Dissolved inorganic carbon, pH, alkalinity, temperature, salinity and other variables collected from discrete sample and profile observations using CTD, Coulometer for DIC measurement and other instruments from the OSHORO MARU in the North Pacific Ocean from 2002-06-06 to 2002-06-19 (NCEI Accession 0112272)

NODC Accession 0112272 includes chemical, discrete sample, physical and profile data collected from OSHORO MARU in the North Pacific Ocean from 2002-06-06 to 2002-06-19 and retrieved during cruise OS02-01 and PACIFICA_49OS20020606. These data include ALKALINITY, AMMONIUM, DISSOLVED INORGANIC CARBON, DISSOLVED OXYGEN, HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, NITRATE, NITRITE, PHOSPHATE, SALINITY, SILICATE, WATER TEMPERATURE and pH. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD, Coulometer for DIC measurement and bottle. These data were collected by Yutaka W. Watanabe of Hokkaido University as part of the PACIFICA_49OS20020606 data set.

PACIFICA (PACIFic ocean Interior CArbon) was an international collaborative project for the data synthesis of ocean interior carbon and its related parameters in the Pacific Ocean. The North Pacific Marine Science Organization (PICES), Section of Carbon and Climate (S-CC) supported the project.
