Abstract:

This dataset contains 28 images of multicores collected during the R/V Weatherbird cruise from May 19 to May 21 2012. The latitude, longitude and depth of cores is provided in a Word file. Three cores have delta13C, delta15N, and percent nitrogen and percent carbon reported for a depth of 0 – 1 centimeter. One core has these values reported for each centimeter of the core, from 1 to 10 centimeters. This dataset was submitted as Deep-C dataset R1.x138.078:0002.

Purpose:

To assess the influence of oil and gas on water column and sediment biogeochemical processes and the distribution of substances that affect biological productivity.

Data Parameters and Units:

latitude (decimal degrees), longitude (decimal degrees), depth (meters), Depth cm (part of core analyzed in centimeters), Delta13C (ratio of 13C to 12C), Delta15N (ratio of 14N to 15N), %C (total percent carbon), %N (total percent nitrogen)
