These data are all of the input variables and the relevant output variables of bulk flux calculations done on ship observations using the 2023 version of the Bourassa flux algorithm. When redundant instruments exist, the sensors used for calculations are chosen based on the amount of good data available, determined on a per day basis, using an updated method of the one described in Smith, S. R., N. Lopez, and M. A. Bourassa, 2016: SAMOS air-sea fluxes: 2005-2014. Geoscience Data Journal, 3, 9-19, https://doi.org/10.1002/gdj3.34.
