Six enrichment experiments were conducted on three cruises to the Southern Ocean during the US JGOFS program. One of these cruises was in the Ross Sea during the austral summer (Ross Sea Process 2 cruise aboard R/V Nathaniel B. Palmer cruise 97-1; PII-3 and PII-4). The other two cruises were conducted in waters immediately north and south of the Antarctic Polar Front Zone (APFZ) Survey 1 KIWI6 cruise (in austral fall) and Survey 2 KIWI8 cruise (in austral spring) aboard R/V Roger Revelle.

Results from Fe enrichment, DOC and TOC incubation experiments and Pico- and Nanoplankton biomass incubation experiments are summarized in tables and an Excel file.
