Bottle and CTD data collected in the Southwestern Atlantic Ocean during fisheries research cruises organized by the Instituto Nacional de Investigacion y Desarrollo Pesquero (INIDEP), Argentina, using several platforms, 1995 - 1998.

This dataset includes chemical, discrete sample, physical and profile data collected from L'ATALANTE in the Caribbean Sea and North Atlantic Ocean from 2003-04-12 to 2003-04-25 and retrieved during cruise CARIBINFLOW and CARINA_35A320030412. These data include DISSOLVED OXYGEN, HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, Potential temperature (theta), SALINITY and WATER TEMPERATURE. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD and bottle. These data were collected by Monika Rhein and Reiner Steinfeldt of Universität Bremen, Institut für Umweltphysik as part of the CARINA_35A320030412 dataset. The CARINA (CARbon dioxide IN the Atlantic Ocean) data synthesis project is an international collaborative effort of the EU IP CARBOOCEAN, and U.S. partners. It has produced a merged internally consistent dataset of open ocean subsurface measurements for biogeochemical investigations, in particular, studies involving the carbon system. The original focus area was the North Atlantic Ocean, but over time the geographic extent expanded and CARINA now includes data from the entire Atlantic, the Arctic Ocean, and the Southern Ocean.

Physical, nutrients, and other data were collected from CTD, MBT, XBT, and bottle casts from the Indian Ocean. Data were collected from 01 January 1976 to 31 December 1996. XBT parameters include temperature profiles. Bottle and CTD parameters include temperature, salinity, and concentrations of oxygen, silicate, nitrate, nitrite, ammonia, and alkalinity.
