Surface underway measurements of fugacity of carbon dioxide (fCO2, seawater and atmospheric), water temperature and salinity from 5 cruises in the equatorial Pacific Ocean, collected onboard NOAA Ship Ka'imimoana in 2007 (NCEI Accession 0081042)

This dataset contains data from underway fCO2 (seawater and atmospheric), temperature, and salinity measurements collected on 5 equatorial Pacific cruises from 2007-03-07 to 2007-10-25 as part of a ship-of-opportunity time-series. Cruise names and expocodes: KA2007_01 (33KM20070307), KA2007_02 (33KM20070508), KA2007_03 (33KM20070716), KA2007_04 (33KM20070814), KA2007_05 (33KM20070920). Since 1982, NOAA's Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory has made underway CO2 observations in the equatorial Pacific as a companion project to the Global Tropical Moored Buoy Array. This effort was conducted with the support of NOAA's Global Ocean Monitoring and Observing Program.

本数据集收录了2007年3月7日至2007年10月25日期间，5次赤道太平洋随航航次采集的走航式二氧化碳分压（fCO2，涵盖海水与大气）、温度及盐度观测数据，属于随航船舶时间序列观测项目的组成部分。航次名称及对应航次代码如下：KA2007_01（33KM20070307）、KA2007_02（33KM20070508）、KA2007_03（33KM20070716）、KA2007_04（33KM20070814）、KA2007_05（33KM20070920）。自1982年起，美国国家海洋和大气管理局（National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, NOAA）下属的太平洋海洋环境实验室（Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory, PMEL），以全球热带系泊浮标阵列（Global Tropical Moored Buoy Array）配套研究项目的名义，在赤道太平洋区域开展走航式二氧化碳观测工作。本次观测工作得到了美国国家海洋和大气管理局全球海洋监测与观测计划（Global Ocean Monitoring and Observing Program）的资助支持。
