Partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide, eater temperature, salinity and other variables collected from surface underway observations during NOAA Ship Henry B. Bigelow cruises in the North Atlantic Ocean, US East Coast from 2011-03-01 to 2012-08-24 (NCEI Accession 0157459)

This dataset includes surface underway, chemical, meteorological and physical data collected during NOAA Ship Henry B. Bigelow cruises in the North Atlantic Ocean, US East Coast from 2011-03-01 to 2012-08-24. These data include partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide - atmosphere, partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide - water, barometric pressure, sea surface salinity and sea surface temperature. The instruments used to collect these data include Carbon dioxide (CO2) gas analyzer and Shower head chamber equilibrator for autonomous carbon dioxide (CO2) measurement. These data were collected by Christopher C. Taylor and Jonathan A. Hare of NMFS/NEFSC/Narragansett Lab and Kevin F. Sullivan and Rik Wanninkhof of NOAA Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory (AOML) as part of the Bigelow_ECoast_2011_2012 dataset. The Global Coastal Carbon Data Project data includes the bottle (discrete) and surface (underway) carbon-related measurements from coastal research cruises, the data from time series cruises and coastal moorings. The coastal regions data are very important for the understanding of carbon cycle on the continental margins.

本数据集涵盖2011年3月1日至2012年8月24日期间，美国国家海洋和大气管理局（National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, NOAA）亨利·B·比奇洛号科考船在北大西洋、美国东海岸海域执行航次时采集的走航表层、化学、气象及物理海洋数据。
此类数据包含大气二氧化碳分压（或逸度）、海水二氧化碳分压（或逸度）、大气压力、海表盐度与海表温度。
用于采集本数据集的仪器包括二氧化碳（CO₂）气体分析仪，以及用于自主二氧化碳测量的淋浴头式平衡舱（Shower head chamber equilibrator）。
本数据集由国家海洋渔业局（National Marine Fisheries Service, NMFS）/东北渔业科学中心（Northeast Fisheries Science Center, NEFSC）/纳拉甘西特实验室（Narragansett Lab）的Christopher C. Taylor与Jonathan A. Hare，以及NOAA大西洋海洋与气象实验室（Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory, AOML）的Kevin F. Sullivan和Rik Wanninkhof共同采集，作为Bigelow_ECoast_2011_2012数据集的组成部分。
全球沿海碳数据项目（Global Coastal Carbon Data Project）的数据涵盖沿海科考航次的瓶装（离散）及走航表层碳相关测量数据、时间序列航次数据与沿海锚系观测数据。
沿海区域数据对于理解大陆边缘碳循环具有至关重要的意义。
