This dataset contains contains chlorophyll data collected from 1958-1988 using multiple ships. Marine pigments, productivity, and associated chemistry data were collected in NE Atlantic (limit-40 W) and NW Atlantic (limit-40 W) as part of the Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS). This data base has approx. 12,000 stations in JGOFS format. Any particulars on the station data can be found in JGR-Oceans, 97:2279-2293; titled The Remote Sensing of Ocean Primary Productivity. Data was submitted by William Balch, Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science (RSMAS), University of Miami. Also, these data have been copied onto CD-Rom at Goddard for distribution with the CZCS.

Biological, physical, nutrients, sediment, and other data were collected using sediment sampler-grab, bottle and CTD casts in the Arabian Sea, North/South Pacific Ocean, and North Atlantic Ocean from 08 January 1995 to 08 April 1998. Data were submitted by Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution as part of the Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS) project. Biological data include detailed information on phytoplankton and zooplankton. Nutrients data includes nitrate, nitrite, phosphate, and silicate. The U.S. Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (U.S. JGOFS), conceived in 1984 and organized as a major ocean research program shortly thereafter, has conducted field and modeling investigations of the global ocean carbon cycle and the processes that regulate it for a decade and a half. It has brought together biological, chemical, physical and geological oceanographers and modelers in a multidisciplinary investigation of the pools and fluxes of carbon and associated biogenic elements in the ocean. U.S. JGOFS is a component of the international Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS), launched in 1987 under the aegis of the Scientific Committee on Oceanic Research (SCOR). Designated a core project of the International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme (IGBP) two years later, JGOFS has involved scientists from more than 30 countries in field and modeling studies. Its research program included national and international process studies conducted in many ocean basins, time-series programs and a global survey of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the ocean. The U.S. JGOFS research program comprised four basin-scale process studies, two long-term time-series programs, participation in a global survey of (CO2) and a synthesis and modeling project. This CD-ROM contains the data acquired during the four U.S. JGOFS process studies, conducted in the North Atlantic, the equatorial Pacific, the Arabian Sea and the Southern Ocean. Data from other components of U.S. JGOFS will be published in future volumes.

The Nansen bottle/ primary productivity/ pigment, sediment trap; and Conductivity, Temperature and Depth (CTD) data were collected in North Atlantic Ocean, NW Atlantic (limit-40 W) as part of Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS) project. Data was collected from Ships CAPE HATTERAS and WEATHERBIRD. The data was collected over a period spanning from October 20, 1988 and September 13, 1991. 13 files containing Sediment trap data (368 records); Primary Productivity Data (268 records); Bottle data (from 16 stations and 1,364 records); CTD data (95 stations and 52,635 records); and Pigment data (693 records) was submitted by Dr. Anthony H. Knapp, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Woods Hole, MA. Data has been processed and is available in F022-CTD-Hi Resolution file format of NODC. The Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS) is an international and multi- disciplinary study with a primary objective of understanding global oceanic carbon and nutrient cycles. The National Science Foundation has funded two time-series stations as part of JGOFS, one in Hawaii (HOTS) and a second in Bermuda, the Bermuda Atlantic Time-series study (BATS). BATS was funded under NSF Grant # OCE-8801089. This data set is comprised of BATS data primarily from Year 3, with additional data included from BATS years 1 and 2: 1) pigment data (chlorophylls a and b, peridinin, fucoxanthin, lutein, carotene, and others) collected during BATS Year 2 (These are the same data filed under NCEI Accession number 9200088.) 2) Nutrient data (total carbon dioxide, nitrate+nitrite, silicate, and phosphate in μmol/kg) collected as part of BATS Year 3 (Cruises 25 - 36, October 1990 - September 1991). CTD and particulate organic carbon and nitrogen (in μg/kg) and bacteria counts were also provided with these data. 3) Primary productivity data for BATS Years 1-3, Cruises 1-36. The trap array had MULTITRAPS at 150, 200, 300 and 400 meters. The array was allowed to drift for a 72-hour period (drift was considerable, up to 100 km). Total percentages of nitrogen, total organic carbon, and total carbon were utilized to calculate particulate flux in mg/m2/d. Data were collected in the immediate area of the nominal station location at 31 degrees 50'N, 64 degrees 10'W.
