Description
Due to a format error a part of the original salinity measurements about 10 percent) were assigned to wrong positions and thus led to erroneous monthly and yearly means for a lot of boxes. So the salinities of version 1.0 should not be used further. The temperature values of version 1.0 were not affected by this error. In version 1.1 (http://cera-www.dkrz.de/WDCC/ui/Entry.jsp?acronym=KNSC_hyd_v1.1) this error of the salinities is corrected. All salinity data were again quality controlled as before. 6.2 percent of the salinity data were flagged as bad. Mean values were calculated in the same way as in version 1.0 .
