Deployment-specific acquisition description

   PI:              James J. McCarthy
   of:              Harvard University
   dataset:         N-15 uptake rates, profile data, for substrates of NO2, NO3, NH4
   dates:           October 30, 1995 to November 23, 1995
   location:        N: 23.9123  S: 10.0848  W: 56.4858  E: 67.1666
   project/cruise:  Arabian Sea/TTN-053 - Process Cruise 6 (bio-optics)
   ship:            Thomas Thompson
 
   Note from PI dated 6/30/97:
   Profile uptake rates contain computational corrections
   in several places (June 1997).
 
   Documentation Revised 09/10/1999:
 
   Methodology:  McCarthy, J.J., C. Garside, and J.L. Nevins. (1999) Nitrogen
   Dynamics during the Arabian Sea Northeast Monsoon. Deep-Sea
   Research II 46 (1999) 1623-1664.
 
   Due to the strong diel patterns in nitrogen uptake and the resulting
   possible misinterpretation of these profile data through simple integration
   and daily mulitpliers, the user community is directed to the areal summary
   data also reported for this cruise.
