Bomb 14C has been used as a tracer for CO2 in ocean surface water to study CO2 exchange between atmosphere and ocean. Using ordinary cargo ships for sampling, we have been able to cover some parts of the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans for certain periods. A total number of 520 samples from 89 locations were measured during the last 15 years. The data are presented both in tables and graphs. A maximum 14C concentration (Δ14C) of ca 20% was observed in temperate northern latitudes, and a few per cent lower at southern latitudes. A seasonal trend in the 14C variation, with summer maximum and winter minimum, was observed both in downwelling and upwelling areas.
