Partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide, salinity and other variables collected from time series observations from Mooring PIRATA_6S10W in the South Atlantic Ocean (NCEI Accession 0100217)

INVESTIGATOR:
Nathalie Lefèvre - Sorbonne University (SU)

PACKAGE DESCRIPTION: This dataset includes chemical, meteorological, physical and time series data collected from Mooring PIRATA_6S10W in the South Atlantic Ocean from 2006-06-08 to 2017-07-10. These data include partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide - water, sea surface temperature, sea surface salinity, dissolved oxygen and barometric pressure. The instruments used to collect these data include Bubble type equilibrator for autonomous carbon dioxide (CO2) measurement and Carbon dioxide (CO2) gas analyzer. The Global CO2 Time-series and Moorings Project involves international groups from 18 countries who have mounted sensors on moored buoys to provide high resolution time-series measurements of atmospheric boundary layer and surface ocean CO2 partial pressure (pCO2). The CO2 Time-series and Moorings Project is coordinated by UNESCO International Ocean Carbon Coordination Project (IOCCP).
