Dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total alkalinity, pH on total scale, nutrients and other variables collected from profile and discrete samples observations during NOAA Ship Pisces cruise PC2205 (EXPOCODE 334B20221101) in the North Atlantic Ocean, Gulf of Maine, Georges Bank, Mid-Atlantic Bight from 2022-11-01 to 2022-11-09 (NCEI Accession 0283758)
Increasing amounts of atmospheric carbon dioxide from human industrial activities are causing changes in global ocean carbon chemistry ultimately resulting in a reduction in pH, a process termed ocean acidification. Studies have demonstrated adverse effects on calcifying organisms, particularly some invertebrates, …
