INTAROS NIVA PANARCTIC BIOGEOCHEMICAL OCEAN DATA ------------------------------------------------ The zipped folder contains the following .mat files for use in Matlab: intaros_niva_AT.mat -- total alkalinity data intaros_niva_Chl.mat -- chlorophyll a data intaros_niva_CT.mat -- dissolved inorganic data intaros_niva_NO3.mat -- nitrate data intaros_niva_O2.mat -- dissolved oxygen data intaros_niva_Phos.mat -- phosphate data intaros_niva_Si.mat -- silicate data Each .mat file contains a single structure variable with fields containing coordinate data, variable data, and further metadata detailing sources and final variable data units. For example, to load the chlorophyll data and view the structure fields enter: load intaros_niva_Chl.mat outdChl Please refer to the following links and references for the original WOD/GLODAPv2/ICES data: World Ocean Database (WOD, 2018 version) https://www.nodc.noaa.gov/OC5/WOD/pr_wod.html Boyer, T.P., O.
