This dataset includes discrete, profile measurements of Dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total alkalinity, stable oxygen isotope (O-18), temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, associated CTD data (from the CTD/Rosette system) and other parameters, measured during the Canadian Coast Guard Ship Amundsen ArcticNet cruise (EXPOCODE 18DL20160603, Leg 1 and Leg 2) in the Eastern Canadian Arctic, Baffin Bay, Nares Strait, Lancaster Sound, Barrow Strait and Coronation Gulf from 2016-06-03 to 2016-08-23. Station names beginning with "Z" are locations sampled by zodiac (small-ship) away from the larger research vessel, using a single niskin bottle to directly sample surface waters.
