Description
Summary:Progress Code: completed Statement: High outlier values of sFe and DFe for S5 was found at station 4 and 5 when compared to the neighboring sections and to all top and intermediate layer (S1-S4) values. We suspect that possible contamination could have occurred during the melting process of the S5 sections on these days. Purpose This time series is useful to access processes that drive the temporal variability in the Fe distribution in the sea ice and underlaying seawater. This data describe a set of sea-ice and seawater physical and biochemical parameters obtained from seawater samples and ice cores drilled from land fast sea ice in the vicinity of Davis Station, East Antarctica at six different dates (stations 1-6) during late Spring 2016. Stations 1: 16 Nov. 2016 Stations 2: 21 Nov. 2016 Stations 3: 23 Nov. 2016 Stations 4: 26 Nov. 2016 Stations 5: 29 Nov. 2016 Stations 6: 02 Dec. 2016 Parameters measured: - Temperature, salinity; - Iron: Dissolved (less than 0.2um), soluble (less than 0.02um) colloidal (between 0.02 and 0.2um) and Particulate fractions (greater than 0.2um); - Macronutrients: Nitrate (NO3), nitrite (NO2), silicate (Si), phosfate (PO4) and ammonium (NH4); - Chlorophyll-a (Chla); - Particulate Organic Matter: Particulate Organic Carbon (POC) and Particulate Organic Nitrogen (PON) SW0: seawater collected at the surface SW3: seawater collected at 3m depth SW10: seawater collected at 10m depth
