Abstract

Biogeochemistry and microbiology measurements in the Cariaco Basin. Microbiology sampling were conducted during special CARIACO cruises (distinct from the monthly, core sampling, time-series cruises) from November 1995 to November 2015. The specialized microbiology cruises were usually during May and November, and could be opportunistic or process-driven. There were typically at least 2 cruises per year, during which different variables were sampled and at different depths from the standard mont...

Biogeochemistry and microbiology measurements in the Cariaco Basin. Microbiology sampling is conducted during special CARIACO cruises (distinct from the monthly, core sampling, time-series cruises). The specialized microbiology cruises are usually during May and November, and can be opportunistic or process-driven. There are typically at least 2 cruises per year, during which different variables are sampled and at different depths from the standard monthly CARIACO cruises. Bacteria production data are also reported for the microbiology cruises.
