Title: Nutrients, microbiology, trace metals, and environmental conditions from seeded microcosm experiments from 2014-07-22 to 2015-05-09 (NCEI Accession 0278304)
Abstract: This dataset contains biological, chemical, and physical data collected at Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary during deployment Lipp_2014-16 from 2014-07-22 to 2015-05-09. These data include Ammonium, Dissolved Organic Nitrogen, Fe, Nitrate, Nitrite, Silicate, chlorophyll a, dissolved organic Carbon, and reactive phosphorus (PO4). The instruments used to collect these data include Gas Analyzer and plate reader. These data were collected by William M. Landing of Florida State University, Michael Wetz of Texas A&M University, and Elizabeth Ottesen and Erin K. Lipp of University of Georgia as part of the "Vibrio as a model microbe for opportunistic heterotrophic response to Saharan dust deposition events in marine waters (Vibrio-dust deposition)" project. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2020-06-03.

Nutrients from seeded microcosm experiments

Dataset Description:
This dataset includes nutrients from 2014 and 2015 experiments using Saharan source material and water from the lower Florida Keys to create microcosms for natural seawater communities. For full details, see Westrich et al (2016) PNAS, https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.1518080113 .

Supplementary information: Acquisition Description:
Samples were collected offshore from Alligator Reef (2014) and Looe Key Reef (2015). The experimental treatments included additions of dust and iron in 2014 with a control of acidified water. In 2015, treatments included additions of dust from Barbados, iron, nitrates, phosphates, and carbon with controls of acidified water and leachate.

Nutrients data went through internal lab QAQC process. BDL means below detection limit. The method detection limit (MDL) was determined using 9 samples on two different runs and correct student-T value.
