Methods & Sampling

Parameters of the carbonate system in seawater were determined with the seacarb R package using measured values of pHT, AT, temperature, and salinity.

See Comeau et al. (2017) for a detailed overview of the methodology.

BCO-DMO Data Manager Processing Notes:
* Data submitted as sheet "Carbonate chemistry" in original excel file "comeau et al. 2017_proceedings_data.xlsx" exported as csv with the formatting that was set in Excel.
* added a conventional header with dataset name, PI name, version date
* modified parameter names to conform with BCO-DMO naming conventions: only A-Za-z0-9 and underscore allowed. Can not start with a number. (spaces, +, and - changed to underscores).
* Date format converted to ISO 8601 format yyyy-mm-dd

Supplied Name: Mettler Toledo T50

Supplied Description:

TA: Mettler Toledo T50

Instrument Type

Generic Name: Automatic titrator

Community Identifier: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L05/current/LAB12/

Generic Description:

Instruments that incrementally add quantified aliquots of a reagent to a sample until the end-point of a chemical reaction is reached.

pH Sensor

Supplied Name:

Supplied Description:

Confocal pH: pH-sensitive dye SNARF-1. Photographed with Leica SP5, Germany. See methods in Venn et al. 2011.

Instrument Type

Generic Name: pH Sensor

Generic Description:

An instrument that measures the hydrogen ion activity in solutions.

The overall concentration of hydrogen ions is inversely related to its pH. The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14 and indicates whether acidic (more H+) or basic (less H+).

Salinity Sensor

Supplied Name: YSI 3100

Supplied Description:

Instrument Type

Generic Name: Salinity Sensor

Community Identifier: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L05/current/350/

Generic Description:

Category of instrument that simultaneously measures electrical conductivity and temperature in the water column to provide temperature and salinity data.

Water Temperature Sensor

Supplied Name: ThermoFisher Traceable

Supplied Description:

Instrument Type

Generic Name: Water Temperature Sensor

Acronym: Water Temp Sensor

Community Identifier: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L05/current/134/

Generic Description:

General term for an instrument that measures the temperature of the water with which it is in contact (thermometer).
