Discrete surface measurements of partial pressure of CO2, dissolved inorganic carbon, nutrients, sea surface temperature and sea surface salinity during the R/V Laurence M. Gould LDEO Drake Passage Surface Water CO2 Time Series Program from 2002-03-08 to 2017-10-24 (NCEI Accession 0171470)

PACKAGE DESCRIPTION: This dataset includes surface discrete data collected during the R/V Laurence M. Gould LDEO Drake Passage Surface Water CO2 Time Series Program from 2002-03-08 to 2017-10-24. These data include barometric pressure, partial pressure CO2, dissolved inorganic carbon, nutrients, sea surface salinity and sea surface temperature. These data were collected by Taro Takahashi, Stewart Sutherland, John G. Goddard and Timothy Newberger of Columbia University, Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory. This program began in 2002 and consists primarily of 15 stations sampled approximately six times per year across the Drake Passage. Several research groups have participated in this program sampling and measurements of salinity, temperature, XBT profiling, carbonate chemistry, C-14, and nutrients.
