Abstract

These are CO2-system data from a moored sensor in the York River, a tributary of the Chesapeake Bay. Temperature, salinity and pH were acquired hourly over two deployments lasting several months. Sensor data were then averaged to 24-hour resolution. Data were calibrated with discrete dissolved inorganic carbon (TCO2) and alkalinity samples analyzed at the Virginia Institute of Marine Science, following standard procedures. The pH sensor data were then combined with salinity data, and a relations...

A SeapHOx sensor was deployed at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Chesapeake Bay Interpretive Buoy SystemYork River Buoy (latitude: 37.20°N, longitude 76.27°W) with roughly 8-m water depth. Two deployments can be found in the dataset: Deployment 1 (D1) between November 2016 and April 2017 and Deployment 2 (D2) between December 2017 and June 2018.

Temperature, salinity and pH were acquired hourly over two deployments lasting several months.
