12. Descriptive File on the Tape/Diskettes

The following is a listing of File 1 on the magnetic tape (or NDP044.DES on the floppy diskettes) distributed by CDIAC. This file is intended to complement the documentation and provide details (i.e., variable descriptions, formats, and units) about the data files on the magnetic tape or floppy diskettes.

Title of the Data Set

Surface Water and Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide and Nitrous Oxide Observations by Shipboard Automated Gas Chromatography: Results from Expeditions between 1977 and 1990.

Data Contributors

R. F. Weiss, F. A. Van Woy, P. K. Salameh
Scripps Institution of Oceanography
University of Calfornia, San Diego
La Jolla, California

Source and Scope of the Data

Note: The material provided on the magnetic tape or floppy diskettes for this section is essentially identical to the contents of Sections 4 (Source Information) and 5 (Methodology) of Part I of this documentation.

Data Format

Eighty-seven files are provided on this magnetic tape or these floppy diskettes, including (1) this descriptive file - File 1 on the magnetic tape or NDP044.DES on the floppy diskettes; (2) a file containing a list of expedition legs on which measurements were made - File 2 on the magnetic tape or TRACK.LST on the floppy diskettes; (3) a file containing a list of the data filenames corresponding (by number) to the expedition legs listed in File 2 (or TRACK.LST) - File 3 on the magnetic tape or DATA.LST on the floppy diskettes; (4) a FORTRAN-77 retrieval program to read and print any of the data files - File 4 on the magnetic tape or NDP044.FOR on the floppy diskettes; (5) a SAS input/output routine to read and print any of the data files - File 5 on the magnetic tape or NDP044.SAS on the floppy diskettes; and (6) - (87) 82 files containing the surface water and atmospheric CO₂ and N₂O data - Files 6-87 on the magnetic tape or *.AIR and *.H2O on the floppy diskettes [with full filenames as listed in File 3 (or DATA.LST)].

Table 2 (located in the documentation that accompanies this tape/diskettes) presents a partial listing of one of the surface water and atmospheric CO₂ and N₂O data files. The data files are formatted in the following way:

	CHARACTER SAMPTYP, HEADER*77, DATEMO*3, LATHEM, LONHEM

where

SAMPTYP	is a one-character code describing the type of samples being presented in the data file: A = atmospheric samples, S = surface seawater (i.e., gas equilibrated with surface seawater) samples;
HEADER	is a descriptive character string consisting of (1) the name of the expedition (e.g., AJAX Leg 1) and (2) the name of the research vessel (e.g., R/V Knorr);
DATEDA	is the numeric day of the month on which the sample was collected;
DATEMO	is the three-letter abbreviation (Jan, Feb, etc.) for the month in which the sample was collected;
DATEYR	is the final two digits of the year (since 1900) in which the sample was collected;
TIME	is the Greenwich Mean Time at which the sample was collected, expressed in 24-hour time from 0000 to 2359;
LAT	is the latitude (in decimal degrees) at which the sample was collected, with possible values from -90,000 to 90,000 (north latitudes are represented as positive);
LATHEM	is the latitudinal hemisphere in which the sample was taken; N = Northern Hemishpere, S = Southern Hemisphere;
LON	is the longitude (in decimal degrees) at which the sample was collected, with possible values from -180,000 to 180,000 (east longitudes are represented as positive);
LONHEM	is the longitudinal hemisphere in which the sample was taken: E = Eastern Hemisphere, W = Western Hemisphere;
PRESS	is the approximate sea level barometric pressure in mBar, interpolated from discrete values recorded on the ship at hydrographic stations;
H2OTMP	is the approximate surface water temperature in degrees Celsius, interpolated from discrete values recorded on the ship at hydrographic stations;
XN2O	is the dry gas mole fraction of nitruos oxide (N2O) in the sample, measured in parts per billion (ppb);
XCO2	is the dry gas mole fraction of carbon dioxide(CO2) in the sample, measured in parts per million (ppm);

13. Listing of the FORTRAN-77 Data Retrieval Program

The following is a listing of the FORTRAN-77 data retrieval program (File 4 on magnetic tape or NDP044.FOR on floppy diskette) provided by CDIAC to read and pring the surface water and atmospheric CO₂ and N₂O data (Files 6-87 on magnetic tape or files *.AIR and *.H2O on floppy diskettes). The job control language (JCL) statements (preceded by // or /*) shown below are not provided in the file on the tape/diskette; requestors must add JCL statement themselves if required. The statments required will vary for each operating system. The JCL statements shown below are provided to illustrate the statements that an individual using an IBM mainframe (e.g., IBM 3090) at ORNL would need to read these data from a nine-track, 6250 BPI, standard-labeled tape with character written in EBCDIC.

15. Verification of Data Transport

The surface water and atmospheric CO₂ and N₂O data can be read by using the FORTRAN or SAS input/output routines provided. Users should verify that the data file had been correctly transported to theri systems by generating some or all of the statistics presented in Table 3. These statistics were generated in FORTRAN but can be duplicated in other languages or statistical packages. If the statistics generated by the user differ from those presented here, the data files may have been corrupted in transport.

These statistics are presented only as a tool to ensure proper reading of the data files. They are not to be construed as summarizing the surface water and atmospheric CO₂ and N₂O data.

The following is a listing of the FORTRAN program used to generate the statistics described in Table 3:
