Data sets
A comprehensive global oceanic dataset of discrete measurements of helium isotope and tritium during the hydrographic cruises on various ships from 1952-10-21 to 2016-01-22 (NCEI Accession 0176626).

Short summary
This paper describes an assembled dataset containing measurements of certain trace substances in the ocean, their distributions, and evolution with time. These substances, called tracers, result from a combination of natural and artificial processes, and their distribution and evolution provide important clues about ocean circulation, mixing, and ventilation. In addition, they give information about the global hydrologic cycle and volcanic and hydrothermal processes.
