Dissolved inorganic carbon, pH, alkalinity, temperature, salinity and other variables collected from discrete sample and profile observations using CTD, bottle and other instruments from the HESPERIDES in the North Atlantic Ocean from 1998-07-30 to 1998-08-21 (NCEI Accession 0113756)

This dataset includes chemical, discrete sample, physical and profile data collected from HESPERIDES in the North Atlantic Ocean from 1998-07-30 to 1998-08-21 and retrieved during cruise CARINA/29HE19980730. These data include ALKALINITY, AMMONIUM, DISSOLVED INORGANIC CARBON, DISSOLVED OXYGEN, HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, NITRATE, PHOSPHATE, Potential temperature (theta), SALINITY, SILICATE, WATER TEMPERATURE and pH. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD and bottle. These data were collected by Javier Arístegui of Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO), Aída F. Ríos and Fiz F. Pérez of Institute of Marine Research Vigo (IIM), and Marta Álvarez of Spanish Institute of Oceanography (IEO) as part of the CARINA/29HE19980730 dataset.

The CARINA (CARbon dioxide IN the Atlantic Ocean) data synthesis project is an international collaborative effort of the EU IP CARBOOCEAN, and U.S. partners. It has produced a merged internally consistent dataset of open ocean subsurface measurements for biogeochemical investigations, in particular, studies involving the carbon system. The original focus area was the North Atlantic Ocean, but over time the geographic extent expanded and CARINA now includes data from the entire Atlantic, the Arctic Ocean, and the Southern Ocean.

本数据集涵盖1998年7月30日至1998年8月21日期间，于北大西洋海域HESPERIDES站位采集的化学、离散样品、物理及剖面数据，相关数据随CARINA/29HE19980730航次回收获取。所涉数据包括碱度（ALKALINITY）、铵盐（AMMONIUM）、溶解无机碳（DISSOLVED INORGANIC CARBON）、溶解氧（DISSOLVED OXYGEN）、静水压力（HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE）、硝酸盐（NITRATE）、磷酸盐（PHOSPHATE）、位温（Potential temperature，θ）、盐度（SALINITY）、硅酸盐（SILICATE）、水温（WATER TEMPERATURE）以及pH值。采集此类数据所用仪器包括CTD（温盐深剖面仪）与采水器。本数据集由英联邦科学与工业研究组织（Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization, CSIRO）的哈维尔·阿里斯特吉（Javier Arístegui）、维戈海洋研究所（Institute of Marine Research Vigo, IIM）的艾达·F·里奥斯（Aída F. Ríos）与菲兹·F·佩雷斯（Fiz F. Pérez），以及西班牙海洋学研究所（Spanish Institute of Oceanography, IEO）的马尔塔·阿尔瓦雷斯（Marta Álvarez）共同采集，作为CARINA/29HE19980730数据集的一部分。

大西洋二氧化碳数据综合项目（CARbon dioxide IN the Atlantic Ocean，简称CARINA）是欧盟集成项目CARBOOCEAN与美国合作方共同开展的国际协作项目。该项目已生成一套经整合且内部一致的开阔海洋次表层测量数据集，用于生物地球化学研究，尤其是涉及碳系统的相关研究。项目最初的聚焦区域为北大西洋，但随着时间推移，地理覆盖范围逐步扩大，如今CARINA数据集已涵盖整个大西洋、北冰洋以及南大洋的相关数据。
