Description
Dataset abstract
This dataset contains dissolved inorganic nitrate, nitrite, silicate and phosphate concentrations of seawater sampled during the Antarctic Circumnavigation Expedition (ACE) Legs 1-3. Water samples were collected from the underway seawater supply every 3 hours, preserved and analysed for dissolved inorganic nutrient concentrations using flow injection and colorimetric methods. These samples provide an estimate of the dissolved concentrations of inorganic macronutrients essential for phytoplankton growth.
