Abstract:

Water column hydrographic data were collected during the 2015 Shelf Wide Survey led by LUMCON (Louisiana Universities Marine Consortium) scientists. The dataset includes coordinates, pressure (depth), temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, total dissolved inorganic carbon (concentration and stable isotope ratio) and titration alkalinity.

Purpose:

Examine the relationship between oxygen consumption and DIC production in bottom waters.
