SBC LTER: OCEAN: Sediment porewater ammonium and urea concentrations

This data set present the results of efforts to characterize the
concentrations of ammonium and (selectively) urea in pore waters of
permeable, sandy sediments on the inner continental shelf of the Santa
Barbara Channel, including those adjacent to major kelp beds. Samples
sites included Arroyo Burro, Mission Creek, Refugio and Mohawk. A
second data file include depth profiles of ammonium and urea
concentrations in the water column above each sediment sampling site,
which were used to discern the strength of the vertical gradients of
ammonium and urea concentrations between the surficial sediments and
the water column.
