Abstract

These data include total-dissolvable iron concentrations in rainwater and corresponding rainfall amounts for composite samples collected during approximately weekly intervals on the sampling tower at Tudor Hill, Bermuda, between November 2018 and March 2020. The data allow estimates of the wet deposition of iron to the Bermuda region over the period of the BAIT project, which included cruises in the Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Study (BATS) region in March, May, August and November 2019. The rai...
