Data compilation of fluxes of sedimenting material from sediment traps in the Atlantic Ocean
We provide a data set assemblage of directly observed and derived fluxes of sedimenting material (total mass, POC, PON, bSiO 2 , CaCO 3 , PIC and lithogenic/terrigenous fluxes) obtained using sediment traps. This data assemblage contains over 5900 data points distributed across the Atlantic, from th...
