Dissolved inorganic carbon, total alkalinity, pH, and other variables collected from surface discrete observations onboard R/V Joe Ferguson in the U.S. East Coast near Gray's Reef National Marine Sanctuary for 2012-02-02 (NCEI Accession 0185764)

This dataset contains discrete bottle sample data collected from the Gray's Reef mooring, within the Gray's Reef National Marine Sanctuary in February. Samples were collected from the surface layer, treated with 0.1 µL of HgCl2, stored on ice, and transported to the University of Delaware for DIC and TAlk analysis. Data is used to calculate pCO2 and compared to moored observations for internal consistency and validation of time series observations.
