Title: Discrete profile measurements of dissolved inorganic carbon, total alkalinity, dissolved oxygen, temperature and salinity during R/V Tioga ten cruises in Wilkinson Basin of the Gulf of Maine from 2013-05-21 to 2015-02-15 (NCEI Accession 0172591)
Abstract: This dataset consists of discrete profile measurements of DIC, total alkalinity, oxygen, temperature and salinity during R/V Tioga ten cruises in Wilkinson Basin of the Gulf of Maine from 2013-05-21 to 2015-02-15. Eleven short (1-2-day) cruises were conducted on R/V Tioga to sample water-column carbonate chemistry from May 2013 to July 2015 at a series of 6 stations in Wilkinson Basin and nearby areas. The first seven cruises (2013-2014) focused on capturing seasonal variation and occupied at least two stations (Stations 1 - 4). Station 2 is a deep-basin station (water depth > 250m) that was always sampled during each cruise. A shallow station (Station 3 or 4) located in the southwest portion of Wilkinson Basin along the flank of Stellwagen Bank was also sampled regularly. Station 1 is another deep station in Wilkinson Basin that was also previously occupied during the two Gulf of Mexico and East Coast Carbon Cruises (GOMECC 1 and 2) in August 2007 and 2012 respectively. The latter three cruises in 2015 sampled a cross-sectional transect from Station 2 to Station 6 in the southwest of Wilkinson Basin in April - July to study the spring-summer transition.
