Surface underway chemical and physical data collected by Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory and NOAA ESRL researchers from the Nathaniel B. Palmer across multiple oceans between February 2000 and January 2001. These data include partial pressure of carbon dioxide, salinity, sea surface temperature, and barometric pressure.
Use Cases
- Modeling ocean carbon dioxide uptake based on partial pressure measurements
- Analyzing sea surface temperature and salinity correlations across ocean basins
- Studying seasonal variations in barometric pressure and ocean chemistry
- Calibrating autonomous carbon dioxide measurement instruments
Strengths
- Data collected by Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory and NOAA ESRL researchers
- Includes measurements from five distinct ocean regions
- Time range spans nearly a full year from 2000-02-15 to 2001-01-25
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
