Dissolved inorganic carbon, alkalinity, temperature, salinity and other variables collected from discrete sample and profile observations using CTD, bottle and other instruments from the JAN MAYEN in the Barents Sea from 2003-07-10 to 2003-07-18 (NCEI Accession 0113565)

This dataset includes chemical, discrete sample, physical and profile data collected from JAN MAYEN in the Barents Sea from 2003-07-10 to 2003-07-18 and retrieved during cruise CARINA/58JM20030710. These data include ALKALINITY, AMMONIUM, DISSOLVED INORGANIC CARBON, HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, NITRATE, NITRITE, PHOSPHATE, Potential temperature (theta), SALINITY, SILICATE and WATER TEMPERATURE. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD and bottle. These data were collected by Richard G. J. Bellerby of Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research (AWI), Caroline Kivimäe of National University of Ireland - Galway, and Paul Wassmann of Norwegian College of Fishery Science, University of Tromsø as part of the CARINA/58JM20030710 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.
