    • 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)

    Metadata Updated: July 1, 2025

    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.
