Description:
Kwakshua Channel, located near Fitz Hugh Sound on the central coast of British Columbia, has been a site for moored, high-resolution measurements of surface seawater and marine boundary layer CO2 content since May 2018. Measurements of in situ temperature, salinity, seawater and atmospheric CO2 partial pressure are made using a Battelle Seaology (MApCO2) System. The effort to collect these data are part of the Hakai Institute’s directive to advance the understanding of carbon cycling in northeast Pacific coastal settings with specific emphasis on ocean acidification. This data contribution consists of measurements since May 1, 2018. Le chenal Kwakshua, situé près du détroit de Fitz Hugh sur la côte centrale de la Colombie-Britannique, est un site de mesures à haute résolution de la teneur en CO2 de l'eau de mer de surface et de la couche limite marine depuis mai 2018. L'instrumentation installé sur une bouée de surface mesure de la température etla salinité de l'eau de mer de surface ainsi que la pression partielle atmosphérique de CO2 est réalisée à l'aide d'un système Battelle Seaology (MApCO2). L’effort de collecte de ces données fait partie de la directive de l’Institut Hakai visant à faire progresser la compréhension du cycle du carbone dans les zones côtières du nord-est du Pacifique, en mettant particulièrement l’accent sur l’acidification des océans. Cette contribution de données comprend des mesures depuis le 1er mai 2018.
