LDEO Database (Version 2012): Global Ocean Surface Water Partial Pressure of CO2 Database: Measurements Performed During 1957-2013 (NCEI Accession 0059946)

INVESTIGATORS:
Taro Takahashi - Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory (LDEO)
Alex Kozyr ORCID logo - Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center (CDIAC)
Stewart C. Sutherland - Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory (LDEO)

PACKAGE DESCRIPTION: This dataset includes Surface underway, chemical, meteorological and physical data collected in global oceans from 1957-10-22 to 2013-03-21. These data include BAROMETRIC PRESSURE, Partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide - water, SALINITY, SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURE and WATER TEMPERATURE. The instruments used to collect these data include Carbon dioxide (CO2) gas analyzer. These data were collected by Alex Kozyr of Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center and Taro Takahashi and Stewart Sutherland of Columbia University; Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory as part of the LDEO Database (Version 2012) data set. CDIAC associated the following cruise ID with this data set: LDEO20120101
