This dataset includes chemical, discrete sample, physical and profile data collected from MARION DUFRESNE in the South Atlantic Ocean from 2008-02-07 to 2008-03-24 and retrieved during cruise BONUS GoodHope 2008 and leg 1; MD166. These data include ALKALINITY, AMMONIUM, CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-11 (CFC-11), CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-113 (CFC-113), CHLOROFLUOROCARBON-12 (CFC-12), Carbon tetrachloride (CCL4), DISSOLVED INORGANIC CARBON, DISSOLVED OXYGEN, HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, NITRATE, PHOSPHATE, Potential temperature (theta), SALINITY, SILICATE, WATER TEMPERATURE and pH. The instruments used to collect these data include Alkalinity titrator, CTD, Coulometer for DIC measurement, Spectrophotometer for pH measurement and bottle. These data were collected by Mario Hoppema of Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research, Melchor Gonzalez-Davila of Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Sabrina Speich of University of Bretagne Occidental; Lop - Brest and Bruno Delille of University of Liege as part of the CLIVAR_A12_35MF20080207 data set.

The International CLIVAR Global Ocean Carbon and Repeat Hydrography Program carries out a systematic and global re-occupation of select WOCE/JGOFS hydrographic sections to quantify changes in storage and transport of heat, fresh water, carbon dioxide (CO2), and related parameters.

  • Parameter or Variable: Dissolved Inorganic Carbon; Abbreviation: DIC; Observation type: discrete; In-situ / Manipulation / Response variable: In-situ observation; Measured or calculated: Calculated; Detailed sampling and analyzing information: A VINDTA 3C system [Mintrop et al., 2000] (www.MARIANDA.com), with coulometer determination was used for the titration of the total dissolved inorganic carbon after phosphoric acid addition. The titration of CRMs (#85) was used to test the performance of the equipment after the preparation of each titration cell. Over 30 bottles were analysed on board with a system precision of ± 1.5 μmol kg-1..
  • Parameter or Variable: Total alkalinity; Abbreviation: TA; Observation type: discrete; In-situ / Manipulation / Response variable: In-situ observation; Measured or calculated: Measured; Type of titration: potentiometric titration; Curve fitting method: Samples for AT were potentiometrically titrated with standardized 0.25 M HCl (0.45M in NaCl) to the carbonic acid end point using a systems described in detail by Mintrop et al. [2000]. The titration of certify reference Material for Oceanic CO2, CRMs (#85) was used to test the performance of the titration system given values that were within ± 1.0 μmol kg-1 of the certified value.; Uncertainty: Each CRM sample was also analysed for total alkalinity determination, and the corresponding chart sheet is presented in Figure 42. The agreement between on board experimental data (NAT = 2293.7 ± 1.0) and certify value (NAT = 2293.7 ± 0.8) indicates accurate HCl concentration and pipette volume for the titration system..
