Partial pressure of carbon dioxide, water temperature, salinity and other variables collected from surface underway observations from R/V F.G. Walton Smith coastal cruises in the Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico in 2005 (NCEI Accession 0241959)

Metadata Updated: February 1, 2026

This dataset includes surface underway, chemical, meteorological and physical data collected from R/V F.G. Walton Smith in the Gulf of Mexico and North Atlantic Ocean in 2005. These data include air-sea difference of partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2), pCO2 in atmosphere, pCO2 in water, barometric pressure, sea surface salinity and water temperature. The instruments used to collect these data include barometric pressure sensor, CCN-Gen2 system, LI-COR for autonomous carbon dioxide measurement and thermosalinographs. The Global Coastal Carbon Data Project data includes the bottle (discrete) and surface (underway) carbon-related measurements from coastal research cruises, the data from time series cruises and coastal moorings. The coastal regions data are very important for the understanding of carbon cycle on the continental margins.
