Partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide, dissolved inorganic carbon, alkalinity, temperature, salinity and other variables collected from discrete sample and profile observations using CTD, bottle and other instruments from the METEOR in the North Atlantic Ocean, North Greenland Sea and Norwegian Sea from 1992-07-01 to 1992-08-31 (NCEI Accession 0113985)

PACKAGE DESCRIPTION: This dataset includes chemical, discrete sample, physical and profile data collected from METEOR in the North Atlantic Ocean, North Greenland Sea and Norwegian Sea from 1992-07-01 to 1992-08-31 and retrieved during cruise 06MT19920701 (06MT021/5-6). These data include ALKALINITY, DISSOLVED INORGANIC CARBON, HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, Partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide, Potential temperature (theta), SALINITY and WATER TEMPERATURE. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD and bottle. These data were collected by K Pegler of Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization and G. Graf and O. Pfannkuche [affiliation unknown] as part of the CARINA/06MT19920701 data set. The CARINA (CARbon dioxide IN the Atlantic Ocean) data synthesis project is an international collaborative effort of the EU IP CARBOOCEAN, and U.S. partners. It has produced a merged internally consistent dataset of open ocean subsurface measurements for biogeochemical investigations, in particular, studies involving the carbon system. The original focus area was the North Atlantic Ocean, but over time the geographic extent expanded and CARINA now includes data from the entire Atlantic, the Arctic Ocean, and the Southern Ocean.
