Dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total alkalinity, water temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, nutrients and other hydrographic and chemical data collected from discrete samples and profile observations during the CCGS Louis S. St-Laurent Joint Ocean Ice Study (JOIS-10) cruise (EXPOCODE 18SN20100915) in the Arctic Ocean from 2010-09-15 to 2010-10-15 (NCEI Accession 0232263)

This NCEI Accession includes discrete profile measurements of Dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total alkalinity, water temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, nutrients and other hydrographic and chemical data collected from discrete samples and profile observations during the CCGS Louis S. St-Laurent Joint Ocean Ice Study (JOIS-10) cruise (EXPOCODE 18SN20100915) in the Arctic Ocean from 2010-09-15 to 2010-10-15. The Joint Ocean Ice Study (JOIS) in 2010 involved the collaboration of Fisheries and Oceans Canada researchers with colleagues primarily from the U.S.A and Japan.

This program forms an important Canadian contribution to international climate research programs and is comprised of two ongoing programs: the Beaufort Gyre Exploration Project (BGEP), a collaboration with Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution scientists and the Pan-Arctic Climate Investigation (PACI), a collaboration with Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology (JAMSTEC) scientists. In 2010 JOIS also included ancillary programs carried out by researchers from: the International Arctic Research Center (IARC) in Fairbanks Alaska; Tokyo University of Marine Science and Technology (TUMSAT), Japan; Kitami Institute of Technology (KIT), Japan.
