The CRC handbook is mostly raw data on the properties of elements and compounds and physical constants and so forth.
Like anything, it is subject to intentional manipulation for disinformation purposes. But a lot of sharp cookies use that data daily in their work, and most will be quick to point out numbers that do not add up.

The question is where were the samples taken for the report. Was it chosen from an area friendly to those making the money or a scientific average of the oceans of the planet. I probably wouldn't have the background to fully understand the CRC handbook. They could make claims that I don't understand and I would glean nothing from their figures. It's my thought that the ocean off the coast of say India or New York Would be quite different than that in Alaska.
