The Ocean Archive System searches our original datasets as they were submitted to us, not individual points or profiles. If you want to search and retrieve ocean profiles in a common format, or objectively analyzed fields, your better option may be to use one of our project applications. See: Access Data

| Title: | Chlorophyll data from bottles, buckets, and ice from RVIB Nathaniel B. Palmer cruises NBP0103, NBP0104, NBP0202, and NBP0204 in the Southern Ocean from 2001-2002 (SOGLOBEC project) (NCEI Accession 0112394) |
| Abstract: | This dataset contains biological data collected on RVIB Nathaniel B. Palmer during cruises NBP0103, NBP0104, NBP0202, and NBP0204 in the South Atlantic Ocean, South Pacific Ocean, and Southern Ocean from 2001-01-01 to 2002-12-31. These data include chlorophyll a, depth, and total phaeopigment. The instruments used to collect these data include Turner Designs Fluorometer -10-AU. These data were collected by Dr Maria Vernet of University of California-San Diego as part of the "U.S. GLOBEC Southern Ocean (SOGLOBEC)" project and "U.S. GLOBal ocean ECosystems dynamics (U.S. GLOBEC)" program. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2023-01-23. The following is the text of the dataset description provided by BCO-DMO: Chlorophyll data from bottles, buckets and ice Dataset Description: Chlorophyll a and Phaeo Pigments from Bottle Casts and Ice / Ice Cores A short note on the "Southern Ocean Grid System": The grid is a Cartesian plane covering the sample region in which distances are easy to calculate. The grid system used for SOGLOBEC is a universal transverse mercator (UTM) projection with a certain base point and rotation. The base point was chosen in the far south and the rotation was chosen to create one axis along the peninsula, and the other offshore. The units of UTM are meters, but the points are chosen in km rounded to the nearest km. Negative numbers mean that samples were taken southwest of the y axis or southeast of the x axis. For more details see: METHODS: Chlorophylls were dissolved in 90% acetone and measured using a Turner Designs Digital 10-AU-05 Fluorometer. The instrument was calibrated using chlorophyll a standards from Sigma Chemicals as noted below. Calibration Notes: NBP0103 Calibrated at start of cruise using Sigma Chemicals chl_a standard. Calibration values used were as follows: High Fd: 0.109 High tau: 1.970 Med Fd: 0.111 Med tau: 1.950 Low Fd: 0.109 Low tau: 2.215 Calibration Notes: NBP0104 Calibrated at start of cruise using Sigma Chemicals chl_a standard. Calibration values used were as follows: High Fd: 0.090 High tau: 1.982 Med Fd: 0.092 Med tau: 1.981 Low Fd: 0.100 Low tau: 2.215 Calibration Notes: NBP0202 Calibrated at start of cruise using Sigma Chemicals chl_a standard. Calibration values used were as follows: High Fd: 0.109 High tau: 1.954 Med Fd: 0.103 Med tau: 1.949 Low Fd: 0.100 Low tau: 1.954 Calibration Notes: NBP0204 Calibrated at start of cruise using Sigma Chemicals chl_a standard. Calibration values used were as follows: High Fd: 0.149 High tau: 1.887 Med Fd: 0.141 Med tau: 1.968 Low Fd: 0.149 Low tau: 1.938 Data submitted by: Maria Vernet Scripps Institute of Oceanography University of California, San Diego La Jolla, California 92093-0218 Phone: 1-858-534-5322 email: Last update: November 30, 2005; gfh |
