Partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide, salinity and other variables collected from Surface underway observations using Carbon dioxide (CO2) gas analyzer and other instruments from BARCELONA EXPRESS in the Alboran Sea, Balearic Sea and others from 2012-04-18 to 2013-02-06 (NCEI Accession 0157393)
PACKAGE DESCRIPTION: This dataset includes Surface underway, chemical, meteorological and physical data collected from BARCELONA EXPRESS in the Alboran Sea, Balearic (or Iberian) Sea, Coastal Waters of Florida, Gulf of Mexico, Ligurian Sea, Mediterranean Sea, Mediterranean Sea - Western Basin, North Atlantic Ocean, Strait of Gibraltar and Tyrrhenian Sea from 2012-04-18 to 2013-02-06. These data include AIR-SEA DIFFERENCE - PARTIAL PRESSURE (OR FUGACITY) OF CARBON DIOXIDE, 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. These data were collected by Rik Wanninkhof, Denis Pierrot and Kevin Sullivan of NOAA Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory as part of the VOS_Barcelona_Express_BMBE20120418, VOS_Barcelona_Express_BMBE20120703, VOS_Barcelona_Express_BMBE20120913 and VOS_Barcelona_Express_BMBE20121220 data set. CDIAC associated the following cruise ID(s) with this data set: BMBE20120418, BMBE20120703, BMBE20120913 and BMBE20121220
