Description
Summary:This data set contains measurements at each station of benthic parameters, including bottom water parameters (temperature, salinity, and oxygen, delta 18O), benthic chlorophyll-a values (bottom water chlorophyll-a, integrated water column chlorophyll-a, sediment chlorophyll-a), benthic faunal parameters (abundance, biomass (g/m2), biomass (gC/m2), number of taxa), sediment grain size values, Total organic carbon (TOC), TON, C/N, and sediment oxygen uptake rates. Samples included in this dataset were collected from May 11 - June 6, 2002, and July 19 - August 21, 2002 from the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter (USCGC) Healy (WAGB-20). These data are in ASCII format.
