Title: Sea surface pCO2, temperature, and salinity survey on the South Atlantic Bight in 2005 (NODC Accession 0051983)
Abstract: The survey was carried out on six cruises: 5-16 January 2005, 19-30 March 2005, 27 July - 5 August 2005, 7-17 October 2005, 16-21 December 2005, and 17-27 May 2006. In all of the sampling cruises except for the one in December 2005, the research vessel transected the whole SAB from coastline to about 500 m water depth. The survey focused on 5 cross-shelf transects that are named E-, D-, C-, B-, and A-transects respectively from north to south. In December 2005 the ship still transected the whole SAB, but did not cover D- and B-transects and did not go beyond the 200 m isobath.
