Temperature, salinity, nutrients, freons, oxygen, currents (ADCP), underway and other measurements collected in the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic as part of the Gulf of Mexico and East Coast Carbon Cruise (GOMECC) 2007 (NODC Accession 0066603)

GOMECC Gulf of Mexico and East Coast Carbon Cruise(RB 07-05). North American Carbon Program (NACP) Gulf of Mexico and East Coast Carbon (GOMECC) Cruise on board the R/V Ronald H. Brown from Galveston in the northern Gulf of Mexico to Boston on the East coast. The cruise was designed to obtain a snapshot of concentrations and fluxes of key carbon, physical, and biogeochemical parameters in the coastal realm. The program is in support of the North American Carbon Program (NACP) that has as overriding goal to constrain fluxes of carbon over North America and adjacent seas. This project is in support of the North American Carbon Program (NACP) and represents a collaboration between the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the Earth System Research Laboratory, the University of Miami Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science, the University of South Florida, the University of Georgia,the University of New Hampshire, Texas AM University, the University of Colorado, the University of Southern Mississippi, Loyola College of Maryland, and Lamont Doherty Earth Observatory. The cruise departed Galveston, Texas on July 10, 2007 and arrived in Boston, Massachusetts on August 4, 2007.
