Long-term (1977}1997) measurements of carbon dioxide in the Eastern North Atlantic: evaluation of anthropogenic input
parameters were measured in the Eastern North Atlantic Ocean. A data set of 12 cruises carried out between 373N and 473N, 203W and the Iberian Peninsula coast, were used to estimate the anthropogenic carbon (C) based on a back-calculation technique, with the aim of evaluating its temporal evolution...
