A component of U.S. Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS) is the
Arabian Sea Process Study. Eleven cruises took place aboard the R/V
Thomas G. Thompson for about sixteen months from October 1994 until
January 1996. These cruises provided seasonal coverage of the annual
monsoon and inter-monsoon cycles in the area southeast of Oman - from
where the cruises were staged. The monsoons of the Arabian Sea drive
a uniquely intense carbon cycling system, and it is the goal of JGOFS
to better understand the role of the oceans in global carbon cycling.
Chlorophyll-a was measured by fluorometric method. Primary
production and carbon assimilation per unit chlorophyll-a are given
for 12 hour (dawn to dusk) and 24 hour (dawn to dawn) periods at
several depths in the euphotic zone.
In addition, euphotic zone depth (depth at which light is 1 percent of
surface incident radiation) and diffuse attenuation coefficient are
given for various stations.
The data is public domain and can be retrieved on-line at
