Seawater is sprayed into an equilibration chamber and CO2 in the headspace gas equilibrates with the seawater. The headspace gas is pumped through a thermoelectric condenser followed by a nafion drying tube before flowing through a Licor 7000 non-dispersive infrared gas analyser used to measure the CO2 mole fraction (XCO2) of the dried air. The gas flow is stopped temporarily for the CO2 measurements, which are made at atmospheric pressure. A set of four CO2 standards that cover the range of CO2 values expected in the ocean are analysed about every three hours to calibrate the gas analyser. Atmospheric XCO2 (dry) is measured after the standards by pumping clean outside air from an intake on the forward mast of the ship. \n\nSeawater intake and ancillary data:\nThe seawater intake is at about 6 m depth. A remote temperature sensor (Seabird Electronics SBE38) located at the intake is used to measure sea surface temperature (SST). Sea surface salinity is measured using a thermosalinograph (Seabird Electronics SBE21) mounted in the oceanographic lab next to the pCO2 system. The travel time between the intake and CO2 system is typically about 70 seconds with warming usually less than 0.7ºC in cold waters near freezing. The thermosalinograph water is from the same intake and supply line. \n\nMeteorological data, salinity, SST, and ships position and time are taken from the ship’s logging system.&rft.creator=CSIRO Oceans & Atmosphere - Hobart&rft.date=2023&rft.coverage=147.3414,-54.77475 159.5356,-54.77475 159.5356,-42.878567 147.3414,-42.878567 147.3414,-54.77475&rft.coverage=147.3414,-54.77475 159.5356,-54.77475 159.5356,-42.878567 147.3414,-42.878567 147.3414,-54.77475&rft.coverage=true&rft_rights=Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0&rft_subject=Atmosphere&rft_subject=Atmospheric Pressure&rft_subject=Australia&rft_subject=Bluewater and Climate&rft_subject=Carbon Dioxide Measurements&rft_subject=Countries&rft_subject=IMOS Node&rft_subject=IMOS Sub-Facility&rft_subject=Multidisplinary Underway Network&rft_subject=Ocean Biogeochemistry&rft_subject=Ocean Temperature&rft_subject=Ocean Winds&rft_subject=Oceans&rft_subject=SOOP-CO2&rft_subject=Salinity&rft_subject=Sea Surface Temperature&rft_subject=Southern Ocean&rft_subject=Surface Winds&rft_subject=Tasmania&rft_subject=fugacity&rft_subject=pCO2&rft_subject=partial pressure&rft.type=dataset&rft.language=English Access the data
