Summary: | NCEI Accession 0157461 includes Surface underway, chemical, discrete sample, meteorological, physical and profile data collected from PELICAN in the Coastal Waters of Louisiana, Coastal Waters of Texas and Gulf of Mexico from 2013-09-09 to 2013-09-22. These data include BAROMETRIC PRESSURE, CONDUCTIVITY, DISSOLVED INORGANIC CARBON (DIC), Partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide - atmosphere, Partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide - water, SALINITY, TOTAL ALKALINITY (TA), WATER TEMPERATURE and pH. The instruments used to collect these data include Alkalinity titrator, CTD, Carbon dioxide (CO2) gas analyzer, Non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) analyzer, Shower head chamber equilibrator for autonomous carbon dioxide (CO2) measurement, bottle and pH sensors. These data were collected by Antonio Mannino of US NASA; Goddard Space Flight Center and Dr. Joseph Salisbury and Christopher Hunt of University of New Hampshire as part of the Coastal_GOMEX2013_BOT and Coastal_GOMEX2013_UW data set. CDIAC associated the following cruise ID(s) with this data set: 32PE20130909 and GOMEX2013 The Global Coastal Carbon Data Project data includes the bottle (discrete) and surface (underway) carbon-related measurements from coastal research cruises, the data from time series cruises and coastal moorings. The coastal regions data are very important for the understanding of carbon cycle on the continental margins.
