NODC Accession 0115199 includes profile, underway - surface, discrete sample, biological, physical and chemical data collected aboard the RANGE RECOVERER, THOMAS G. THOMPSON and WECOMA during cruises R0208, T0205, W0005A and W0008 in the North Pacific Ocean from 2000-05-30 to 2002-08-19. These data include Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), AMMONIUM, CHLOROPHYLL C, FLUORESCENCE, NITRATE, fucoxanthin, SALINITY, NITRITE, BACTERIA, CAROTENOIDS - PLANT, PHAEOPIGMENTS, Synechococcus, diatom, PHYTOPLANKTON, NITRATE + NITRITE CONTENT (CONCENTRATION), WATER TEMPERATURE, SILICATE, Diadinoxanthin, HPLC PIGMENTS, CHLOROPHYLL A, PHOSPHATE, Eukaryote, Violaxanthin, monadoxanthin, CHLOROPHYLL B and Alloxan (or alloxantin). The instruments used to collect these data include CTD, fluorometer, Optical Spectrometer, Fast Repetition Rate Fluorometer and Slowdrop optical profiler / CTD. These data were collected by Ricardo Letelier of Oregon State University as part of NEP. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NODC on 2013-10-30. The following is the text of the abstract provided by BCO-DMO: Phytoplankton, HPLC, flow cytometry, and nutrient data were collected by SLOWDROP optical profilers, underway, and CTD's. SLOWDROP optical profilers provided high resolution vertical profiles of temperature, salinity, and density along with bio-optical properties. The underway component focused on the assessment of the spatial and temporal variability in phytoplankton biomass and physiology. Discrete samples for chlorophyll fluorometric determinations, pigment analyis, partical absorption, and nutrients were collected by CTD cast.
