Collaborative Research: Impact of Solar Radiation and Nutrients on Biogeochemical Cycling of Dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) and Dimethylsulfide (DMS) in the Ross Sea, Antarctica (2004-2005)

Dataset extent

Map data © OpenStreetMap contributors

This dataset contains transect data from two research cruises to the Ross Sea, Antarctica, aboard the RV Nathaniel B. Palmer (NBP) in December 2004 to January 2005 (NBP04-09) and in October to November 2005 (NBP05-08). Water samples were collected from the ship's underway pumping system in the aft laboratory, which has an intake at 4 m depth, and from CTD casts with Niskin bottle sampling (up to 737 m). Samples were analyzed for concentration and biological turnover rate of sulfur compounds, particularly dimethylsulfide (DMS) and dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP).
