    • Partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide, temperature, salinity and other variables collected from the coastal surface underway observations using carbon dioxide gas analyzer, shower head equilibrator and other instruments from NOAA Ship Henry B. Bigelow in the North Atlantic Ocean, US North-East coast in 2017 (NCEI Accession 0162290)

    Metadata Updated: December 1, 2023

    In February 2011, the Ocean Carbon Group at NOAA's Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory (AOML) installed an instrument to measure CO2 levels in surface water and air on NOAA Ship Henry B. Bigelow. The Bigelow primarily operates in the North Atlantic Ocean between North Carolina and Maine. This dataset includes Surface underway, chemical, meteorological and physical data collected from NOAA Ship Henry B. Bigelow in the North Atlantic Ocean, US North East coast in 2017. 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 Henry B. Bigelow research coastal cruises HB1701, HB1702-Leg1, HB1702-Leg2, HB1702-Leg3, HB1702-Leg4, HB1703, HB1704 data set. The cruise Expedition codes (EXPOCODEs) are 33HH20170211, 33HH20170306, 33HH20170328, 33HH20170412, 33HH20170502, 33HH20170609, 33HH20170706.
