Title: Biogeochemical and microbiological variables measured by CTD and Niskin bottles from the Hermano Gines in the Caribbean Sea for the CARIACO Ocean Time-Series Program from 1995-11-13 to 2015-11-14 (NCEI Accession 0164194)
Abstract: The goal of this project was to examine the interrelationship between microbial activity and water column geochemistry in the world’s largest, truly marine anoxic system, the Cariaco Basin. This project focused on microbial cycling of carbon, sulfur, and nitrogen occurring at depths where waters transition from oxic to anoxic to sulfidic. Over the 21 year program, the Stony Brook team typically staged cruises semi-annually during upwelling (Mar-May) and non- upwelling (Oct-Nov) periods. These 24-hour cruises were usually within a week of the routine monthly cruises staged by the Fundacion La Salle and University of South Florida team. Most cruises occupied only the CARIACO Ocean Time-Series station. On cruises 108 to 132, additional stations in the western basin and on the sill to the north of the Cariaco station were also sampled. Locations are given in the database. Data provided in a single MS Excel spreadsheet.
