Abstract

This dataset includes concentrations of atmospheric aerosol total mercury (Hg) from R/V Knorr cruises KN199-04 and KN204-01 (GA03) in the Subtropical northern Atlantic Ocean from 2010-2011 (U.S. GEOTRACES NAT project).

This dataset includes concentrations of atmospheric aerosol total mercury across the North Atlantic Zonal Transect.
