    • Turbidity, SOLAR RADIATION - ATMOSPHERIC and other data from GYRE in the North Atlantic Ocean from 1977-02-10 to 1977-03-07 (NCEI Accession 7800459)

    Metadata Updated: March 1, 2025

    This dataset contains the results from the Outer Continental Shelf Study (OCS) Benchmark Study in the North Atlantic which ran from February 10 to March 7, 1977 from R/V GYRE. These ocean station data were submitted by Energy Resources Co., Inc. in fulfillment of BLM contract # AA550-CT6-51.

    This data contains eleven files with different file types and therefore different reference numbers. The following is a description of the files and a listing of the reference numbers: file 1 labeled L00998, L130 contains nutrient, temp, salinity and do data; file 2 labeled L00965, L513 contains %silt, %clay, %grain size, %carbon and %nitrogen in sediments data; files 3 and 4 labeled L00963, L521 contains taxonomic code, counts and egg/larvae data; file 5 labeled L00966, L134 contains metals in zooplankton, water, sediment and macrobenthos data; file 6 labeled L00967, L131 contains lipids, hydrocarbons in water, zooplankton, macrobenthos, sediment and surface film data; file 7,8,9 labeled L00968 contain macrobenthic taxonomic codes and counts.
