These data include dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total alkalinity (TA), pH on total scale, water temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen concentration, nitrate, nitrite, phosphate, silicate, chlorofluorocarbon 12 (CFC-12), barium, delta carbon-13, sulfur hexafluoride (SF6), delta carbon-14, delta helium-3, helium, neon, tritium and potential temperature (theta). The instruments used to collect these data include alkalinity titrator, CTD, Niskin bottles, coulometer for DIC measurement and spectrophotometer. The International CLIVAR Global Ocean Carbon and Repeat Hydrography Program carries out a systematic and global re-occupation of select WOCE/JGOFS hydrographic sections to quantify changes in storage and transport of heat, fresh water, carbon dioxide (CO2), and related parameters.

Samples were thermostated at 20 (+/- 0.2) degC. A calibrated thermostated pipette (volume approx. 26 ml) was filled with the sample by gas pressure (nitrogen), the sample was transferred to the stripper, acidified with phosphoric acid (approx. 10% solution) and extracted with nitrogen as carrier gas. Liberated CO2 was measured with an UIC COULOMETER type 5012.; Standardization description: The precision was controlled by titration of several bottles filled from the same Niskin bottles at two different locations. From these results, it can be concluded that precision is ±0.6 μmol kg−1 or better. The accuracy was checked by running a total of 42 bottles of certified reference material (CRM, batch 108). Standards were run occasionally (18 times) in duplicate from the same bottle (if the first value differed by more than 1 μmol kg−1 from the certified value). However, only the first result was taken, since it cannot be excluded, that the bottle was affected by contact with lab air between first and second measurement. The second only had the purpose to flag the bottle questionable, should the second measurement deviate by more than 1 μmol kg−1 from the first measurement (this was not the case).The certified value is given with a standard deviation of ± 0.7 μmol kg−1. The precision of the analysis was ± 0.6 μmol kg−1 and the accuracy was determined to be ±2.5 μmol kg−1.; CRM batch number: 108; Researcher name: L. Mintrop (MARIANDA), M. Álvarez (IEO) Parameter or Variable: Total alkalinity; Abbreviation: ALKALI; Observation type: discrete; In-situ / Manipulation / Response variable: in-situ observation; Measured or calculated: Measured; Sampling instrument: Niskin Bottles; Type of titration: Gran; Curve fitting method: Total Alkalinity (TA) along the METEOR 84/3 cruise was analyzed following a double end point potentiometric technique by Pérez and Fraga (1987) further improved in Pérez et al. (2002); Detailed sampling and analyzing information: Samples for alkalinity determination were collected in 600mL borosilicate bottles and were analysed within one day after sampling. Samples were analysed following the double end point potentiometric technique by Pérez and Fraga (Mar. Chem., 1987) and Pérez et al. (CC.MM., 2000). Measurements of CRM were performed in order to control the accuracy of the alkalinity measurements; the pH as measured by the electrode was corrected to obtain the closest mean alkalinity to the CRM; the pH correction was never larger than 0.05. The precision of the alkalinity measurements was better than ±0.6 μmol kg−1 determined from duplicate Niskin bottles, and the accuracy of the alkalinity measurements (i.e. including sampling errors) is determined to be 1 μmol kg−1 . Additionally, the daily drift of the system was determined by regular measurements of a substandard (surface seawater); this drift was always very low. The precision of the analysis was ± 0.6 µmol/kg and the accuracy was determined to be 1 µmol/kg.; Method reference: Pérez and Fraga (1987); Researcher name: M. Álvarez (IEO) Parameter or Variable: pH; Abbreviation: PH_TOT; pH scale: Total; Observation type: discrete; In-situ / Manipulation / Response variable: in-situ observation; Measured or calculated: Measured; Sampling instrument: Niskin bottles; Temperature of pH measurement: 25C; Detailed sampling and analyzing information: pH was measured in cylindrical optical glass 10-cm pathlength cells with a spectrophotometric procedure (Clayton and Byrne, DSR I, 1993). pH is reported in the total scale at 25 ˚C (pHST25). The precision was estimated to ±0.0012 by measuring replicates from the same Niskin bottle. Regarding the accuracy, the theoretical pH25T value for the 108 CRM batch using the dissociation constants from Mehrbach et al. (LO, 1973) refitted by Dickson and Millero (DSR, 1987) is 7.8782. Replicate pH measurements along the cruise on CRMs are lower than the theoretical value by 0.0962±0.0012 pH units. An internal consistency analysis showed that this correction should not be applied.; Uncertainty: The mean of the STD is ±0.0012 which could be considered as the reproducibility of pH measurements during the cruise.; Researcher name: M.
