This dataset includes chemical, discrete sample, physical and profile data collected from POLARSTERN in the Indian Ocean, South Atlantic Ocean and Southern Oceans (> 60 degrees South) from 2002-11-24 to 2003-01-23. These data include CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-12 (CFC-12), DISSOLVED INORGANIC CARBON (DIC), DISSOLVED OXYGEN, HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, NITRATE, NITRITE, SALINITY, WATER TEMPERATURE and silicate. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD, Coulometer for DIC measurement and bottle. These data were collected by Dieter K. Fütterer and Mario Hoppema of Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research (AWI) as part of the CLIVAR_A12_ANTXX_2 dataset. CDIAC associated the following cruise ID(s) with this dataset: ANTXX_2 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.
