Specific activities of dissolved radon-222 collected from underway samples during STING II cruise EN704 on R/V Endeavor in the Gulf of Mexico in Jul 2023

This dataset includes the specific activities of dissolved radon-222 collected from underway samples during STING II cruise EN704 on R/V Endeavor in the Gulf of Mexico from July 5th to July 12th, 2023. Additional data collected from grab samples during STING I and STING II are provided in the related dataset.

This project investigates how boundary sources, including rivers and submarine groundwater discharge, deliver important nutrients and metals to the coastal ecosystems of the West Florida Shelf. Here, dissolved radon-222 has been measured to trace boundary sources of nutrients and metals entering the West Florida Shelf, including submarine groundwater discharge.
