Abstract
The Ecosystem Science and Modeling lab has been collecting water samples from five stations in the Mission-Aransas Estuary (MAE, Northwest Gulf of Mexico, Texas coast) for carbonate system characterization on a monthly to twice monthly basis since May 2014. This dataset includes temperature, salinity, dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total alkalinity (TA), calcium, and pH measurements from surface and bottom water samples in MAE from May 2014 – Feb 2017 and Dec 2018 – Feb 2020. Additional data for this estuary to fill in the Feb 2017 – Dec 2018 gap are also archived with BCO-DMO (http://www.bco-dmo.org/dataset/784673, doi:10.1575/1912/bco-dmo.784673.1). For a complete list of measurements, refer to the full dataset description in the supplemental file 'Dataset_description.pdf'. The most current version of this dataset is available at: https://www.bco-dmo.org/dataset/835227
