Description

Atmospheric aerosol samples collected during selected legs of the Repeat Hydrography CO2 cruises.
Samples recovered during these cruises have been analyzed for Fe and Al.
In addition, aerosol samples have been subjected to an ultrapure water leach to assess the fractional solubility of Fe and Al.

The U.S. CLIVAR DAC at CCHDO manages the data from the Repeat Hydrography sections. Most of the data sets from these cruises, referenced using the EXPOCODE as opposed to cruise ID, are available from the CCHDO:
