Title: SEDIMENT PROPERTIES and Other Data from FIXED PLATFORM From NE Atlantic (limit-40 W) from 1989-04-03 to 1990-04-09 (NCEI Accession 9200155)
Abstract: The data in this accession contains files of Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS) North Atlantic Bloom Experiment Biogenic Sediment Trap Flux data collected by Dr. S. Honjo of Woods Hole. Data were collected from one mooring at 34N 21W with three traps arrayed at 1km and 2km from the surface and 0.7 km above the sea floor between April 1989 to April 1990. Samples were analyzed to determine concentrations of carbonate, biogenic opal; organic carbon, nitrogen, and hydrogen (from decalcified fraction) and phosphorus. An 80 character, 225 record documentation file is also filed under this reference number.

Supplementary information: Note: Metadata for this accession were extracted from a legacy database maintained by the U.S. National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC). The design of the database did not exactly reflect the FGDC Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM).

Principal Investigator (PI) and organization contact information accurately represents all available information from the legacy database at the time that this description was created. However, proper attribution of a PI to a specific institution or the role (submitting or collecting) taken by an institution may not be correct due to inexact mapping between fields in the legacy database and the CSDGM. Due to this uncertainty, the contact information was initially recorded in the Supplemental Information element of the CSDGM description.

To develop more accurate metadata, NCEI reviews metadata for all accessions on an ongoing basis.
