browse graphicPreview graphic
This dataset contains biological data collected on R/V Albatross IV, R/V Endeavor, and R/V Oceanus during cruises AL9505, AL9506, AL9508, AL9605, AL9607, EN261, EN263, EN265, EN276, EN278, EN282, and OC275 in the North Atlantic Ocean from 1995-05-09 to 1996-03-18. These data include chlorophyll a and depth. The instruments used to collect these data include Niskin bottle. These data were collected by Dr David Mountain and Ms Maureen Taylor of National Marine Fisheries Service as part of the "U.S. GLOBEC Georges Bank (GB)" project and "U.S. GLOBal ocean ECosystems dynamics (U.S. GLOBEC)" program. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2023-01-23.

Supplemental Information
PI Notes:
The 1995 and 1996 bottle data were collected with a GO rosette mounted above the MK5 CTD. Water for chlorophyll extractions was taken at priority 1 and 2 stations and at 3 "standard" depths (according to a protocal set up by Ted Durbin and Dian Gifford at the University of Rhode Island). For each bottle, 3 replicate samples were run for consistency. 50 mls were filtered for 3 size fractions: total chlorophyll, chlorophyll from water filtered through a <20 micron mesh and chlorophyll from water filtered through a <5 micron mesh. This means that for any one station, there were 27 test tubes: 3 depths, 3 replicates, 3 size fractions. The samples were usually read at sea (after the 24 hour acetone extraction). If not, Ted Durbin"s Lab read them when the ship returned.

The companion object for this data is chloro_bot_chem, which details salinity, temperature, fluorometry and tranmissometry collected from the same bottles.
