- Explanation
- BODC protocols are based on the Open Archival Information System (OAIS) model enabling BODC to iterate towards compliance with the on-going evolution and development of community requirements including FAIR (Findable,Accessible,Interoperable,Reusable), TRUST (Transparency, Responsibility, User community, Sustainability, Technology) and CARE (Collective Benefit, Authority to Control, Responsibility, Ethics). Data managers quality assure submissions and assemble the metadata necessary for curation. Submissions (as received) are placed in a long-term accession and stored in triplicate across multiple sites. Appropriate data are transferred into a standard internal format with source variable names mapped to controlled vocabularies, documentation assembled, and metadata loaded into BODC databases. Access to these data is through direct request, the BODC website and through partner repositories such as SeaDataNet. Access control is attained by assigning a data policy to each set of data and this policy is used to administer access when data are requested. Discovery metadata is aligned with EU INSPIRE (through MEDIN) and SeaDataNet community standards. Data are converted to open community formats including Ocean Data View ASCII and SeaDataNet NetCDF, with data described using terms from the NERC vocabulary server. BODC submission agreements are documented on the BODC website and customer service is assured with a dedicated requests team that serve data following local regulations including General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) 2018 and Environmental Information Regulations (EIR) 2004.

- Statement
- Estimates of anthropogenic carbon derived from hydrographic cruise occupations at 24.5N have been combined with volume transport estimates produced by the RAPID-MOCHA-WBTS (RAPID-Meridional Overturning Circulation and Heatflux Array-Western Boundary Time Series) programme at 26N to generate a time series of anthropogenic carbon transports between 2004 and 2012. Anthropogenic carbon is calculated using measurements of temperature, salinity, dissolved inorganic carbon, total alkalinity, oxygen, inorganic nutrientsand chlorofluorocarbons collected on cruises between the east coast of USA and Africa between 1992 and 2011. The volume transport time series is derived from measurements of temperature, salinity, pressure and water velocity from an array of moored instruments that extend from the east coast of the Bahamas to the continental shelf off Africa east of the Canary Islands, combined with estimates of the transport in the Florida Strait derived from sub-sea cable measurements calibrated by regular hydrographic cruises, and satellite scatterometer measurements (wind driven Ekman transport). The data were provided to the British Oceanographic Data Centre (BODC) for long-term archive and data publication in the BODC Published Data Library
