This document outlines how the thermodynamic properties of seawater are evaluated using the International Thermodynamic Equation Of Seawater – 2010 (TEOS-­‐‑10). This thermodynamic ...

The method described here is a modification of th e technique described by Stalcup (1991). Salinities for tens of thousands of samples were measured by the method during the WHP revisit cruises of the R/V ...

Global hydrographic surveys have been carried out approximately every decade since the 1970s through research programs such as GEOSECS, TTO/SAVE, WOCE / JGOFS, and CLIVAR. However, global repeat hydrography ...

Generating reference-quality water sample data involves procedures learned over years of experience. Some simple-to-implement aspects of practice do, however, lead to improved reliability and documentation of water sample ...

This manual describes “best practices” for acquiring ocean-velocity data using Lowered Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (LADCP) systems. Adherence to the recommendations in this manual should help ensure that the acquired ...

Oxygen sensors currently afford one of the few oppor tunities to acquire accurate measurements of a biogeochemical parameter at the same vertical re solution as CTD data. Electrochemical cells have been used to ...

A number of laboratories throughout the world have developed analytical systems for measuring dissolved chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) in seawater and have active programs to study the distribution of these substances in the ...

The Global Ocean Ship-based Hydrographic Investigations Program (GO-SHIP) brings together scientists with interests in physical oceanography, the carbon cycle, marine biogeochemistry and ecosystems, ...
