Dataset abstract Biogenic Silicate (Bsi) concentration (µmol/L) in seawater data. Water samples were collected from CTD rosette deployments, filtered on board and then analysed by flow injection following appropriate digestion. This data supports chemical and biological oceanography studies conducted during the Antarctic Circumnavigation Expedition.
