Nitrous Oxide and Nitrate Isotope discrete, profile measurements obtained during the NOAA Ship Ronald H. Brown cruise WCOA2021 (EXPOCODE 33RO20210613) in the North Pacific Ocean, US West Coast from 2021-06-13 to 2021-07-26 (NCEI Accession 0317020)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 03, 2026 at 05:28 AM | Dataset Last Updated: July 23, 2026 at 12:00 AM
This data package contains the discrete bottle (CTD profile) data of nitrous oxide (N2O) and nitrate (NO3) isotopes from the 2021 West Coast Ocean Acidification cruise. The cruise took place June 13 - July 26, 2021 aboard the NOAA Ship Ronald H. Brown. Samples were collected from Dana Point, California to Haida Gwaii, Canada. In this dataset, 70 unique stations were analyzed for N2O and NO3 isotopes. The dataset here was designed to obtain the first region-wide observations of N2O and NO3 isotopes throughout the California Current System (CCS) to understand the source of N2O in the CCS. This effort was conducted with the support of the coastal monitoring and research objectives of the NOAA Ocean Acidification Program (OAP).
