Concentrations of organic and inorganic bound nutrients and chlorophyll a in the Eurasian Basin, Arctic Ocean, early autumn 2012

The study is based on CTD and water sampling in the Eurasian Basin of the Arctic Ocean in August–September 2012. The research icebreaker Oden and a helicopter were platforms for the sampling. We here report data for inorganic and organic bound nutrient (NO 3 − , NO 2 − , NH 4 + , PO 4 3− , Si(OH) 4...

Description
Summary:The study is based on CTD and water sampling in the Eurasian Basin of the Arctic Ocean in August–September 2012. The research icebreaker Oden and a helicopter were platforms for the sampling. We here report data for inorganic and organic bound nutrient (NO 3 − , NO 2 − , NH 4 + , PO 4 3− , Si(OH) 4 , DON, DOP) concentrations and chlorophyll a between 10 m and 200 m at 29 stations and down to about 4500 m at 13 stations. The data set also includes below sea ice samples (1-2 m) sampling at 31 stations. A total number of 15 different water masses were identified, and their N:P relationship showed that 13 of these clearly originated from the Atlantic Ocean.
