PACKAGE DESCRIPTION: This dataset includes surface underway, chemical, meteorological and physical data collected during R/V Tangaroa cruises in the South Pacific Ocean and Tasman Sea from 2016-01-02 to 2016-12-20. These data include fugacity of carbon dioxide (fCO2), sea surface temperature, sea surface salinity and barometric pressure. The instruments used to collect these data include carbon dioxide gas analyzer and shower head chamber equilibrator for autonomous carbon dioxide measurements.
