The Ocean Archive System searches our original datasets as they were submitted to us, not individual points or profiles. If you want to search and retrieve ocean profiles in a common format, or objectively analyzed fields, your better option may be to use one of our project applications. See: Access Data

Title: |
Surface seawater and marine boundary layer partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2), temperature and salinity observations made from the Kwakshua Channel (KC) Buoy off the central coast of British Columbia (NCEI Accession 0208810) |
Abstract: |
This dataset includes continuous sea surface measurements of partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2), sea surface temperature and salinity collected from the Kwakshua Channel (KC) Buoy off the central coast of British Columbia from 2018-05-01 to 2023-05-06. Kwakshua Channel, located near Fitz Hugh Sound on the central coast of British Columbia, has been a site for moored, high-resolution measurements of surface seawater and marine boundary layer CO2 content since May 2018. Measurements of in situ temperature, salinity, seawater and atmospheric CO2 partial pressure are made every 30 minutes using a Battelle Seaology (MApCO2) System. The effort to collect these data are part of the Hakai Institute’s directive to advance the understanding of carbon cycling in northeast Pacific coastal settings with specific emphasis on ocean acidification. |
