Selected data from the process study cruises have been combined into a collection of comprehensive data objects. The data products as well as the interface through which they are accessed are under development and will change with time. More information including a complete description of the merging process is available.

Message from the Data Management Office:

    We're hoping for feedback on the merged data products and LAS interface.   Please take some time to send us your comments regarding this collection of data or if there are merged data products of interest to you that do not appear in the table below.   Any known problems with either the data products or the interface will be recorded as we become aware of them.



Begin by selecting a merged data product to view with the JGOFS customized Live Access Server (LAS).  A tutorial is available to help you get started using LAS.
