Global Ocean Dimethylsulfide Observations and Climatology, by J. Kettle et al.

Dimethylsulfide (DMS) measurements (15748 samples) made in the surface global oceans during 1972-1998 are given as raw data samples, along with the associated environmental data data at the time of data collection, and as 1x1 global objectively analyzed grids. The grids are for both a monthly climatology (12 monthly grids), and an overall annual mean. ALL THE DATA AND DOCUMENTATION ARE ONLINE AND AVAILABLE AT NO COST.
