Partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide, temperature, salinity and other variables collected from surface underway observations using carbon dioxide gas analyzer, shower head equilibrator and other instruments from NOAA Ship Ronald H. Brown cruise RB1205 in North Atlantic Ocean from 2012-09-02 to 2012-09-05 (NCEI Accession 0162170)

Metadata Updated: January 1, 2026

This dataset includes Surface underway, chemical, meteorological and physical data collected from NOAA Ship Ronald H. Brown Cruise RB1205 in the North Atlantic Ocean from 2012-09-02 to 2012-09-05. These data include measurements of mole fraction of CO2 in the equilibrator headspace (dry) at equilibrator temperature, mole fraction of CO2 measured in dry outside air, barometric pressure in the equilibrator headspace, barometric pressure, corrected to sea level, water temperature in equilibrator, sea surface temperature, sea surface salinity, fugacity of CO2 in sea water at SST and 100% humidity, and difference between sea water fCO2 and interpolated air fCO2. The instruments used to collect these data include carbon dioxide (CO2) gas analyzer and shower head chamber equilibrator for autonomous carbon dioxide (CO2) measurement.

These data were collected by Rik Wanninkhof and Denis Pierrot of NOAA Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory as part of NOAA Ship Ronald H. Brown research cruise RB1205 data set. The cruise Expedition code (EXPOCODE) is 33RO20120902.
