Physical, chemical, and biological data collected during the JGOFS (India) Arabian Sea Process Study Program, 1992-1997 (NCEI Accession 9900162)
This dataset includes physical, chemical and biological data collected during the JGOFS (India) Arabian Sea Process Study Program.
The Department of Ocean Development, New Delhi has sponsored this study. The broad goals of this program are mentioned in this dataset. The field campaigns were conducted during 1992-97 in seven cruises onboard ORV Sagar Kanya. The details of measurement protocols can be found in the relevant publications, though they generally follow the JGOFS protocols.
The large number of parameters simultaneously measured over seasons covering the central Arabian Sea. The results of this study brought in several new insight such as rate of air-sea flux of CO2, carbon fixation rates resulting from winter cooling and open ocean upwelling as well as the coupling of physics with chemistry and biology. The processed data along with other published information incorporated in the dataset, will hopefully be used by scientists all over the world to resolve the mysteries of the Arabian Sea - a unique tropical ocean basin.
