MESSAGE for investigators measuring GEOTRACES key parameters on section cruises

**This message is for the attention of investigators measuring GEOTRACES key parameters on section cruises only**

In order to maximise the inclusion of key parameter data from GEOTRACES sections we have decided to extend the deadline for data submission to GDAC (or your relevant data centre) until the 31st of December 2016.

Note this is only for key parameter data collected from GEOTRACES section cruises.

For reference GEOTRACES key parameters can be found here.

A list of GEOTRACES section cruises can be found here. (Once you access the table please click on the arrow available on the “type” column to order the cruises and view GEOTRACES section cruises). 

Thank you for your support,

Reiner Schlitzer and Ed Boyle, co-chairs of the GEOTRACES Scientific Steering Committee
Andrew Bowie and Alessandro Tagliabue, co-chairs of the Data Management Committee
Walter Geibert and Maeve Lohan, co-chairs of the Standards & Intercalibration Committee
