2010 Summary:
The goal of this research is to initiate time-series measurements of the CO2 system in the Mackenzie River, the major Arctic river in North America. This work will serve as the initial step towards long-term measurements and studies of the impacts of global warming on the CO2 systems in Mackenzie River, its estuary, and adjacent coastal waters.
The field campaigns will include both diurnal and...
