13 files, This dataset gathers discrete measurements of CO2 (pH and alkalinity) and hydrographic variables (salinity, temperature, dissolved oxygen, nitrate, phosphate and silicate) in 10 cruises between 2005 and 2007 in the GIFT Time Series Stations located at the Strait of Gibraltar. pH was measured spectrophotometrically following the Clayton and Byrne (1993). This method consists on adding a dye solution to the seawater sample, so that the ratio between two absorbances at two different wavelengths is proportional to the sample pH. Alkalinity was measured using an automatic potentiometric titrator Titrando 794 Metrohm, with a Metrohm 6.0232.100 combination glass electrode and a Pt-1000 probe for temperature measurement following the methodology given by Pérez and Fraga (1987). Dissolved oxygen was analyzed following the widely applied Winkler method. Determinations of nitrate, phosphate and silicate were carried out following methods described by Hansen and Grassoff (1983) Salinity and Temperature were recorded with a CTD probe, Data are part of the EC-funded Integrated Project CARBOOCEAN - Marine carbon sources and sinks assessment Contract no. 511176 (GOCE), more details available at http://www.carboocean.org/, CARBOGIB2005.exc.xlsx.-- Metadata_CARBOGIB2005_Dec2005.xls.-- Metadata_CARBOGIB2005_Dec2006.xls.-- Metadata_CARBOGIB2005_July2007.xls.-- Metadata_CARBOGIB2005_March2006.xls.-- Metadata_CARBOGIB2005_May2005.xls.-- Metadata_CARBOGIB2005_May2006.xls.-- Metadata_CARBOGIB2005_May2007.xls.-- Metadata_CARBOGIB2005_Nov2006.xls.-- Metadata_CARBOGIB2005_Nov2007.xls.-- Metadata_CARBOGIB2005_Sep2005.xls.-- Discrete_measurement_methodology.docx.-- Readme_discrete_2007, Peer reviewed
