PACKAGE DESCRIPTION: This dataset includes chemical, discrete sample, physical and underway - surface data collected from Pacific Celebes in the Alboran Sea, Arabian Sea, Arafura Sea, Banda Sea, Bass Strait, Bay of Bengal, Bay of Fundy, Bismarck Sea, Caribbean Sea, Ceram Sea or Seram Sea, Coral Sea, Flores Sea, Gulf of Aden, Gulf of Mexico, Indian Ocean, Ionian Sea, Java Sea, Laccadive Sea, Ligurian Sea, Malacca Straits, Mediterranean Sea - Eastern Basin, Mediterranean Sea - Western Basin, North Atlantic Ocean, North Pacific Ocean, Olympic Coast National Marine Sanctuary, Red Sea, Solomon Sea, South Atlantic Ocean, South China Sea (Nan Hai), South Pacific Ocean, Tasman Sea, Timor Sea and Tyrrhenian Sea from 2007-06-11 to 2012-03-18 and retrieved during cruise NOC_CNCo_Pacific_Celebes_2007-2010. These data include ALKALINITY, DISSOLVED INORGANIC CARBON, DISSOLVED OXYGEN, SALINITY and WATER TEMPERATURE. The instruments used to collect these data include Alkalinity titrator, CTD, Coulometer for DIC measurement and bottle. These data were collected by David Hydes and Zongpei Jiang of National Oceanography Centre, Southampton as part of the VOS_Pacific_Celebes_2007_2012 data set.

VARIABLES / PARAMETERS:

Dissolved Inorganic Carbon
Abbreviation: DIC
Observation type: discrete
In-situ / Manipulation / Response variable: In-situ observation
Measured or calculated: Calculated
Replicate information: Repeated measurements on the same batch of seawater (n>=3) in the lab gave consistent results (precision for the whole dataset estimated as 2.0±0.7 μmol kg- 1). But the reproducibility of the measurements of duplicate samples (n=10, root mean square deviation is 3.92 μmol kg-1) is not as good as the lab result. This may mainly be due to the fact that these duplicate samplings were taken when the ship's speed was ~13.5 knot.
Standardization description: In order to standardize the results, Certified Reference Materials (CRM) from A.G. Dickson, Scripps Institution of Oceanography were analysed as standards to calibrate the instrument at the beginning and end of each day of analysis. A daily correction factor was applied to all measured values according to Millero et al. (1998).
CRM batch number: 90 91 93 97 99 105 109
Total alkalinity
Abbreviation: TA
Observation type: discrete
In-situ / Manipulation / Response variable: In-situ observation
Measured or calculated: Measured
Type of titration: Titration with HCl (~0.10 mol/L) uses a closed cell procedure with an open cell, with a pH half cell electrode (glass bodied Orion 8101SC, Ross, USA) and an Ag/AgCl reference electrode (model 6.0729.100, Metrohm, Switzerland).
Cell type (open or closed): open cell
Curve fitting method: Non-linear curve fitting (least-squares) approach (Dickson et al., 2007)
Uncertainty: Repeated measurements on the same batch of seawater (n>=3) were undertaken every day prior to sample analysis in order to assess the precision of the method. The precision was estimated for the whole dataset to be 2.0±0.7 μmol kg-1 for DIC and 1.2±0.5 μmol kg-1 for TA. The accuracy of the measurement is assured by the standardization using the CRM from A.G. Dickson, Scripps Institution of Oceanography on daily basis.
