Nitrogen fixation rates and primary production during summer monsoon 2018 in the Bay of Bengal (northeastern Indian Ocean) using 15N2 gas and 13CO3 tracer technique

The dataset compiles nitrogen fixation rates and primary production estimated using 15N2 gas and 13CO3 technique, respectively during the summer monsoon (12 July−2 August 2018) in the Bay of Bengal (northeastern Indian Ocean). The columns include Latitude, Longitude, Date/Time, Temperature, Salinity, σt (density), NO3 + NO2, PO4, SiO4, Average C uptake rates (primary production), and Average N2 fixation rates.
