These data include ALKALINITY, CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-11 (CFC-11), CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-12 (CFC-12), Carbon tetrachloride (CCL4), DISSOLVED INORGANIC CARBON, DISSOLVED OXYGEN, HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, NITRATE, NITRITE, OXYGEN - APPARENT UTILIZATION (AOU), PHOSPHATE, Potential temperature (theta), SALINITY, SIGMA-T, SILICATE and WATER TEMPERATURE. The instruments used to collect these data include Alkalinity titrator, CTD, Coulometer for DIC measurement and bottle. These data were collected by Douglas W. R. Wallace of Dalhousie University; Institute of Oceanography and Toste Tanhua of GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel, Kiel, Germany as part of the TTO_2004 Repeat Section Meteor 60/5 dataset. The International CLIVAR Global Ocean Carbon and Repeat Hydrography Program carries out a systematic and global re-occupation of select WOCE/JGOFS hydrographic sections to quantify changes in storage and transport of heat, fresh water, carbon dioxide (CO2), and related parameters. 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 https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/metadata/landing-page/bin/gfx?id=gov.noaa.nodc:0108085 Preview graphic PNG 0108085 NCEI ACCESSION NUMBER 2013-05-29 publication Carbon tetrachloride (CCL4) CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-11 (CFC-11) CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-12 (CFC-12) DISSOLVED INORGANIC CARBON (DIC) DISSOLVED OXYGEN HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE NITRATE NITRITE OXYGEN - APPARENT UTILIZATION (AOU) phosphate Potential temperature (theta) SALINITY SIGMA-T silicate total alkalinity WATER TEMPERATURE theme NODC DATA TYPES THESAURUS bottle coulometer for DIC measurement CTD titrator instrument NODC INSTRUMENT TYPES THESAURUS chemical discrete sample physical profile theme NODC OBSERVATION TYPES THESAURUS METEOR platform NODC PLATFORM NAMES THESAURUS GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel dataCentre NODC COLLECTING INSTITUTION NAMES THESAURUS Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center dataCentre NODC SUBMITTING INSTITUTION NAMES THESAURUS Climate Variability and Predictability (CLIVAR) project NODC PROJECT NAMES THESAURUS North Atlantic Ocean place NODC SEA AREA NAMES THESAURUS oceanography theme WMO_CategoryCode 2012-09-15 publication DE/GEOMAR > GEOMAR - Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel, Germany DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NODC > National Oceanographic Data Center, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce DOE/ORNL/ESD/CDIAC > Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center, Environmental Sciences Division, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, U.
