The coastal Ocean Data Analysis Product in North America (CODAP-NA) Version 2026 represents a major expansion of coastal ocean carbonate chemistry synthesis for North American continental margins. Compared to CODAP-NA Version 2021 (61 cruises, 3,391 profiles, and 28,206 data rows), the updated product integrates newly available cruise observations spanning more than four decades, substantially increasing both the spatial and temporal coverage of coastal biogeochemical measurements across all North American continental shelves. This version of the CODAP-NA is composed of 32,250 oceanographic profiles from 446 research cruises covering all continental shelves in North America (U.S. west coast, U.S. east coast, Gulf of Mexico, and Alaska coast). Data for 14 variables (temperature; salinity; dissolved oxygen concentration; dissolved inorganic carbon concentration; total alkalinity; pH on the Total Scale; carbonate ion concentration; fugacity of carbon dioxide; and concentrations of silicate, phosphate, nitrate, nitrite, nitrate plus nitrite, and ammonium) have been subjected to extensive quality control. Funding for this work comes from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Ocean Acidification Program.
