This dataset contains data from underway fCO2 (seawater and atmospheric), temperature, and salinity measurements collected on 4 equatorial Pacific cruises from 2006-01-13 to 2006-08-01 as part of a ship-of-opportunity time-series. Cruise names and expocodes: KA2006_01 (33KM20060113), KA2006_02 (33KM20060401), KA2006_03 (33KM20060531), KA2006_04 (33KM20060707). Since 1982, NOAA's Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory has made underway CO2 observations in the equatorial Pacific as a companion project to the Global Tropical Moored Buoy Array. This effort was conducted with the support of NOAA's Global Ocean Monitoring and Observing Program.
