These 13 data files contain CO2 measurements, hydrographic measurements, and the calculations of in situ fugacities of CO2 for PMEL cruises conducted from 1986-1989. All 13 data files have the same format and can be read by using the following FORTRAN 77 code [contained in pmeldat.for (File 2)]:

Where:
CRUISE is the cruise name;
DAY is the day of sampling (GMT);
MONTH is the month of sampling;
YEAR is the year of sampling;
DAYGMT is the day of the year [expressed in decimal time (GMT)];
LAT is the latitude of the sampling location (decimal degrees; negative values indicate the Southern Hemisphere);
LONG is the longitude of the sampling location (decimal degrees; negative values indicate the Western Hemisphere);
DIST is the cumulative distance since the first sampling location on the leg (km);
TEMP is the sea-surface temperature (°C);
WARM is the warming temperature [indicates the degrees of warming (°C) for seawater as it transited from the intake line to analysis site];
SAL is the sea-surface salinity [Practical Salinity Scale (PSS)];
APRE is the atmospheric pressure (mbar);
XCO2A is the observed mole fraction of CO2 in air [ppm (dry air)];
XCO2SW is the observed mole fraction of CO2 in surface water [corrected for warming, ppm (dry air)];
FCO2A is the calculated in situ fugacity of CO2 in air [µatm (moist air)];
FCO2SW is the calculated in situ fugacity of CO2 in surface water [corrected for warming, µatm (moist air)];
FLAG is the data quality flag:
2 = Acceptable measurements of X(CO2)sw;
3 = Questionable measurements of X(CO2)sw;
5 = Data were not reported;
P = Questionable latitude and/or longitude;
Missing values for variables are represented by -999.9.
