CARS2009 covers the full global oceans, but includes only temperature and salinity fields - it does not yet include nutrient maps. It was based on World Ocean Database 2005 (WOD05) [July 2008 Update], surface-pressure-corrected Argo global archives to May 2009, WOCE Global Hydrographic Program (v3.0), and many other datasets available up to 2008. Occasional Updates section below for history of sub-version releases. |
