    The main objetive of PLOCAN1304 cruise is twofold. On the one hand implement PLOCAN testing bank area, located in NE coast of Gran Canaria island, and on the other hand, doing seasonal sampling of ESTOC (Estacion de Series Temporales Oceánias de Canarias), which represents PLOCAN node oceanic observatory, located 60 nautical miles north of Gran Canaria island.

    The main objectives for the MedSeA cruise are to: - Refine climatological maps of carbonate species distribution (pH, pCO2, CO32-, CT, AT, CaCO3 saturation states), along with their isotopic signatures, in the Mediterranean Sea. - Report on the determination of the anthropogenic carbon distribution throughout the whole Mediterranean Sea and its associated uncertainty estimate - Determine the effects of carbonate chemistry on Mediterranean calcifying and non-calcifying planktonic organisms. - Determine synergistic effects of acidification, warming and nutrients on key pelagic organisms. - Identify and quantify responses of fundamental Mediterranean biogeochemical processes to acidification and warming. - MedSeA is carried out in collaboration with the Geotraces program in order to collect water for chemical large volume trace elements and isotopes such as Th/Pa, Artificial radionuclides, Th-234, Nd-isotopes and Ra.
