The GLODAPv3 Citation
Whenever GLODAPv3 is used, both the dataset and supporting paper must be cited using the publications below. This is essential as this gives the team traceable citations and also enables tracking of GLODAPv3 use. This is important for justifying and sustaining the effort.

For investigations that rely on a particular (set of) cruise(s), recognize the contribution of GLODAP data contributors by at least citing both the cruise DOI and any articles where the data are described, as well as, preferably, contacting principal investigators to explore opportunities for collaboration and co-authorship. To this end, DOIs are provided in the product files, as well as relevant articles and principal investigator names in the cruise summary table. Contacting principal investigators comes with the additional benefit that the principal investigators often possess expert insight into the data and/or specific region under investigation. This can improve scientific quality and promote data sharing.
