PACKAGE DESCRIPTION: This dataset includes chemical, meteorological, physical and underway - surface data collected from USCGC POLAR STAR in the Coral Sea, North Pacific Ocean, South Pacific Ocean and Tasman Sea from 2001-11-02 to 2002-04-23 and retrieved during cruise 32PZ20011102. These data include BAROMETRIC PRESSURE, CARBON DIOXIDE - AIR, CARBON DIOXIDE - PARTIAL PRESSURE - DIFFERENCE, Partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide, SALINITY and SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURE. The instruments used to collect these data include Carbon dioxide (CO2) gas analyzer and Shower head chamber equilibrator for autonomous carbon dioxide (CO2) measurement. These data were collected by Rik Wanninkhof, Esa. Peltola and Kevin Sullivan of NOAA Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory as part of the VOS_Polar_Star_2001 data set.
