Abstract

This dataset is an inventory of carbonate chemistry bottle samples collected by HOV/Alvin on the RV/Atlantis cruise AT/37-13 during May and June 2017 at the Costa Rica Margin (sites Mound 12, Quepos landslide, Jaco Scar), Pacific Ocean.

Carbonates and other hard substrates were collected by Alvin using the manipulator arm. Carbonates were subsampled for microscopy, molecular analysis, mineralogy and incubation experiments (details of sampling can be found in Case et al., 2015 mBio. 6:6
