Quality In the dataset over the 38-year period of 1965-2002, we used the value of water between 25 degrees N to 55 degrees S along the cruise track between Tokyo and Antarctica, during the period between 15 November and 28 December of each year.

Although the sea surface water was sampled with a plastic bucket or pump (8 m), no significant difference in the chl a between sampling procedures was found. The chl a was determined colourimetrically until 1980 (except in 1967 and 1972) and fluorometrically since 1981. The data collected colourimetrically was corrected to a concentration corresponding to the fluorometric measurements. Difference in the chl a between the solvents was not significant.
