This dataset contains chemical and physical data collected from 2014-06-04 to 2015-02-23. These data include dissolved inorganic Carbon, pCO2, pH, salinity calculated from CTD primary sensors, total alkalinity, and water temperature. The instruments used to collect these data include Automatic titrator, Multi Parameter Portable Meter, and Spectrophotometer. These data were collected by Dr Janet E Kubler and Dr Steve Dudgeon of California State University Northridge as part of the "Ocean Acidification: Scope for Resilience to Ocean Acidification in Macroalgae (Seaweed OA Resilience)" project and "Science, Engineering and Education for Sustainability NSF-Wide Investment (SEES): Ocean Acidification (formerly CRI-OA) (SEES-OA)" program. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2019-06-03.

Carbonate chemistry over a time-course in pH drift

Dataset Description:
This dataset includes measurements of pH drift of seawater samples taken over 30-hour time periods in the presence or absence of Plocamium cartilagineum , with two carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, and with three pCO2 levels. Carbonate chemistry is reported at six time intervals.

Supplemental Information
Acquisition Description:
Plocamium cartilagineum was collected from Catalina Island in June - Nov. 2014 and Jan. 2015.

Seawater samples were collected over a 30-hour time course of pH drift experiments with Plocamium cartilagineum to test mechanism of carbon acquisition by alga and the effect on carbonate chemistry parameters reported in these datasets. Samples were collected at 0, 2, 6, 20, 24 and 30 hours and parameters of carbonate chemistry were measured (DIC,CO2, HCO3,CO3-described below). pH drift assay experiments consisted of 2 independent variables; inhibitor treatment and algal presence, with 3 and 2 levels, respectively for each independent variable (see parameters section). Two replicate water samples were collected from each of 9 experimental culture pots of algae grown for 3 weeks at different combinations of pCO2 and temperature during each of 7 experimental trials.

Carbonate chemistry parameters were measured by sampling pH and total alkalinity (TA) of water samples. pH was determined using the m-cresol indicator dye method in a spectrophotometer (Dickson et al. 2007). TA samples were analyzed by potentiometric titration coupled to a pH electrode calibrated using certified reference material (CRM) from the Dickson laboratory at Scripps Oceanographic Institute and the pH electrode calibrated using TRIS buffer (Dickson et al. 2007). TA and carbonate parameters were calculated from potentiometric titration data and spectrophotometric pH data.

Note: Trial 1 was a pilot test of culture system and methodological procedures so was not used for data collection in the testing of hypotheses.

See Supplemental Files for a table of culture conditions for each of the 8 trials (pdf).
Purpose This dataset is available to the public for a wide variety of uses including scientific research and analysis.
