Title: Dissolved inorganic carbon, total alkalinity, pH, and other variables collected from time series and profile observations using CTD, Niskin bottle, and other instruments near CenGOOS buoy off the coast of Mississippi in the Gulf of Mexico from 2012-10-15 to 2014-04-22 (NCEI Accession 0131199)
Abstract: This dataset contains time series profile (discrete bottle) data that were collected at the Central Gulf of Mexico Ocean Observing System (CenGOOS) buoy off the coast of Mississippi. The CenGOOS 3-m discus buoy serves as a platform for a NOAA Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL) Moored Autonomous pCO2 (MAPCO2®) system. Cruises are conducted on an approximately quarterly basis to take water samples for analyses to validate the MAPCO2 measurements. Water samples for DIC and Total Alkalinity and pH are sent to Wei-Jun Cai's lab at the University of Delaware for analyses.
