Dataset description

SOIREE DIC Tap Data
DICrun1 and DICrun2: DIC values using a running mean over the
Dickson values for the actual (3x), preceding (1x) and succeeding cell
(1x). The DIC values using the running mean for the Dickson values
have a better reproducibility for duplicate samples than, if we use the
Dickson value for each cell.

Replicate DIC samples from the online water supply
The absolute average difference between duplicate samples
from the online water supply
mean = 2.3 umol/kg, stdev = 1.8 umol/kg, number = 44.
