Description

Continuous PCO2 data from Whiskey Creek Shellfish Hatchery 2011. Bandstra et al. 2006 contains information on analytical procedures and flow-through instrument design and methods in J. Vance thesis.

Methods & Sampling

Sampling and Analytical methods included in Bandstra et al. 2006 and J. Vance thesis. PCO2 measured by recirculating headspace air through the sample stream collected off of the hatchery intake line and CO2 was analyzed with a nondispersive infrared detector. Analytical accuracy and precision is estimated to be less than 5%.

Data Processing Description

Data were collected at a sampling frequency of 1 Hz, with a data reduction to 1 minute frequency using a smoothing function developed by Dr. Hales (see contact information above).

BCO-DMO edits made:
- modified parameter names to conform with BCO-DMO naming conventions;
- calculated month, day, and time using year and julian_day values.
