Abstract:
Continuous surface water fCO2 dataset from RV Kronprins Haakon in the Barents Sea and Nansen Basin in the period 2018/Aug/08 - 2019/Dec/17. Data covered the area lat/lon bounds of dataset: lat 68N to 84.7N and long -16E to 35.8E. Data is used in the projects Nansen Legacy and COMFORT and presented in the manuscript by Ericson et al. 2023

Quality
General Oceanics 8050 continuous pCO2 measurements setup, where fCO2 of surface seawater is calculated from xCO2 closely following the methods of Pierrot et al. 2009 (P09).The STD gases 2 to 4 were used for calibration. Discrete water samples and analysed carbonate chemistry variables were used to further quality control the data.
