Summary: | NCEI Accession 0157298 includes Surface underway, chemical, meteorological and physical data collected from BARCELONA EXPRESS in the Alboran Sea, Balearic (or Iberian) Sea, Coastal Waters of Florida, Coastal Waters of Louisiana, Coastal Waters of Texas, English Channel, Gulf of Mexico, Ligurian Sea, Mediterranean Sea, Mediterranean Sea - Western Basin, North Atlantic Ocean, North Sea, Strait of Gibraltar and Tyrrhenian Sea from 2010-03-02 to 2011-01-05. These data include AIR-SEA DIFFERENCE - PARTIAL PRESSURE (OR FUGACITY) OF CARBON DIOXIDE, 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 Rik Wanninkhof, Denis Pierrot and Kevin Sullivan of US DOC; NOAA; OAR; Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory as part of the VOS_Barcelona_Express_BMBE20100302, VOS_Barcelona_Express_BMBE20100326, VOS_Barcelona_Express_BMBE20101014 and VOS_Barcelona_Express_BMBE20101202 data set. CDIAC associated the following cruise ID(s) with this data set: BMBE20100302, BMBE20100326, BMBE20101014 and BMBE20101202 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.
