Data were collected from multiple institutions in support of WOCE and JGOFS from 01 January 1998 to 31 December 2000. Bottle parameters include concentration profiles of dissolved oxygen, nitrate, nitrite, silicate, chlorophyll-a, silicate, dissolved organic carbon, and total phaeopigments. CTD parameters include profiles of temperature and salinity. This dataset is available to the public for a wide variety of uses including scientific research and analysis. completed historicalArchive NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information ncei.info@noaa.gov https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/contact HTTPS NCEI Contact Information Information for contacts at NCEI. information pointOfContact asNeeded NCEI Accession 0000721 was revised and a new version of the archival package was published.
