Short summary
The present study describes the surface distribution of the partial pressure of CO2 in the continental shelf of the eastern Gulf of Cádiz. For this, eight oceanographic cruises were carried out between March 2014 and February 2016. This distribution presents a linear dependence with the temperature and it decreases with distance from the coast. The Gulf of Cádiz shows a mean rate of −0.18 ± 1.32 mmol m-2 d-1, with an annual uptake capacity of CO2 of 4.1 Gg C year-1.
