Concentration of suspended chlorophyll a and particulate organic carbon (POC) and particulate organic nitrogen (PON) at 6 water depths at station Svartnes (69.36 N, 19.12 E), Balsfjord, Norway in June 2017 and June 2018, project MICROSNOW

During the project Microsnow, field sampling was conducted at station Svartnes, Balsfjorden, Norway in June 2017 and June 2018.
As background data, the concentration of
i) chlorophyll a (Chl a) total (> 0.7 micrometer) (unit mg m^-3),
ii) chlorophyll a (Chl a) > 10 micrometer (unit mg m^-3),
iii) particulate organic carbon (POC) (>0.7 micrometer) (unit mg m^-3),
iv) particulate organic nitrogen (PON) (>0.7 micrometer) (unit mg m^-3), and
v) the atomic ratio of PON:PON.
was determined in the water column at 0, 10, 20, 50, 90, 120 m depth (sampling with a 30 L GoFlow bottle).

These data are made available in four different files (one file per sampling):
Water_Sampling20170619 - sampling on 19 June 2017, 13:30 (UTC),
Water_Sampling20170621 - sampling on 21 June 2017, 17:30 (UTC),
Water_Sampling20180611 - sampling on 11 June 2018, 18:00 (UTC),
Water_Sampling20180613 - sampling on 13 June 2018, 09:00 (UTC).

In addition to these files, there are more data available from the same field campaigns:
