Parameter Description Units
yrday day of year 1992 (GMT) decimal days
lat latitude, ship's position at the time of decimal degrees
pCO2 measurement (- denotes south)
lon longitude, ship's position at the time of decimal degrees
pCO2 measurement (- denotes west)
temp sea surface temperature measured underway degrees Celsius
via the ship's thermo-salinometer
sal sea surface salinity measured underway parts per thousand
via the ship's thermo-salinometer
pCO2_air partial pressure of CO2 in sea surface microatmospheres
air, measured at ship's bow while
underway (corrected to 100% humidity)
pCO2_sea partial pressure of CO2 in surface microatmospheres
seawater, pumped at ship's bow while
underway (corrected to 100% humidity)
