treatment in the incubation experiment:
Control: Control bottles contained no nutrient additions

N: nitrogen addition (N, as 10 ?M NaNO3 + 0.5 ?M (NH4)2SO4)

P: phosphorus addition (P, as 0.5 ?M NaH2PO4)

N+P: N+P addition together

NW32: One of the aerosol treatments. 1 mg aerosol on the MW32 (collected 19 Nov 2010) filter was added per L of seawater. MW: northwestern (NW) back trajectories originating over mainland China

NW34: One of the aerosol treatments. 1 mg aerosol on the MW34 filter (collected 23 Nov 2010) was added per L of seawater. MW: northwestern (NW) back trajectories originating over mainland China

NW37: One of the aerosol treatments. 1 mg aerosol on the MW37 filter (collected 29 Nov 2010) was added per L of seawater. MW: northwestern (NW) back trajectories originating over mainland China

PO19: One of the aerosol treatments. 1 mg aerosol on the PO19 filter (collected 16 Aug 2010) was added per L of seawater. PO: back trajectories originating over the Pacific Ocean

PO24: One of the aerosol treatments. 1 mg aerosol on the PO24 filter (collected 26 Aug 2010) was added per L of seawater. PO: back trajectories originating over the Pacific Ocean

NW37 low: Similar to NW37, but only 0.2 mg aerosol was added per L of seawater

NW37 med: This is NW37, just added "med"

NW37 high: Similar to NW37, but 5 mg aerosol was added per L of seawater
