This dataset includes Surface underway, chemical, meteorological, navigational and physical data collected from unknown platforms in the world-wide oceans from 1968-11-16 to 2013-12-31. These data include BAROMETRIC PRESSURE, LATITUDE, LONGITUDE, Partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide - water, SALINITY and SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURE. The instruments used to collect these data include Carbon dioxide (CO2) gas analyzer.

These data were collected by Alex Kozyr of Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center, Karl Smith of US DOC; NOAA; OAR; Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory, Benjamin Pfeil and Are Olsen of University of Bergen; Bjerknes Center for Climate Research; Geophysical Institute and Dorothee Bakker of University of East Anglia; School of Environmental Sciences as part of the SOCAT Database V3 data set.
