Hydrographic Atlas of the Southern Ocean Data
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
The hydrographic atlas consists primarily of gridded fields of temperature, salinity and oxygen at 42 standard depths with a resolution of 1x1 degrees south of 30 degrees South.
Description
Additionally hydrographic station data are available as a separate data set. The idea to compile this hydrographic atlas of the Southern Ocean was prompted by a considerable increase in the number of observations for the Southern Ocean during the last two decades.
A large collection of historical data not incorporated into previous work (&Climatological Atlas of the World Ocean&, Levitus, 1982; &Southern Ocean Atlas&, Gordon, Molinelli, Baker, 1982) was used in addition to the data from these atlases. Data from more than 38.000 stations were validated very carefully. Gridded fields were calculated subsequently by Objective Interpolation.

The maps include error maps which allow estimates of the reliability of the analyzed parameter field. The atlas was produced in cooperation with AWI in Bremerhaven (Germany) and the Arctic and Antarctic Research Institute in St. Petersburg (Russia).
Many other institutions have provided data and many scientists have freely shared their data and knowledge to support the project. The validated station data set and the gridded data can be obtained. The atlas is available for DM 500. including shipping (surface mail).
All texts, tables and graphics from the Atlas can be found in the World Wide Web: 'awi.de/en/home/'. The gridded data set is available via FTP: &ftp.awi-bremerhaven.de/pub/TPH/tsoasc.grd.Z&
