The full set of marine carbonate parameters was collected in the surface waters of the eastern part of the Fram Strait (between 74°N - 81°N, and 0° - 20°E) and Svalbard fjords (Krossfjorden, Kongsfjorden, Isfjorden, and Horsund) during June/July 2019, 2020 and 2021. Water was collected at 2.5m depth using an underway pCO2 system installed on board the RV Oceania. The carbonate systems measurements consist of temperature, salinity, pH, pCO2, Total Alkalinity (TA), and Dissolved Inorganic Carbon (DIC); moreover, the partial pressure of Oxygen was measured (pO2). The temperature was measured at the inlet of the underway system using a SBE38, and, in the laboratories, temperature, and salinity were again measured using a SBE21 SeaCATthermoslinograph, both of them from Sea-Bird Scientific, Bellevue, Washington. Temperature and salinity data were collected every second. The water stream in the laboratory had three main outlets: the first one was connected to a bubble-type equilibrator equipped with an additional ...
