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 MIRAI in the North Pacific Ocean from 2003-05-21 to 2003-06-06 (NCEI Accession 0112260)

NODC Accession 0112260 includes chemical, discrete sample, physical and profile data collected from MIRAI in the North Pacific Ocean from 2003-05-21 to 2003-06-06 and retrieved during cruise MR03-K02 and PACIFICA_49NZ20030521. 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 Akihiko Murata and Hirofumi Yamamoto of Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology (Jamstec) as part of the PACIFICA_49NZ20030521 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.
