Peterson of NMFS-Newport, Gregory C. Johnson, Richard A. Feely, and Simone R. Alin of NOAA Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL), and Burke Hales and Laurie W. Juranek of Oregon State CEOAS (OSU-CEOAS) as part of the WCOA2012 dataset. CDIAC associated the following cruise ID(s) with this dataset: WCOA2012

This dataset contains the discrete carbon data collected during the 2016 West Coast Ocean Acidification (WCOA) cruise. WCOA2016 took place May 5 to June 7, 2016 aboard NOAA Ship Ronald H. Brown. It is the most integrated WCOA cruise so far, with 132 stations occupied from Baja California in Mexico to Vancouver Island in Canada along seventeen transect lines. At all stations, CTD casts were conducted, and discrete water samples were collected in Niskin bottles. The cruise was designed to obtain a synoptic snapshot of key carbon, physical, and biogeochemical parameters as they relate to ocean acidification (OA) in the coastal realm. Physical, biogeochemical, and chlorophyll concentration data collected during CTD casts are included with this data set. During the cruise, some of the same transect lines were occupied as during the 2007, 2011, 2012, and 2013 West Coast Ocean Acidification cruises, as well as CalCOFI cruises. This effort was conducted in support of the coastal monitoring and research objectives of the NOAA Ocean Acidification Program (OAP). Data Use Policy: Data from NOAA West Coast Ocean Acidification (WCOA) cruises are made freely available to the public and the scientific community in the belief that their wide dissemination will lead to greater understanding and new scientific and policy insights. The investigators sharing these data rely on the ethics and integrity of the user to ensure that the institutions and investigators involved in producing the WCOA cruise datasets receive fair credit for their work. If the data are obtained for potential use in a publication or presentation, we urge the end user to inform the investigators listed herein at the outset of the nature of this work. If these data are essential to the work, or if an important result or conclusion depends on these data, co-authorship may be appropriate. This should be discussed at an early stage in the work. We request that any manuscripts using these data be sent to all investigators listed in the metadata before they are submitted for publication so that we can ensure that the quality and limitations of the data are accurately represented. Please direct all queries about this dataset to Simone Alin and Richard Feely.

This dataset includes chemical, discrete sample, physical and profile data collected from NOAA Ship DELAWARE II in the North Atlantic Ocean and Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary from 2012-02-02 to 2012-02-19. These data include AMMONIUM (NH4), DISSOLVED INORGANIC CARBON (DIC), DISSOLVED OXYGEN, HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, NITRATE, SALINITY, SIGMA-THETA, TOTAL ALKALINITY (TA), WATER TEMPERATURE, pH, phosphate and silicate. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD and bottle. These data were collected by Donald C. Melrose of NMFS/NEFSC/Narragansett Lab and Denis Pierrot, Leticia Barbero, and Rik Wanninkhof of NOAA Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory (AOML) as part of the Coastal_Delware_II_2012 dataset. CDIAC associated the following cruise ID(s) with this dataset: DE_1202 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.

This dataset contains carbon and nutrient related data that were collected from CTD profile measurements in the Northeast coast of the United States (EXPOCODE: 316G20120202, CRUISE ID: DE1202). Increasing amounts of atmospheric carbon dioxide from human industrial activities are causing changes in global ocean carbon chemistry resulting in a reduction in pH, a process termed ocean acidification. Studies have demonstrated adverse effects on calcifying organisms, particularly some invertebrates, corals, sea urchins, pteropods, and coccolithophores. This effort is in support of the coastal monitoring and research objectives of the NOAA Ocean Acidification Program (OAP).
