The data file consists of 36 columns, including latitude, longitude, sea surface temperature (SST, Jan-Dec), sea surface salinity (SSS, Jan-Dec), calculated total alkalinity from January through December (TA, Jan-Dec). 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:0157795 Preview graphic PNG 0157795 NCEI ACCESSION NUMBER 2017-01-16 publication SALINITY SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURE total alkalinity theme NODC DATA TYPES THESAURUS chemical physical surface underway theme NODC OBSERVATION TYPES THESAURUS Pohang University of Science and Technology, School of Environmental Science and Engineering dataCentre NODC COLLECTING INSTITUTION NAMES THESAURUS Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center dataCentre NODC SUBMITTING INSTITUTION NAMES THESAURUS Alboran Sea Andaman Sea or Burma Sea Arabian Sea Bass Strait Bay of Bengal Bay of Biscay (Golfe de Gascogne) Bering Sea Bismarck Sea Coastal Waters of Southeast Alaska and British Columbia Coral Sea Davis Strait English Channel (La Manche) Great Australian Bight Gulf of Alaska Gulf of California Gulf of Guinea Gulf of Oman Indian Ocean Inner Seas off the West Coast of Scotland Irish Sea and St. George's Channel Japan Sea Labrador Sea Laccadive Sea Malacca Straits Mediterranean Sea Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary Mozambique Channel North Atlantic Ocean North Pacific Ocean North Sea Norwegian Sea Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument Philippine Sea Rio de la Plata Rose Atoll Marine National Monument Sawu Sea Sea of Okhotsk Skagerrak Solomon Sea South Atlantic Ocean South Pacific Ocean Southern Ocean Tasman Sea place NODC SEA AREA NAMES THESAURUS oceanography theme WMO_CategoryCode 2012-09-15 publication DOE/ORNL/ESD/CDIAC > Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center, Environmental Sciences Division, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, U.
