This dataset includes biological, chemical, discrete sample, physical, profile and time series profile data collected from LA CURIEUSE in the Indian Ocean from 1990-01-27 to 1995-01-08. These data include AMMONIUM (NH4), CHLOROPHYLL A, DISSOLVED INORGANIC CARBON (DIC), DISSOLVED OXYGEN, HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, NITRATE, Potential temperature (theta), SALINITY, TOTAL ALKALINITY (TA), WATER TEMPERATURE, phosphate and silicate. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD and bottle.

These data were collected by Diana Ruiz-Pino and Alain Poisson of Center National de la Recherche Scientifique; Laboratoire de Physico-Chimie Moléculaire and Catherine Jeandel of the Observatory Midi-Pyrénées as part of the Timeseries_KERFIX data set. CDIAC associated the following cruise ID(s) with this data set: 35UCKERFIXTS and KERFIX

The Global CO2 Time-series and Moorings Project involves international groups from 18 countries who have mounted sensors on moored buoys to provide high resolution time-series measurements of atmospheric boundary layer and surface ocean CO2 partial pressure (pCO2). The CO2 Time-series and Moorings Project is coordinated by UNESCO International Ocean Carbon Coordination Project (IOCCP).
