Dissolved trace metals and macronutrients from samples collected using a tow-fish system on R/V Melville MV1405 (IRN-BRU) cruise in the California Current System in July 2014

This dataset is a suite of dissolved trace metal concentrations, along with macronutrient concentrations collected using a trace-metal clean towed-fish system on R/V Melville cruise MV1405 (IRN-BRU) while investigating the mosaic of the California Current System in July 2014. This dataset includes samples from transects 2, 5, 8, and 9. Transect 2 started at station 2 (an active upwelling site nearshore over the shelf in northern California; see related datasets) and followed the upwelled plume offshore. Transect 5 went through the eddy stations (stations 9, 12, and 15; see related datasets). Transects 8 and 9 went through the plume measured in station 28 (a more aged upwelling site offshore of the shelf break in southern Oregon; see related datasets). The chief scientist of the cruise was Ken Bruland. Trace metal samples were analyzed by Claire Till (nee Parker) as his graduate student. Nutrient samples were analyzed by Tyler Coale.
