Abstract

CTD bottle data matched to dissolved, inorganic nutrient concentrations and to stable isotope measurements of particulate nitrogen and carbon.

Cite Dataset

Hydrographic data and water samples collected during casts with a CTD-rosette system (SBE911plus equipped with a fluorometer, transmissometer, oxygen sensor, and a PAR sensor)

Nutrient samples were run at sea using a Lachat QuickChem 8000 flow-injection analyzer equipped with the following methods:

Phosphate                    31-115-01-1-I
Silicate                                     31-114-27-1-B
Nitrate+Nitrite             31-107-04-1-A
Nitrite                          31-107-05-1-A

Particle (particulate N and C) samples for stable isotope (d15N, d13C) were collected and analyzed following methods in Montoya et al. 2002.
