Abstract

Biogeochemical and microbial field surveys from the BATS site, Bermuda from R/V Atlantic Explorer cruises from 2009-2013. This dataset includes water samples collected from 2009-2013 at the Bermuda Hydrostation that were analyzed for DOC, POC, bacterial abundance, leucine, and thymidine incorporation.
