Walton Smith cruise WS0523 (EXPOCODE 33WA20051007), in the North Atlantic ocean from 2005-10-07 to 2005-10-16 (NCEI Accession 0240003)",
    "description": "This dataset contains surface discrete measurements of dissolved inorganic carbon, total alkalinity, water temperature, salinity, nutrients, and other variables collected from profile and flow through (FT) observations during the R\/V F. G. Walton Smith cruise WS0523 (EXPOCODE 33WA20051007), in the North Atlantic ocean from 2005-10-07 to 2005-10-16. Increasing amounts of atmospheric carbon dioxide from human industrial activities are causing changes in global ocean carbon chemistry resulting in a reduction in pH, a process termed ocean acidification. In support of the coastal monitoring and research objectives of the NOAA Ocean Acidification Program (OAP), the South Florida Project Cruises (SFP) are utilized to collect water samples to measure surface water inorganic carbon and hydrographic parameters including nutrients. Samples are collected from 34 stations on a bi-monthly basis to monitor the outflow of the Shark River Slough (SRS) and red tide in the southwestern Gulf of Mexico. Water samples are sent to and analyzed by scientists at the Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory (AOML) for dissolved inorganic carbon, pH, total alkalinity and nutrient concentrations. These data are used to observe the effects of the SRS on acidification in the coastal ocean.",
