Abstract
The dataset contains sediment trap data collected from the R/V Roger Revelle during cruise RR2201 in the Eastern Indian Ocean (Argo Basin) from February 2022. The data, part of the BLOOFINZ-IO project, includes measurements of particulate organic carbon, nitrogen flux, carbon and nitrogen isotopes, chlorophyll a, and phaeopigment flux. The sediment traps were deployed using VERTEX-style surface-tethered systems, with samples processed for isotope analysis and other biochemical analyses. For a complete list of measurements, refer to the full dataset description in the supplemental file 'Dataset_description.pdf'. The most current version of this dataset is available at: https://www.bco-dmo.org/dataset/944902
