NODC Standard Format Primary Productivity 2 (F049) Data (1973-1982) (NCEI Accession 0014161)

This dataset contains data from measurements of photosynthetic capacity and phytoplankton productivity. In addition to cruise information, position, date, time, sampling depths, bottom depth, and general environmental information, this dataset may contain measured parameters including: concentrations of chlorophylls A, B, C, plant carotenoids, and phaeopigments; concentrations of oxygen, particulate organic carbon, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, silicate, and urea; temperature, salinity, and total alkalinity; and light penetration and light intensity. Values of photosynthetic capacity and primary productivity may be reported as total values or partial values for phytoplankton, net plankton, nanoplankton, and dissolved organic matter.
