PACKAGE DESCRIPTION: This dataset includes Surface underway, chemical, meteorological and physical data collected from Skogafoss in the Labrador Sea, North Atlantic Ocean, North Greenland Sea and Norwegian Sea from 2014-03-17 to 2015-01-14. 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 Barometric pressure sensor, Carbon dioxide (CO2) gas analyzer, Shower head chamber equilibrator for autonomous carbon dioxide (CO2) measurement and thermosalinographs.
These data were collected by Rik Wanninkhof, Denis Pierrot and Kevin Sullivan of NOAA Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory as part of the VOS_Skogafoss_2_Lines_SKO20140317, VOS_Skogafoss_2_Lines_SKO20140412, VOS_Skogafoss_2_Lines_SKO20140510, VOS_Skogafoss_2_Lines_SKO20140607, VOS_Skogafoss_2_Lines_SKO20140629, VOS_Skogafoss_2_Lines_SKO20140727, VOS_Skogafoss_2_Lines_SKO20140822, VOS_Skogafoss_2_Lines_SKO20140919, VOS_Skogafoss_2_Lines_SKO20141017, VOS_Skogafoss_2_Lines_SKO20141115 and VOS_Skogafoss_2_Lines_SKO20141218 data set.
