observations using CTD, bottle and other instruments from the METEOR in the North Atlantic Ocean from 2003-06-26 to 2003-07-21 (NODC Accession 0115682)

NODC Accession 0115682 includes chemical, discrete sample, physical and profile data collected from METEOR in the North Atlantic Ocean from 2003-06-26 to 2003-07-21 and retrieved during cruise CARINA/06MT20030626 and WOCE AR04. These data include CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-11 (CFC-11), CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-12 (CFC-12), HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, Potential temperature (theta), SALINITY, SULFUR HEXAFLUORIDE (SF6) and WATER TEMPERATURE. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD and bottle. These data were collected by J. Mortensen of Institute of Marine Research - Norway as part of the CARINA/06MT20030626, WOCE AR04 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.

NODC登录号0115682包含2003年6月26日至2003年7月21日在北大西洋海域METEOR航次采集的化学、离散样品、物理及剖面数据，相关数据由CARINA/06MT20030626航次与WOCE AR04航次获取。该数据集涵盖的参数包括三氯一氟甲烷（CFC-11，CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-11）、二氯二氟甲烷（CFC-12，CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-12）、静压力、位温（θ，Potential temperature）、盐度、六氟化硫（SF6，SULFUR HEXAFLUORIDE）以及海水温度。采集所用仪器为温盐深仪（CTD）与采水器。上述数据由挪威海洋研究所的J. Mortensen作为CARINA/06MT20030626、WOCE AR04数据集的组成部分完成采集。

CARINA（大西洋二氧化碳，CARbon dioxide IN the Atlantic Ocean）数据合成项目是欧盟IP项目CARBOOCEAN与美国合作方联合开展的国际协作计划。该项目已整合生成一套内部一致的开放海洋次表层测量数据集，用于生物地球化学研究，尤其是碳循环相关研究。项目最初的研究聚焦北大西洋海域，但随着项目推进，研究覆盖的地理范围逐步扩大，如今CARINA数据集已涵盖大西洋全域、北冰洋与南大洋的相关观测数据。
