data access

NEW: According to international data sharing policies, rapid public availability of data is much encouraged. We will make public data sets available from this site, as soon as we have the agreement of the individual PIs to do so. 

Data access is (at the moment still) restricted to the CARINA partners. The rules of data policy apply, that had been agreed on during the 'CO2 in the northern North Atlantic'-workshop in Delmenhorst, Germany (June 9-11, 1999). Have a look at general information for data policy details.

NOTE: Most of the data sets are public now. Contact the PIs for free accessible sites (e.g. CDIAC) to download these data. 

NEW: If you have any information you want to share with the CARINA-partners, but rather would not like to put on the info board page for general access, this can be placed on the secured data area. Just mail the information, stating that access should be restricted.

 

  This is the link to the data area (and internal information area). You will get access from this site, after being asked for your password. Your entry will be logged.

You can access the folders using the filenames that are indicated in the data inventory. Make sure to have ready a list of the files you would like to download. In some cases, for data that are free accessible, a link to the data source will be provided in the data inventory. To save transfer time, you do not have to download all files of a folder, the zip-files contain all the files for a cruise, the date of this file usually indicates the last modification. You may want to note this date in order to detect updated files in the future. Modifications will also be reported in the actual cruise.inf file. Please help to keep this information up-to-date!

Should you have problems to unzip the files, here is a link to WINZIP for an evaluation version of the software. (N.B.: If you have problems with long filenames and your FTP-program, try this.)
