This dataset includes surface underway, chemical, meteorological, physical data collected during NOAA Ship Ronald H. Brown cruises in the in the North Atlantic Ocean, South Atlantic Ocean, South Pacific Ocean and Gulf of Mexico from 2010-01-02 to 2010-12-20. These data include partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide (pCO2), sea surface temperature, sea surface salinity and other variables. The instruments used to collect these data include Carbon dioxide (CO2) gas analyzer and Shower head chamber equilibrator for autonomous carbon dioxide (CO2) measurement. These data were collected by Rik Wanninkhof of NOAA Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory as part of NOAA Ship Ronald H. Brown 2010 Underway Data data set.
