The International WOCE bibliography was started in October 1994 to provide a convenient reference source for WOCE Investigators as well as a record of the achievements of the project. It is a collaborative project between the WOCE IPO, the WOCE Data Information Unit (at the University of Delaware) and the UK National Oceanographic Library at the Southampton Oceanography Centre. As of 15th July 2002 the bibliography contained 6336 articles, of which 1677 published and 1485 unpublished papers were directly attributable to WOCE.
