How can you have access to the data?

You can have access to the data using websites from many data centers e. g.:

You will find the data – but it w

ill take a

while....

CARBOOCEAN data portal

How can it be found?Use the link from CARBOOCEAN homepage

How can it be found?Use Google

Or dataportal.carbocean.org

But what is it?

• a search engine like Google

• searches three World Data Centers (CDIAC, IFREMER and WDC-MARE) for data

• provides all metadata in the same format!

You can search by parameter, scientist, research vessel, project, region, etc

What did I do with all the released data?

• All data is archived at a World Data Center while Intellectual Property Rights are obeyed

• All data is quality controlled• Public underway data goes directly to Alex

(CDIAC)• Public bottle data goes to Bob and Alex• Unpublished data is archived at WDC-MARE• All data goes into the CARBOOCEAN database!

What is the resulting product?

• CARBOOCEAN underway database

• (Extended) CARINA dataset which also includes data that was not included in CARINA – basically all pre-CARBOOCEAN data (ask Bob Key for details)

CARBOOCEAN underway database

Some facts:• Time frame 1978 until 2006

• Contains approx. 2,8 million measurements

• Includes all public underway data from CDIAC as well as data from recent projects (CAVASSOO, CARINA, etc), data from CARBOOCEAN PIs that was delivered within the past 2 years and CARBOOCEAN data

• All CDIAC underway data is now in a uniform format

• Derived parameters from CDIAC data is currently being calculated by Are Olsen to the standards according to guidelines from Tskuba 2004

• By beginning of 2007 will all underway data include the same parameters derived to the same standard (as far as possible)

• All public data will be go back to CDIAC

What will happen soon?

Underway database: include American VOS line data, Australian and Japanese data

Data exchange with Mersea IP

Data portal: National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC/NOAA) will join soon!

The End....
