Partial pressure of carbon dioxide, temperature, salinity and other variables collected from surface underway coastal observations from the ship of opportunity (SOOP) Offshore Supply Ship Atlantic Condor in the North Atlantic Ocean, from 2018-02-02 to 2018-11-26 (NCEI Accession 0184868)
PACKAGE DESCRIPTION: This dataset includes surface underway, chemical, physical, coastal data collected from the Offshore Supply Ship Atlantic Condor in the North Atlantic Ocean, from 2018-02-02 to 2018-11-26. These data include sea surface temperature, sea surface salinity, equilibrator temperature, equilibrator pressure, mole fraction of carbon dioxide (xCO2), partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide (pCO2) in water, conductivity and oxygen. The instruments used to collect these data include flat membrane equilibrator, conductivity sensor and oxygen optode.
