An operational monitoring system to provide indicators of CO2-related variables in the ocean
Demand by governments and scientists is increasing for indicators of CO2-related variables for the ocean. We describe a recent project, CARBON-OPS, during which a "supply chain" was developed for automated measurement of pCO(2) in the surface of the ocean, data processing, and its use in p...

Demand by governments and scientists is increasing for indicators of CO2-related variables for the ocean.

Data are gathered by new pCO(2) measurement systems on five UK research ships in the Southern Ocean, Atlantic Ocean, and northwestern European shelf seas.

The data are then delivered to the UK Met Office and others for use in testing predictions from operational ocean models.
