Nitrous Oxide (N2O) concentration data from CTD casts and Bioassay experiments during cruises JR271 (North Sea to Arctic Ocean) in June 2012 and JR274 (Scotia Sea, Southern Ocean) in January-February 2013.
The effects of ocean acidification (OA) on nitrous oxide (N2O) production was examined in the northern and southern sub-polar and polar Atlantic Ocean. Two research cruises were performed during June 2012 between the North Sea and Arctic Greenland and Barent Seas (JR271), and in January-February 201...

| Summary: | The effects of ocean acidification (OA) on nitrous oxide (N2O) production was examined in the northern and southern sub-polar and polar Atlantic Ocean. Two research cruises were performed during June 2012 between the North Sea and Arctic Greenland and Barent Seas (JR271), and in January-February 2013 to the Antarctic Scotia Sea (JR274). Seven stations were occupied in all during which shipboard experimental manipulations of the carbonate chemistry were performed through additions of NaHCO3- + HCl in order to examine the impact of short- term exposure to control and elevated conditions of OA. During each experiment, triplicate incubations were performed at ambient conditions and at 3 lowered levels of pH which varied between 0.06 and 0.4 units according to the total scale and which were targeted at CO2 partial pressures of ~500, 750 and 1000 �atm. |
