Abstract

This dataset includes 32Si and 14C production data (experimental) from EXPORTS cruise RR1813. The EXPORTS field campaign in the subarctic North Pacific sampled an ecosystem characterized as high nutrient low chlorophyll (HNLC) due to low iron (Fe) levels that are primary controllers constraining phytoplankton utilization of other nutrients. It has been a paradigm in low Fe, HNLC systems that diatoms grow at elevated Si:C and Si:N ratios and should be efficiently exported as particles significant...

Depth profiles in the euphotic zone of nutrient (nitrate, silicate, phosphate) concentrations, profiles of silicic acid uptake rates and assessment of limitation by Si and Fe on both silicic acid uptake and carbon fixation.
