Abstract

Bottle samples were collected during R/V Knorr cruise KN193-03 and R/V Bjarni Saemundsson cruises B10-2008 and B4-2008 to the subpolar North Atlantic, Iceland Basin in 2008. Primary productivity and photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) measurements were generated from on-deck C-14 bottle incubations. Chlorophyll a measurements were generated from a fluorometric analysis of acetone extract.

These primary productivity data were published in Briggs et al., 2018.

Results papers for related research utilizing data from the NAB08 project Seaglider, CTD, biofloat, and bottle data are listed in the "Related Publications" section.
