Abstract

This dataset includes pico- and nanoplankton concentrations from CTD cast deployments collected from the R/V Endeavor (EN532, EN538) cruises in the subarctic Atlantic Ocean from 2013-2014.

Cite Dataset

This dataset includes pico- and nanoplankton cell concentrations from CTD casts made during the August-September 2013 EN532 and April-May 2014 EN358 cruises aboard R/V Endeavor. Study sites were located in the subarctic Atlantic Ocean along the 20 °W meridian between 50 °N and 60 °N in September 2013 and May 2014. Two transects from the US East coast to the subarctic study sites were performed as well.

See the "Related Datasets" section for several related BCO-DMO datasets from the same cruises.
