The data includes carbonate system variables (pH, total dissolved inorganic carbon, total alkalinity and pCO2) measured in the water column of the European Station for time series in the Ocean, ESTOC, located at 29º10'N and 15º30'W in the northeast Atlantic Ocean, together with temperature and salinity. The period of ESTOC data started in February 1994 but the carbonate variables started on October 1995. Data for ESTOC until year 2010 were already included in PANGAEA (see related datasets).This new dataset includes all available water column measured carbonate variables from 2011 to April 2023 and new data for two visits before 2010, one in October 2007 and March 2008. A total of 626, 392 and 626 new samples are included, respectively, for total alkalinity (AT), pH in total scale (pHT) and total dissolved inorganic carbon (CT). Until 2011, sampling was done every two months. During 2012 and 2013, ship operations were stopped and re-started on February 2014, keeping since, seasonal visits to ESTOC. In 2016, a ...
