Measurements of dissolved inorganic carbon and pH on the total scale were also made as quality control checks. GLODAPv2 hinted at a potential offset between laboratories in the Pacific Ocean. We hypothesized that if non-negligible amounts of organic alkalinity were present, the different methods could be titrating different amounts leading to differences between the methods. The results show that any offset is within the uncertainty of the analytical precision and presence of organic alkalinity in open ocean waters remains inconclusive.\n\ncdm_data_type = Other\nVARIABLES:\nCruise (unitless)\nsample_ID (unitless)\nStation (unitless)\nCast (unitless)\nNiskinBottle_No (unitless)\nDate (unitless)\ntime_unitless (Time, unitless)\ntime (Iso_datetime_utc, seconds since 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z)\nlatitude (degrees_north)\nlongitude (degrees_east)\nCTD_Salinity (unitless)\nCTD_Salinity_flag (unitless)\nBottle_Salinity (unitless)\nBot_Sal_flag (unitless)\nCTD_Pressure (decibars (db))\nTotal_Alkalinity_Single_Step_method (micromoles per kilogram of seawater (umol/kg_sw))\nTotal_Alkalinity_Single_Step_Method_flag (unitless)\nTotal_Alkalinity_Open_Cell_Method (micromoles per kilogram of seawater (umol/kg_sw))\nTotal_Alkalinity_Open_Cell_Method_Flag (unitless)\n...
