Abstract

Carbon, biogenic Silica, and mass fluxes from the Neutrally Buoyant Sediment Trap (NBST) deployments in the North Pacific on R/V Falkor FK170124 in Jan-Feb 2017

This dataset includes measurement from deployments of the Neutrally Buoyant Sediment Trap (NBST) in the North Pacific during R/V Falkor FK170124 in January and February 2017 as part of the Sea to Space Particle Investigation project (see https://schmidtocean.org/cruise/sea-space-particle-investigation/).
