Southern Ocean monthly gridded pCO2 and air-sea CO2 flux product with boosted wintertime pCO2 coverage from 1993-01-01 to 2018-12-31 (NCEI Accession 0266978)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 03, 2026 at 04:13 AM | Dataset Last Updated: October 27, 2022 at 12:00 AM
This dataset contains monthly gridded pCO2 and air-sea CO2 fluxes from 1993-2018. The pCO2 data are gap-filled from the SOCAT database using the method of Landschützer (2013), but using additional winter pCO2 'pseudo observations' constructed using the method of Mackay and Watson (2021). The air-sea fluxes are constructed from the pCO2 product using a gas transfer parameterisation.
