Title: CARBON DIOXIDE - PARTIAL PRESSURE (pCO2) - SEA and Other Data from MULTIPLE SHIPS From TOGA Area - Pacific (30 N to 30 S) from 1989-01-01 to 1989-12-31 (NCEI Accession 9500075)
Abstract: Sea/air gas ratios data was collected in TOGA Area - Pacific (30 N to 30 S) between January 1, 1989 and December 31, 1989 during cruises conducted using ships WECOMA, KILA and MOANA WAVE as part of the Hawaii Ocean Time-Series (HOTS) project, to fulfill the requirements of the World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE). Oxygen / Argon ratios; Oxygen / Nitrogen ratio and Oxygen-18 isotope / at depth vs. air were measured by University of Washington, Seattle, WA. Data was reported in Emerson, Quay, et al., "O2, Ar, N2 and 222Rn in Surface Waters of the Subarctic Ocean: Net Biological O2 Production", Global Biogeochemical Cycles, vol 5, pp49-69.

Supplementary information: Note: Metadata for this accession were extracted from a legacy database maintained by the U.S. National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC). The design of the database did not exactly reflect the FGDC Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM).

Principal Investigator (PI) and organization contact information accurately represents all available information from the legacy database at the time that this description was created. However, proper attribution of a PI to a specific institution or the role (submitting or collecting) taken by an institution may not be correct due to inexact mapping between fields in the legacy database and the CSDGM. Due to this uncertainty, the contact information was initially recorded in the Supplemental Information element of the CSDGM description.

To develop more accurate metadata, NCEI reviews metadata for all accessions on an ongoing basis.
