    • Dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total alkalinity (TA), partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2) and other hydrographic biogeochemical measurements collected from discrete samples and profiling sensors during the Atlantic Zone Monitoring Program cruises in the Scotian Shelf, North Atlantic Ocean from 2014-09-19 to 2021-10-03 (NCEI Accession 0228686)

    Metadata Updated: December 1, 2023

    This dataset includes dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total alkalinity and partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2), nutrients, dissolved oxygen, particulate organic carbon and nitrogen (POC and PON), pigment concentrations from discrete water samples and colored dissolved organic matter (CDOM) from the profiling sensor. Data were collected during the Atlantic Zone Monitoring Program (AZMP). The AZMP was implemented in 1998 with the aim of increasing Fisheries and Oceans Canada's (DFO) capacity to understand and forecast the state of the marine ecosystem and to quantify the changes in the ocean physical, chemical and biological properties. Ocean acidification program was implemented across the AZMP in 2014 funded by the Aquatic Climate Change Adaption Services Program (ACCASP). This submission covers measurements conducted by BIO (the Maritime region, DFO) in the Scotian Shelf, encompassing from the Cabot Strait to the Gulf of Maine, during the period from 2014-09-19 to 2021-10-03.
