Dataset Overview | National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI)

Surface underway measurements of partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2) in water and atmosphere, sea surface temperature, sea surface salinity and barometric pressure obtained during R/V Celtic Explorer research cruises in the North Atlantic Ocean, English Channel, Irish Sea, North Sea and Norwegian Sea in 2019 (NCEI Accession 0224753)

Preview graphic

This dataset includes surface underway, chemical, meteorological and physical data collected during R/V Celtic Explorer research cruises in the North Atlantic Ocean, English Channel, Irish Sea, North Sea and Norwegian Sea from 2019-03-26 to 2019-12-12. The measurements are done with a pCO2 instrument from General Oceanics (Miami/USA) and is described in detail in Pierrot et al. (2009).
