aSalinity corrections are in parts per million, i.e. divided factor by 1000 prior to addition
bA factor "NA" indicates that the measurements were not retained in the database, generally due to unusual scatter or excessive calibration offset determined by Wanninkhof et al. 2003
cSalinity, oxygen, nitrate, phosphate, and silicate factors are from Gouretski and Jancke (2001) and are additive. Their oxygen factors were/are listed in ml/l and were multiplied by 43.55 to convert to µmol/kg prior to application. Carbon factors are from Wanninkhof et al. 2003 and are additive
dCastle et al. 1998 suggested that the oxygen values for this cruise were low by 7.5 µmol/kg (~0.17 ml/l). Gouretski and Jancke (2001) suggested an oxygen correction of 5.05 µmol/kg for stations 32−83. We inadvertently applied both corrections to these data. The oxygen values for this cruise should be redused by 7.5 µmol/kg to back out Castle et al. 1998, then the correction for this cruise will be consistent with other oxygen adjustments.
