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-a concentrations from Barbados incubation experiment, February 2012 (ADIMA project) (NCEI Accession 0277351) |
| Abstract: | This dataset contains biological data collected at lab Bellairs Research Institute during deployment ADIMA_Barbados in the Caribbean Sea from 2012-02-01 to 2012-02-29. These data include chlorophyll a. The instruments used to collect these data include Turner Designs 700 Laboratory Fluorometer. These data were collected by Adina Paytan of University of California-Santa Cruz as part of the "Atmospheric Deposition Impacts on Marine Ecosystems (ADIMA)" project. 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 a Concentrations in Seawater Dataset Description: Acquisition Description: Sampling and Analytical Methodology: Nutrient and aerosol addition bioassay experiments were carried out over 3 days in February 2012. Seawater was collected from offshore (water depth >700 m) outside the Bellairs Research Institute at West Barbados (13 o 11.309’N, 59 o 38.267’W). Surface water was pumped into acid cleaned sample rinsed carboys using a peristaltic pump with acid washed Teflon tubing and pre filtered through a 50 um mesh acid washed Nitex © net to remove grazers. The seawater was stored in the dark until transport to the lab (within 100 mL incubation seawater from each sample was filtered onto GFF filters and frozen in liquid nitrogen until analyzed. Upon return from the field samples were extracted for 24 hours in the dark at -20°C in 90% acetone. Fluorescence was measured on a TD-700 fluorometer (Turner Designs) calibrated with fresh chlorophyll standard from Anacystis nidulans (Sigma). |
