        abstract:  This dataset contains time series profile (discrete bottle) data that were collected at the Central Gulf of Mexico Ocean Observing System (CenGOOS) buoy off the coast of Mississippi. The CenGOOS 3-m discus buoy serves as a platform for a NOAA/PMEL MAPCO2 system. Cruises are conducted on an approximately quarterly basis to take water samples for analyses to validate the MAPCO2 measurements. Water samples for DIC and Total Alkalinity and pH are sent to Wei-Jun Cai's lab at the University of Delaware for analyses.
        purpose:  Collect profile data and water samples to verify the MAPCO2 data and maintenance and repair for MAPCO2 system.

                description:  Parameter or Variable: Concentration of Chlorophyll a; Abbreviation: CHLORA; Unit: micro g/L; Observation type: Profile, continuous; In-situ / Manipulation / Response variable: in-situ; Measured or calculated: Measured; Sampling instrument: Niskin bottle; Detailed sampling and analyzing information: Samples for the photosynthetic pigment Chl-a are collected in-situ and transported back to the lab at ambient temperature. In the lab, samples for Chl-a are immediately collected on Whatman GFFfilters and flash-frozen. Prior to analysis, all Chl-a samples are extracted in methanol and pigment fluorescence is measured according to Welshmeyer (1994).; Method reference: N. A. Welschmeyer, Fluorometric analysis of chlorophyll a in the presence of chlorophyll b and pheopigments. Limnol. Oceanogr. 39, 1985-1992 (1994).; Researcher institution: The University of Southern Mississippi.

            type:  spectrophotometer
            description:  spectrophotometer, optical spectrometer, spectrograph or spectroscope An optical spectrometer (spectrophotometer, spectrograph or spectroscope) is an instrument used to measure properties of light over a specific portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, typically used in spectroscopic analysis to identify materials. Butler, L. R. P.; Laqua, K. (1995). "Nomenclature, symbols, units and their usage in spectrochemical analysis-IX. Instrumentation for the spectral dispersion and isolation of optical radiation (IUPAC Recommendations 1995)". Pure Appl. Chem. IUPAC. 67 (10): 1725–1744. doi:10.1351/pac199567101725. A spectrometer is the general term for describing a combination of spectral apparatus with one or more detectors to measure the intensity of one or more spectral bands."
