The sea surface fugacity of CO2 (fCO2) was measured continuously onboard the R.V.S. Marion-Dufresne (IPEV/TAAF) during the cruise OISO-5 in July-August 2000. The fCO2 measurements technique has been described previously in details for other cruises conducted during years 1990-1995 in the Indian and Southern Ocean (Poisson et al.,1993; Metzl et al. 1995, 1999). This instrumentation was also used by our group during the international at-sea intercomparison of fCO2 systems conducted in 1996 in the North-Atlantic (Kortzinger et al., 2000;
