This dataset contains biological, laboratory analyses, physical, and profile data collected on OCEANUS in the North Atlantic Ocean and Sargasso Sea from 2004-06-12 to 2005-09-11. These data were collected by Dennis McGillicuddy and James R. Ledwell of Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution as part of the Eddies Dynamics, Mixing, Export, and Species composition (EDDIES) project(s). The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NODC on 2010-11-04.
