Description
Summary:LI-COR (LI 850) sensor data obtained by the "Antarctic Modeling Observation System" (ATMOS) project. These data were collected in the southern summer of 2021/2022 during the 40th Brazilian Antarctic Operation (OPERANTAR XL) and were used to calculate the partial pressure of seawater CO2 (pCO2sea) The LI-850 carbon dioxide analyzer was installed in the laboratory aft of H41 together with a balancer to measure the CO2 concentration of the water. The collection system occurs as follows: the ship's saltwater piping system collects seawater, when this water enters the balancer it generates turbulence. The turbulence generated causes the CO2 present in the water to come into balance with the air. The air that comes out of the balancer is pumped into the LI-850, by its internal pump, and thus, the equipment measures the concentration of CO2 present in the water. To ensure that the air inside the balancer is actually balanced with the seawater, the air leaving the LI-850 is pumped back into the balancer, closing the ...
