Particulate Carbon and Nitrogen data from CTD casts from R/V Hugh R. Sharp HRS1610 in the Mid-Atlantic coastal waters from August 2016 (CyanateInTheSea project)

Particulate Carbon and Nitrogen (PNPC) data collected from CTD casts aboard the R/V Huge R. Sharp cruise to Mid-Atlantic coastal waters in August 2016.

Nitrogen uptake rates were calculated from 15N-isotope labeled incubation.

The parameters include PN, PC, and six N species uptake rates by whole water community at three depths: near surface, the depth above the Chl maximum (or near the bottom of the mixed layer), and the depth of the Chl maximum.
