The NIOZ contribution to THOR Hendrik M. van Aken Thorshavn, 25-26 June 2009 NIOZ is part of the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO)
Near-annual hydrographic surveys since 1990. Data until 2005 available at WOCE (&CLIVAR) data base
AR7E data • CTD T, S and O2 high-resolution profiles • water sample data O2, nutrients, CO2, CFCs (2007)
Changes of the hydrographic properties of the Central Water Continued warming and salinification!
What to do with data? • Existing data of AR7E surveys to IfMH. (NIOZ data only? Or also ifMH and SOC data?) • Existing mooring data to THOR data base • repeat AR7E survey in 2009 and 2011 • recover and re-deploy profiling mooring in 2009, 2010 and 2011 • new AR7E data to THOR data base • new mooring data to THOR data base • writing scientific papers!!
