Particle and zooplankton sample elemental (C,N) and isotopic (13C, 15N) data, cruise EN496, northern Gulf of Mexico, July 3-26, 2011

Particle and zooplankton samples were collected during cruise EN496 using a CTD-rosette and a MOCNESS aboard the R/V Endeavor. Our objectives were to collect samples in the Northern Gulf of Mexico in the vicinity of the Mississippi Plume as well as at/near active seeps. This cruise was funded by the Biological Oceanography Program at NSF but we were also able to carry out a variety of ECOGIG sampling activities. The ship departed Gulfport MS on 07/02/2011 and returned to Gulfport on 07/27/2011.
