PACKAGE DESCRIPTION: This dataset includes chemical, discrete sample, physical and profile data collected from FRANKLIN in the South Pacific Ocean from 2001-05-24 to 2001-07-07 and retrieved during cruise (09FA200105_1) and 09FA20010524. These data include ALKALINITY, CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-11 (CFC-11), CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-113 (CFC-113), CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-12 (CFC-12), Carbon tetrachloride (CCL4), DELTA HELIUM-3, DISSOLVED INORGANIC CARBON, DISSOLVED OXYGEN, HELIUM, HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, NITRATE, PHOSPHATE, Potential temperature (theta), SALINITY, SILICATE 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 Bronte Tilbrook of Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization, Christopher Sabine of US DOC; NOAA; OAR; Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory and S. Wijffels [affiliation unknown] as part of the CLIVAR_P15S_2001 data set. The International CLIVAR Global Ocean Carbon and Repeat Hydrography Program carries out a systematic and global re-occupation of select WOCE/JGOFS hydrographic sections to quantify changes in storage and transport of heat, fresh water, carbon dioxide (CO2), and related parameters.

VARIABLES / PARAMETERS:

Dissolved Inorganic Carbon
Abbreviation: DIC
Observation type: discrete
In-situ / Manipulation / Response variable: In-situ observation
Measured or calculated: Calculated
Detailed sampling and analyzing information: The TCO2 analysis was done by coulometry. The system consisted of a coulometer (UIC, Inc.) coupled with a SOMMA.ne
CRM batch number: Batch 52
Total alkalinity
Abbreviation: TA
Observation type: discrete
In-situ / Manipulation / Response variable: In-situ observation
Measured or calculated: Measured
Cell type (open or closed): closed cell
Curve fitting method: The total alkalinity was measured on a potentiometric titration system similar to that described by Brewer et al. (1986).
Uncertainty: For 37 samples the calculated CRM alkalinity on both legs of the cruise the cruise was 2224.72 +/- 1.03 μmol/kg. Duplicate analyses for alkalinity showed an absolute difference between duplicates of 1.03 +/- 0.91 μmol/kg (1 s.d.; n=150).
