PACKAGE DESCRIPTION: This dataset includes Surface underway data collected from RYOFU MARU in the Bismarck Sea, East China Sea (Tung Hai), North Pacific Ocean, Philippine Sea, Sea of Japan and South Pacific Ocean from 1989-11-17 to 1995-03-07. These data include BAROMETRIC PRESSURE, Partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide - atmosphere, Partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide - water, SALINITY and SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURE. The instruments used to collect these data include Carbon dioxide (CO2) gas analyzer, Shower head chamber equilibrator for autonomous carbon dioxide (CO2) measurement, not applicable and thermosalinographs.
These data were collected by Shu Saito and Akira Nakadate of Japan Meteorological Agency; Pollutants Chemical Analysis Center; Marine Division; Global Environment and Marine Department as part of the VOS_Ryofu_Maru_1989_1995 data set. CDIAC associated the following cruise ID(s) with this data set: 49RY19891117
