    en: This dataset includes chemical, discrete sample, physical and profile data
      collected from MELVILLE in the Arabian Sea, Bay of Bengal, Bering Sea, Gulf
      of Aden, Indian Ocean, Mediterranean Sea - Eastern Basin, Mediterranean Sea
      - Western Basin, North Atlantic Ocean, North Greenland Sea, North Pacific Ocean,
      Norwegian Sea, Red Sea, South Atlantic Ocean and South Pacific Ocean from 1972-07-18
      to 1978-04-28 and retrieved during cruise GEOSECS Atlantic, GEOSECS Indian and
      GEOSECS Pacific. These data include DELTA CARBON-14, DELTA HELIUM-3, DISSOLVED
      INORGANIC CARBON (DIC), DISSOLVED OXYGEN, HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, NITRATE, NITRITE,
      PHOSPHATE, Potential temperature (theta), RADIUM ISOTOPES, SALINITY, SILICATE,
      TOTAL ALKALINITY (TA), Tritium (Hydrogen isotope) and WATER TEMPERATURE. The
      instruments used to collect these data include CTD and bottle. These data were
      collected by Taro Takahashi of Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory (LDEO), Robert
      M. Key of Princeton University; Department of Geosciences; Program in Atmospheric
      and Ocean Sciences (AOS), H. Göte Östlund of Rosenstiel School of Marine and
      Atmospheric Science (RSMAS), and Minze Stuiver of University of Washington (UW)
      as part of the GEOSECS Atlantic, GEOSECS Indian and GEOSECS_Pacific dataset.
