Title: Oceanographic temperature, salinity, oxygen, silicate, nitrate, and nitrite measurements collected using bottle from BAFFIN in the North Atlantic during 1966 (NODC Accession 0040186)
Abstract: ASCII data format. These data should be compared against WOD cruise 18000394 (acc# 6600000). Some of the Silicate data in accession 6600000 appears to include questionable or erroneous values in the sense that the position of the decimal point is a factor of 10 too high.
