Deployment: JPT_2002-16

2002-06-27 - 2002-07-28 NE Pacific, north of station P26 (Ocean Station Papa), on line P at 50Â°N 144Â°45E Platform:CCGS John P. Tully (vessel)

Description

CRUISE OBJECTIVE/OBJECTIVES:

Survey water properties along Line P, enrich a patch of ocean with iron near

Station Papa (50N, 145W) and observe biological changes for a period of 18 days.

Conduct a mesoscale iron enrichment experiment at a site to the NE of P26 (Ocean Station Papa).

The rationale for this experiment was to follow the changes in phytoplankton growth rate and

related biogeochemical properties of the iron-limited resident cells.
