Abstract

Nutrients; silicate, nitrate plus nitrite, and phosphate from R/V Weatherbird II WB0409, WB0413, WB0506, WB0508 in the Sargasso Sea from 2004-2005.

Nutrients; silicate, nitrate plus nitrite, phospate
from Niskin bottle samples taken on all EDDIES WB cruises

 dates:           2004 - 2005
 location:        Sargasso Sea
 project/cruise:  EDDIES/WB0409 2004 Transect 1 (EDT1)
                  EDDIES/WB0413 2004 Transect 2 (EDT2)
                  EDDIES/WB0506 2005 Transect 1 (EDT3)
                  EDDIES/WB0508 2005 Transect 2 (EDT4)
 platform:        R/V Weatherbird II
 
 
 Methodology: analyses performed by Paul Henderson (phenderson@whoi.edu) at 
    WHOI Nutrients Facility; for sampling methodology, please refer to
    U.S. JGOFS BATS Method Manual Version 4 (1997).  Bermuda Atlantic 
    Time-Series Study April 1997. Anthony H. Knap, Anthony F. Michaels et al.,

    061211: downloaded original data from EDDIES data web site;
            EddiesBBSR05 (client) 2006_final.xls;
    070112: added to OCB database by Nancy Copley and Cyndy Chandler, OCB DMO
    071004: downloaded CruiseID_nuts_final.txt files from EDDIES data Web site 
            and prepared for OCB; ammonium data and EDT sample identification 
            codes were not reported with this version of the data
            
 OCB DMO note: match station number in cruise event log to determine
    sampling location, date and time; depth_n estimated from depth and added
    to enable merge with bottle data; these data are reported in umol/kg
    for which the conversion is roughly: N_umol/kg = N_umol/L / 1.025
 
 Analysis Note: files listing those data that are from the sample rerun:
    WB Silicate reruns
