The observations of total dissolved CO2 (TCO2) in surface water on the range from 115°E to 165°E, from 10°S to 20°N from Dec.1986 to Jun.1990, present following results:There was distinguished difference of distribution of TCO2 between during El Nino and La Nina, especially on east of 155°E and equator.During El Nino TCO2 was the lowest (TCO2, 1 900 pmol/kg) in seven cruises and proportional to salinity, the dominant effect of current was from North Equatorial Current (NEC).During La Nina the value of TCO2 became the highest (CO2 >1 900 μmol/kg) in range of Equatorial Upwelling, the dominant effect was from South Equatorial Current.The effect of air-sea exchange and biological activity increased.
