These data include ALKALINITY, DISSOLVED OXYGEN, HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, PHOSPHATE, Potential temperature (theta), SALINITY, WATER TEMPERATURE and pH. The instruments used to collect these data include Alkalinity titrator, CTD, bottle and pH meter. These data were collected by Alberto Borges of University of Liege and Lei Chou of Université Libre de Bruxelles as part of the COASTAL_Belgica_2008_12 dataset. CDIAC assigned the following cruise ID(s) to this dataset: COASTAL_Belgica_2008_12. The Global Coastal Carbon Data Project data includes the bottle (discrete) and surface (underway) carbon-related measurements from coastal research cruises, the data from time series cruises and coastal moorings. The coastal regions data are very important for the understanding of carbon cycle on the continental margins. This dataset is available to the public for a wide variety of uses including scientific research and analysis. completed historicalArchive NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information ncei.info@noaa.gov https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/contact HTTPS NCEI Contact Information Information for contacts at NCEI. information pointOfContact asNeeded https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/metadata/landing-page/bin/gfx?id=gov.noaa.nodc:0112840 Preview graphic PNG 0112840 NCEI ACCESSION NUMBER 2013-09-05 publication DISSOLVED OXYGEN HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE pH phosphate Potential temperature (theta) SALINITY total alkalinity WATER TEMPERATURE theme NODC DATA TYPES THESAURUS bottle CTD pH sensor titrator instrument NODC INSTRUMENT TYPES THESAURUS chemical discrete sample physical profile theme NODC OBSERVATION TYPES THESAURUS BELGICA platform NODC PLATFORM NAMES THESAURUS University of Liège dataCentre NODC COLLECTING INSTITUTION NAMES THESAURUS Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center dataCentre NODC SUBMITTING INSTITUTION NAMES THESAURUS North Atlantic Ocean place NODC SEA AREA NAMES THESAURUS oceanography theme WMO_CategoryCode 2012-09-15 publication DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NODC > National Oceanographic Data Center, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce DOE/ORNL/ESD/CDIAC > Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center, Environmental Sciences Division, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, U.
