pmel8689.dat-rt3_89.dat (Files 3-15)

These 13 data files contain CO2 measurements, hydrographic measurements, and the calculations of in situ fugacities of CO2 for PMEL cruises conducted from 1986-1989. All 13 data files have the same format and can be read by using the following FORTRAN 77 code [contained in pmeldat.for (File 2)]:

Where:

CRUISE is the cruise name;

DAY is the day of sampling (GMT);

MONTH is the month of sampling;

YEAR is the year of sampling;

DAYGMT is the day of the year [expressed in decimal time (GMT)];

LAT is the latitude of the sampling location (decimal degrees; negative values indicate the Southern Hemisphere);

LONG is the longitude of the sampling location (decimal degrees; negative values indicate the Western Hemisphere);

DIST is the cumulative distance since the first sampling location on the leg (km);

TEMP is the sea-surface temperature (°C);

WARM is the warming temperature [indicates the degrees of warming (°C) for seawater as it transited from the intake line to analysis site];

SAL is the sea-surface salinity [Practical Salinity Scale (PSS)];

APRE is the atmospheric pressure (mbar);

XCO2A is the observed mole fraction of CO2 in air [ppm (dry air)];

XCO2SW is the observed mole fraction of CO2 in surface water [corrected for warming, ppm (dry air)];

FCO2A is the calculated in situ fugacity of CO2 in air [µatm (moist air)];

FCO2SW is the calculated in situ fugacity of CO2 in surface water [corrected for warming, µatm (moist air)];

FLAG is the data quality flag:

2 = Acceptable measurements of X(CO2)sw;
3 = Questionable measurements of X(CO2)sw;
5 = Data were not reported;
P = Questionable latitude and/or longitude;

Missing values for variables are represented by -999.9.
