Coastal water biogeochemistry collected aboard the R/V Endeavor along the North Atlantic coast from 2017-08-20 to 2017-08-28

Abstract

Samples were collected from four water column sites along the Northeast Coast of the United States in August 2017 aboard the R/V Endeavor. Samples were collected using a 12-bottle trace metal clean CTD (Conductivity, Temperature and Depth) rosette, and were kept clean by using acid washed tubing to collect water directly into acid-washed 1 L PTFE bottles. Sample depths were chosen based on the water column profile obtained from a separate 24-bottle CTD rosette system equipped with Seabird software, which also provided the temperature, dissolved oxygen, salinity, PAR, beam transmission and fluorescence profiles reported here.
