Seawater samples were collected in Chesapeake Bay for dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and total alkalinity (TA) from June 2016 to July 2018. They were collected in the lower half of the Bay aboard the R/V Fay Slover in collaboration with Old Dominion University's Chesapeake Bay Program Water Quality Laboratory and the VA Dept. of Environmental Quality. In the upper half of the Bay, samples were collected aboard the R/V Kerhin in collaboration with the Maryland Department of Natural Resources' Chesapeake Bay Water Quality Monitoring Program. Additional water quality parameters from the cruises were downloaded from the Chesapeake Bay program website. Additional carbonate system parameters were then computed from DIC and TA
