Dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total alkalinity, temperature, salinity and other variables collected from discrete sample and profile observations during the R/V Aurora Australis cruise AA0301, CLIVAR_SR03_2001 (EXPOCODE 09AR20011029) in the Southern Ocean from 2001-10-29 to 2001-12-13 (NCEI Accession 0108158)

This NCEI Accession includes discrete profile measurements of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total alkalinity, temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, nutrients and chlorofluorocarbons (CFC-11, CFC-12, CFC113) obtained during the R/V Aurora Australis cruise AA0301, CLIVAR_SR03_2001 (EXPOCODE 09AR20011029) in the Southern Ocean from 2001-10-29 to 2001-12-13. These data were collected by Bronte Tilbrook and Stephen R. Rintoul of Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization and Christopher Sabine of US DOC; NOAA; OAR; Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory as part of the CARINA/09AR20011029, CLIVAR_SR03_2001 data set.

The International CLIVAR Global Ocean Carbon and Repeat Hydrography Program carries out a systematic and global re-occupation of select WOCE/JGOFS hydrographic sections to quantify changes in storage and transport of heat, fresh water, carbon dioxide (CO2), and related parameters.
