©2020 Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office.The data show that the average value of pCO2 in surface seawater in the Exclusive Economic Zone of Qatar is supersaturated with respect to the atmosphere. The excess pCO2 reflects a balance between a source due to the impact of increasing T and S on the carbonate system equilibrium constants and a sink due to CO2 loss due to gas exchange from surface seawater after it enters the Gulf through the Strait of Hormuz. Nevertheless, CaCO3 formation was still more important, relative to net biologica...
