We transferred seawater from each Niskin bottle into a single 500 mL borosilicate glass bottle. 2 mL of seawater was removed from each sample bottle to allow for thermal expansion, and then 100 uL of saturated mercuric chloride solution was added to halt biological activity. The bottles were then sealed using greased ground-glass stoppers. Samples were stored at 4 °C in the dark until they were analyzed after the cruise. Briefly, DIC was analyzed using an automated analyzer (VINDTA 3C, Marianda) at 25 degrees Celcius with a precision of ± 1 μmol/kg. The seawater sample was acidified using phosphoric acid, and the evolved CO2 gas was extracted and carried by ultra-high purity N2 gas to a coulometer for quantification. The accuracies of the DIC measurements were determined by routine analysis of certified reference material (CRM) provided by A. G. Dickson, Scripps Institution of Oceanography.

The bottles were then sealed using greased ground-glass stoppers. Samples were stored at 4 °C in the dark until they were analyzed after the cruise. Briefly, pH was analyzed spectrophotometrically using purified meta-Cresol purple dye. pH accuracy is guaranteed by purified meta-Cresol Purple obtained from Bob Byrne at University of South Florida and calibrated against Tris buffer obtained from A. G. Dickson, Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The precision of pH analysis is ±0.0005 pH units. At present, the likely bias of accuracy for pH is estimated to be less than 0.005 pH units.

NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information custodian carbon dioxide (CO2) gas analyzer carbon dioxide (CO2) gas analyzer measures gaseous carbon dioxide Carbon dioxide gas analyzer has often been referred to as LI-COR, because a lot of researchers choose to use products manufactured by LI-COR incorporation for their carbon dioxide measurement. The main component of a carbon dioxide analyzer is a nondispersive infrared (NDIR) spectroscopic sensors to detect CO2 in a gaseous environment by its characteristic absorption. Carbon dioxide (CO2) gas analyzer works together with carbon dioxide (CO2) equilibrator (insttypes_id 184) to measure carbon dioxide in the water. To measure water carbon dioxide, water needs to be continuously supplied to a showerhead inside an equilibrator. As the water flows through the equilibrator chamber, dissolved carbon dioxide exchanges quickly with air in the headspace. This air is then sampled by the carbon dioxide analyzer to determine the mole fraction of CO2 in water.
