Methanol and methylamine oxidation rate measurements, geochemistry, and bacterial production in the northern Gulf of Mexico water column, May 2015 to August 2016

We investigated the microbial uptake of methanol and methylamine in the water column of northern Gulf of Mexico to elucidate the role of C1 compounds as microbial carbon and energy source. The dataset reports the geochemistry (e.g., nutrients, DOC), rates of bacterial production, radiotracer derived rates of methylamine and methanol assimilation and oxidation form different sites of Gulf of Mexico.
