High-resolution ocean and atmosphere pCO2 time-series measurements from mooring MOSEAN_158W_23N (NCEI Accession 0100073)

browse graphicPreview graphic
This dataset includes chemical, meteorological, physical and time series data collected from MOORING MOSEAN_158W_23N in the North Pacific Ocean from 2004-12-19 to 2007-07-30. These data include AIR-SEA DIFFERENCE - PARTIAL PRESSURE (OR FUGACITY) OF CARBON DIOXIDE, BAROMETRIC PRESSURE, OXYGEN - PERCENT SATURATION, 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 Bubble type equilibrator for autonomous carbon dioxide (CO2) measurement and Carbon dioxide (CO2) gas analyzer. These data were collected by Adrienne Sutton, Christopher Sabine and Stacy Maenner of US DOC; NOAA; OAR; Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory as part of the Mooring MOSEAN_158W_23N data set. The Global CO2 Time-series and Moorings Project involves international groups from 18 countries who have mounted sensors on moored buoys to provide high resolution time-series measurements of atmospheric boundary layer and surface ocean CO2 partial pressure (pCO2). The CO2 Time-series and Moorings Project is coordinated by UNESCO International Ocean Carbon Coordination Project (IOCCP).
