Abstract

This dataset contains underway data from four organic alkalinity estuary transects, in May and October of 2018 and 2019, completed in the Pleasant (Maine, USA) and St. John (New Brunswick, Canada) estuaries. See "Related Datasets" section for alkalinity data. Discrete samples were collected at intervals of salinity along each estuary. An underway measurements system was also operated during each transect. Discrete samples were analyzed via a number of methods described below. Underway measur...
