Deployment: AE1118

2011-07-22 - 2011-08-04 Sargasso Sea; Bermuda Atlantic Time-Series Station; 31 N 64 S Platform:R/V Atlantic Explorer (vessel)

Description

AE1118 was a process cruise aboard the R/V Atlantic Explorer to quantify stocks and rate processes in the Sargasso Sea food web. This was the second in a series of cruises for the Trophic BATS project.

On each cruise, sampling was conducted at three stations: the center and edge of a mesoscale eddy and at one station outside of the eddy. Core CTD casts to ~2000 meters and pre-dawn 'Productivity' CTD casts were made at each station.

Original cruise data are available from the NSF R2R data catalog.
