Synthesis of in situ marine calcium carbonate dissolution kinetic measurements in the water column - Data Version 4

In this data set, we compiled all published measurements of calcium carbonate CaCO3 dissolution rates in the water column (11 studies, 752 data points). So far, published studies have not been utilised as a whole because they have not previously been compiled and harmonised into one dataset and lacked relevant ancillary variables. We add hydrographic variables (such as temperature, salinity, and carbonate system parameters) by combining World Ocean Atlas data with the neural network CANYON-B, ultimately estimating the saturation state (Ω), which for the first time allows the comparison of measured dissolution rates between the different in situ studies.
