This dataset includes Surface underway, chemical, meteorological and physical data collected from Atlantic Cartier in the Inner Sea - West Coast Scotland, Irish Sea and St. George's Channel and North Atlantic Ocean from 2015-09-12 to 2015-12-22. These data include BAROMETRIC PRESSURE, 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 Carbon dioxide (CO2) gas analyzer.

These data were collected by Douglas Wallace of Dalhousie University; Institute of Oceanography, Tobias Steinhoff and Meike Becker of GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel and Arne Körtzinger of Marine Biogeochemistry, Institute of Marine Research as part of the VOS_Atlantic_Cartier_779920150912, VOS_Atlantic_Cartier_779920151005, VOS_Atlantic_Cartier_779920151022 and VOS_Atlantic_Cartier_779920151221 data set. CDIAC associated the following cruise ID(s) with this data set: 779920150912, 779920151005, 779920151022 and 779920151221
