Dataset Overview | National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI)

Dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total alkalinity and other hydrographic and chemical data collected from discrete samples and profile observations during the CCGS Louis S. St-Laurent IOS Cruise 2015-06 (EXPOCODE 18SN20150920) in the Arctic Ocean from 2015-09-20 to 2015-10-16 (NCEI Accession 0191303)

This dataset includes discrete profile measurements of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total alkalinity, temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, nutrients and oxygen isotope ratio during the CCGS Louis S. St-Laurent IOS Cruise 2015-06 (EXPOCODE 18SN20150920) in the Arctic Ocean from 2015-09-20 to 2015-10-16. The Joint Ocean Ice Study (JOIS) in 2015 is an important contribution from Fisheries and Oceans Canada to international Arctic climate research programs. It is a collaboration between Fisheries and Oceans Canada researchers with colleagues in the USA from Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI). The scientists from WHOI lead the Beaufort Gyre Exploration Project (BGEP) which maintains the Beaufort Gyre Observing System (BGOS) as part of the Arctic Observing Network (AON).
