This dataset contains carbonate system data collected by scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center to investigate the effects of carbon cycling, coastal and ocean acidification on the Tampa Bay estuary located in west central Florida, USA. These data were collected using an autonomous instrument called the Ocean Carbon System version 2 (OCSv2) deployed on the seafloor in Tampa Bay. The OCSv2 consists of four sensors integrated into a Sea-Bird Scientific (Satlantic) STOR-X submersible data logger including a Satlantic SeapHOx sensor for measurement of pH that incorporates a Sea-Bird SBE 37-SMP-ODO MicroCAT C-T-ODO (P) Recorder for measurement of conductivity (for calculation of salinity), temperature, depth, and dissolved oxygen; a Pro-Oceanus CO2-Pro CV CO2 sensor; and a Wetlabs Eco-PAR sensor for measurement of photosynthetically active radiation. The dataset is a time series of carbonate system parameters including: water temperature (Celsius, °C), pressure (decibar, dbar), salinity, pHT (pH on the total scale), carbon dioxide (parts per million, ppm), pressure from the CO2-Pro Infrared Gas Analyzer (IRGA) (millibars, mbar), dissolved oxygen (milligrams per liter, mg/L) and photosynthetically active radiation (microEinsteins). Each parameter was measured every hour for 24-hour time periods throughout the duration of deployment.

This dataset contains discrete measurements of water temperature, salinity, total dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total titration alkalinity (TA), pH on total scale, and calcium concentration. These data were collected between April 2014 and April 2018 in Lavaca-Matagorda, Guadalupe-San Antonio, Nueces-Corpus Christi estuaries along the northwestern Gulf of Mexico.

These data are from the article “Seasonal carbonate chemistry dynamics on southeast Florida coral reefs: localized acidification hotspots from navigational inlets” published in Frontiers in Marine Science. The data in this package were collected from inlets and reefs along the coast of Southeast Florida. Water was collected bi-monthly from four reefs (Oakland Ridge, Barracuda, Pillars, and Emerald) and three closely-associated inlets (Port Everglades, Bakers Haulover, and Port of Miami). Water samples were collected at these locations either at the surface (~1m depth) or immediately above the benthos measured using a rosette sampler (ECO 55, Seabird). Temperature was recorded at each depth using a CTD (SBE 19V2, Seabird). Turbidity (NTU) was measured at time of water collection. Once collected, water samples were transferred to borosilicate glass bottles, samples were fixed using 200 µL of HgCl2 and sealed using Apiezon grease and a glass stopper. Salinity was measured using a densitometer (DMA 5000M, Anton Paar), while total alkalinity (TA) and dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) were determined using Apollo SciTech instruments (AS-ALK2 and AS-C3, respectively). All values were measured in duplicate and corrected using certified reference materials following recommendations in Dickson et al. (2007). Aragonite saturation state (ΩArag.), Calcite saturation state (ΩCa), pH (Total scale), and the partial pressure of CO2 (pCO2) were calculated with CO2SYS (Lewis and Wallace, 1998) using the dissociation constants of Mehrbach et al. (1973) as refit by Dickson and Millero (1987) and Dickson (1990). Water samples were reserved for nutrient analyzed at time of collection to determine Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen, Total Phosphorus, and fluorescence of Chlorophyll-a. This research was supported through NOAA’s Coral Reef Conservation Program.
