Summary: | NCEI Accession 0157242 includes Surface underway, chemical, meteorological and physical data collected from POLARSTERN in the Arctic Ocean, Barents Sea, Kara Sea, Laptev (or Nordenskjold) Sea, North Greenland Sea, North Sea, Norwegian Sea, South Atlantic Ocean and Southern Oceans (> 60 degrees South) from 2011-06-17 to 2012-01-04. These data include BAROMETRIC PRESSURE, Partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide - atmosphere, Partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide - water, SALINITY, SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURE, WIND DIRECTION and WIND SPEED. The instruments used to collect these data include Carbon dioxide (CO2) gas analyzer. These data were collected by Mario Hoppema of Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research, Steven van Heuven of Groningen University and Elizabeth Jones of Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea Research as part of the VOS_Polarstern_2011 data set. CDIAC associated the following cruise ID(s) with this data set: 06AQ20110617 The Global Volunteer Observing Ship (VOS) Program is coordinated by the UNESCO International Ocean Carbon Coordination Project (IOCCP). International groups from 14 countries have been outfitting research ships and commercial vessels with automated CO2 sampling equipment to analyze the carbon exchange between the ocean and atmosphere.
