Samples taken from Go-Flo bottles and analyzed with either Perstorp segmented flow nutrient analysis system and Labtronics data collection software or at the Marine Science Institute's Analytical Facility in Santa Barbara, CA. Water from Go-Flo bottles was emptied into a clean, rinsed bucket, sub-sampled directly from the bucket on board the zodiac and stored in rinsed brown Nalgene bottles in coolers for up to two hours until sampling was complete. Upon return to station, samples were transferred to four degrees centigrade for up to 48 hours until analysis. If analysis time was greater than 48 hours past collection, samples were frozen in either glass or plastic 20ml scintillation vials with teflon lids at -10 degrees centigrade until analysis. Samples were analyzed for silicate, phosphate, nitrite and nitrate+nitrite on a Perstorp segmented flow nutrient autoanalyzer. Samples from randomly chosen stations were frozen in 10ml vials with teflon lids for ammonium analysis. Water was sampled from a zodiac using Go-Flo bottles at the surface and at depths corresponding to the following percentages of the surface photosynthetically available radiation (PAR): 50 24, 14, 4 and 2. nutrients, silicate, phosphate, nitrate, nitrite, ammonium ASCII, comma separated /data/9596pal/nutrientsdi pal9596.nuts Maria Vernet Dr. Maria Vernet, Scripps Institution of Oceanography, San Diego, CA mvernet@ucsd.edu Wendy Kozlowski Karie Sines Jonah Rosenfield Cristine Moraes Andrew Greaves Karie Sines Cristine Moraes Karie Sines Cristine Moraes Maria Vernet Karie Sines Wendy Kozlowski Wendy Kozlowski 09/15/97 10/02/97 graphical preview -999 values represent missing data.
