Arctic Ocean profile measurements collected by the R/V Oden during the LOMROG expedition from August to September 2007. The dataset includes discrete measurements of dissolved inorganic carbon, total alkalinity, pH, temperature, salinity, oxygen, and CFCs. It was contributed by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
Use Cases
- Modeling Atlantic water pathways across the Lomonosov Ridge based on hydrographic profiles.
- Analyzing carbon chemistry and acidification trends in the Arctic Ocean based on dissolved inorganic carbon and pH measurements.
- Studying deep water circulation between basins based on temperature, salinity, and CFC data.
- Calibrating regional oceanographic models based on discrete profile measurements.
Strengths
- Data covers a specific Arctic Ocean expedition from 2007-08-12 to 2007-09-19.
- Includes multiple key oceanographic parameters: dissolved inorganic carbon, total alkalinity, pH, temperature, salinity, oxygen, and CFCs.
- Dataset is part of the NOAA Ocean Carbon and Acidification Data System (OCADS).
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
- Data may reflect geographic and temporal bias inherent to a single expedition in 2007.
