Size of sinking aggregates of a Sargasso Sea Plankton community from roller tank experiments with seawater collected during R/V Atlantic Explorer cruises AE1718 and AE1808 in 2017 and 2018 (NCEI Accession 0291608)
This dataset contains data collected on R/V Atlantic Explorer during cruises AE1718 and AE1808 in the North Atlantic Ocean from 2017-09-17 to 2018-03-21. These data include depth. The instruments used to collect these data include Microscope-Optical. These data were collected by Susanne Neuer of Arizona State University as part of the "Aggregation of Marine Picoplankton (Marine Plankton Aggregation)" project. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2019-12-24.

Supplemental Information | Acquisition Description: Sargasso Seawater was incubated in 1.25 L roller tanks for 5 days in the dark at 3.5 RPM (for further details on roller tanks, see Shanks and Edmondson, 1989). Aggregation was tested with and without the addition of kaolinite clay. All treatments had n = 2 tanks. Aggregates formed were quantified, sized, and their sinking velocities and excess densities determined. TEP concentrations were determined as in Passow and Alldredge (1995). The stock of Alcian-Blue dye used for TEP quantification had a calibration factor (f-factor) of 84.15. Aggregation was tested with and without the addition of kaolinite clay (control, 0.5 mg per L of kaolinite clay, 5.0 mg per L of kaolinite clay) |
