PACKAGE DESCRIPTION: This dataset includes Surface underway, chemical, meteorological and physical data collected from WECOMA in the U.S. West Coast California Current System from 2011-08-12 to 2011-08-30. 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 Lauren W. Juranek of Oregon State University; College of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences and Simone R. Alin, Richard A. Feely and Catherine E. Cosca of US DOC; NOAA; OAR; Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory as part of the WCOA2011_UW data set.
