Information on the scientists who provided the different parameters can be found in the cruise report. Additionally, for US GO-SHIP cruises, this information is usually in the comments section in the text headers of the Exchange bottle files.
Users are also encouraged to acknowledge the funding program that supported the data collection in their publication. For US GO-SHIP data this is the NSF/NOAA funded U.S Repeat Hydrography Program.
Abstract
Search for SOCCOM data.
CCHDO (CLIVAR and Carbon Hydrographic Data Office) supports oceanographic research by providing access to high quality, global, vessel-based CTD and hydrographic data from GO-SHIP, WOCE, CLIVAR and other repeat hydrography programs. These data are openly accessible and served in standardized community formats (WHP-Exchange, WOCE, and netCDF). CCHDO also manages public and non-public CTD data for use by the global Argo and OceanSITES programs.
