NODC Standard Product: World Ocean Atlas 2005 (4 disc set) (NCEI Accession 0097967)

The World Ocean Atlas 2005 (WOA05) contains data files of objectively analyzed climatologies and related statistical fields of temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, Apparent Oxygen Utilization (AOU), percent oxygen saturation, phosphate, nitrate, and silicate for the world ocean. The data are available in two different ASCII formats (native gridded format and comma separated value format) on the DVD.

The data used to generate these statistics are available on DVD as the World Ocean Database 2005 (WOD05).

World Ocean Atlas 2005 Figures (WOA05F) (3 discs) contains a collection of "JPEG" and high resolution "PDF" images of objectively analyzed fields and statistics generated from the World Ocean Atlas 2005. The ocean variables included in the atlas are:

Disc 1: Temperature and Salinity
Disc 2: Oxygen (dissolved oxygen, apparent oxygen utilization, and percent oxygen saturation)
Disc 3: Dissolved inorganic nutrients (phosphate, nitrate, and silicate)
