Partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2), temperature, salinity and other variables collected from surface underway observations using shower head equilibrator, carbon dioxide gas detector and other instruments from 6 trans-Pacific crossings onboard container ship Cap Blanche in the Pacific Ocean from 2017-11-17 to 2018-09-04 (NCEI Accession 0183468)

This dataset contains underway measurements of pCO2, salinity, sea surface temperature, and other parameters collected during 6 trans-Pacific crossings in 2017 and 2018 on the container ship Cap Blanche. Cruise names and expocodes: CB2017_11 (AG5W20171117), CB2018_01 (AG5W20180112), CB2018_03 (AG5W20180309), CB2018_05 (AG5W20180502), CB2018_07 (AG5W20180630), CB2018_09 (AG5W20180827). All cruises were transits between the North American West Coast and New Zealand. This effort was conducted in support of NOAA's Climate Program Office (CPO), and Ocean Acidification Program (OAP).

本数据集收录了2017至2018年间，在集装箱货轮“布兰奇号”（Cap Blanche）上完成的6次跨太平洋航行期间采集的分压二氧化碳（pCO2）、盐度、海表面温度及其他相关参数的走航观测数据。本次航次的名称及对应航次编码如下：CB2017_11（AG5W20171117）、CB2018_01（AG5W20180112）、CB2018_03（AG5W20180309）、CB2018_05（AG5W20180502）、CB2018_07（AG5W20180630）、CB2018_09（AG5W20180827）。所有航次均为往返于北美西海岸与新西兰之间的跨太平洋航线。本数据集的采集工作得到了美国国家海洋和大气管理局（National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, NOAA）气候项目办公室（Climate Program Office, CPO）与海洋酸化项目（Ocean Acidification Program, OAP）的支持。
