Abstract

Particulate organic matter and isotope data from R/V Nancy Foster cruises NF1704 and NF1802 in the Gulf of Mexico in May of 2017 and 2018.

In addition to the funding sources listed in the "Funding Source" section, this dataset was partially funded by:

National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's RESTORE Program Grant (Project Title: Effects of nitrogen sources and plankton food-web dynamics on habitat quality for the larvae of Atlantic bluefin tuna in the Gulf of Mexico) under federal funding opportunity NOAA-NOS-NCCOS-2017-2004875, including NOAA JIMAR Cooperative Agreement, award #NA16NMF4320058, NOAA CIMAS Cooperative Agreement, award #NA15OAR4320064, and NOAA CIMEAS Cooperative Agreement, award #NA15OAR4320071.
