These data include CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-11 (CFC-11), CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-113 (CFC-113), CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-12 (CFC-12), Cesium-137, DELTA CARBON-13, DELTA CARBON-14, DISSOLVED INORGANIC CARBON (DIC), DISSOLVED OXYGEN, HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, NITRATE, NITRITE, Potential temperature (theta), SALINITY, SIGMA-T, TOTAL ALKALINITY (TA), Total Organic Carbon (TOC), Tritium (Hydrogen isotope), WATER TEMPERATURE, pH, phosphate and silicate. The instruments used to collect these data include Alkalinity titrator, CTD, Coulometer for DIC measurement, bottle and spectrophotometer.

These data were collected by Shuichi Watanabe of JAMSTEC; Mutsu Institute for Oceanography (MIO), Masao Fukasawa of Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology (JAMSTEC), and Akihiko Murata of Meteorological Research Institute as part of the CLIVAR_P06EW_2003 (BEAGLE 2003) dataset. CDIAC associated the following cruise ID(s) with this dataset: CLIVAR_P06EW_2003 (BEAGLE 2003)

The International CLIVAR Global Ocean Carbon and Repeat Hydrography Program carries out a systematic and global re-occupation of select WOCE/JGOFS hydrographic sections to quantify changes in storage and transport of heat, fresh water, carbon dioxide (CO2), and related parameters.
