Dataset description
SOIREE Summary of CTD profiles
These data were compiled to enable a comparison of the
extracted chlorophyll data with traces of fluorescence
and transmittance from the CTD profiles.
Acquisition description
See SOIREE Preliminary Voyage Report
For more information refer to Gall et al (2001)
"Phytoplankton processes (Part 2): Rates of primary
production and factors controlling algal growth during the
Southern Ocean Iron RElease Experiment (SOIREE)".
