Abstract

In situ primary productivity based on 14C assimilation and nutrients from samples collected by many research projects and on numerous cruises globally, 1985-2008.

Cite Dataset

From the project's Statement of Work:
The objective of this project is to synthesize over three decades of data collected on primary production in the ocean. The collected data uses a consistent methodology for primary production, using the uptake of inorganic 14C through photosynthesis, in incubations carried out in situ.

The primary support for this dataset was the National Aeronautic and Space Administration grant NNX14AM15G (P.I.: Z.-P. Lee).
