Dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total alkalinity (TA), partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2) and other hydrographic biogeochemical measurements collected from discrete samples and profiling sensors during the Atlantic Zone Monitoring Program cruises in the Scotian Shelf, North Atlantic Ocean from 2014-09-19 to 2022-10-17 (NCEI Accession 0228686)

This dataset includes dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total alkalinity and partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2), nutrients, dissolved oxygen, particulate organic carbon and nitrogen (POC and PON), pigment concentrations from discrete water samples and colored dissolved organic matter (CDOM) from the profiling sensor. Data were collected during the Atlantic Zone Monitoring Program (AZMP). The AZMP was implemented in 1998 with the aim of increasing Fisheries and Oceans Canada's (DFO) capacity to understand and forecast the state of the marine ecosystem and to quantify the changes in the ocean physical, chemical and biological properties. Ocean acidification program was implemented across the AZMP in 2014 funded by the Aquatic Climate Change Adaption Services Program (ACCASP). This submission covers measurements conducted by BIO (the Maritime region, DFO) in the Scotian Shelf, encompassing from the Cabot Strait to the Gulf of Maine, during the period from 2014-09-19 to 2022-10-17.

Supplemental Information
In this accession, NCEI has archived multiple versions of these data. The latest (and best) version of these data has the largest version number.
Purpose To Increase Fisheries and Oceans Canada's (DFO) capacity to understand; describe; and forecast the state of the marine ecosystem and to quantify the changes in the ocean physical; chemical and biological properties(i). A critical element of the AZMP involves an observation program aimed at assessing the variability in nutrients; phytoplankton and zooplankton. The overall aim is to identify fundamental relationships among elements of the planktonic ecosystem and establish how they respond to changes in environmental drivers(i). The AZMP derives its information on the state of the marine ecosystem from data collected at a network of sampling locations (high frequency sampling stations; cross-shelf sections; and groundfish surveys) in each region (Quebec; Gulf; Maritimes; NL) sampled at a frequency of biweekly to once annually.

Five mL of water was removed to allow room for thermal expansion and the sample was preserved within 30 minutes of collection with 0.1 mL of a mercuric chloride saturated solution; then sealed with Apiezon M grease and the ground glass stoppers secured in place with rubber bands.

The sample was immediately stabilised by the addition of 50 mL of saturated mercuric chloride solution; crimp sealed with a butyl rubber septum then stored in a refrigerator. Before analysis; a 11 mL headspace of 400 ppm CO2 in zero air was introduced into the bottle which was then thermally equilibrated at 22 ¬∞C for one hour. The bottle was then shaken vigorously for 8 minutes and the headspace displaced by a brine solution; flushing the sample loop of an SRI gas chromatograph equipped with a methaniser and flame ionisation detector. CO2 peaks were calibrated by injections of primary standard gas mixtures (Air Liquide) having CO2 mixing ratios of 397.3; 797.2; 1201 and 2017 ppm.; Uncertainty: 1 uatm; Quality flag convention: 1 = Sample drawn from bottle but analysis not recieved; 2 = QC Performed: Acceptable Measurement; 3 = QC Performed: Questionable Measurement; 4 = QC Performed: Bad Measurement; 5 = QC Performed: Not Reported; 6 = Mean of replicate measurements; 7 = Manual chromatographic peak measurement; 8 = Irregular digital chromatographic peak integration; 9 = Not sampled; Method reference: Dickson; A.G.; Sabine; C.L. and Christian; J.R.
