Sediment trap flux data from two traps deployed from R/V MIRAI at the F1 mooring site offshore from the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant (FNPP), in the western North Pacific from 2011-2012 (Fukushima Sediment Radionuclides project)		McLane PARFLUX Mark 8
Sediment trap data from Deep Water Horizon measured from R/V Cape Hatteras cruise CH0710 and the RR1 M2 VK02 Mooring at the Gulf of Mexico, Visoca Knoll site VK826 in 2010 (GoMX Sed Trap project)		McLane PARFLUX Mk 8
Mass flux and concentrations of bulk components (Carbonate, Organic Carbon/Nitrogen, Lithogenics, Opal) and elements in the flux at 500m, 1500m and 3200m depths from the OFP sediment trap time-series in the northern Sargasso Sea
Primary particle flux data (500, 1500, and 3200m depths) of the OFP sediment trap time-series in the northern Sargasso Sea from 1978-2020	In 1989, the 1.54m2 traps were replaced by the newly introduced 0.5m2 Parflux conical sediment traps (McLane Labs, Falmouth MA) having a rotating carousel to allow for multiple samples to be collected during a single deployment. The introduction of the Parflux trap (PARFLUX Mark 7G-13, Mark 7G-21 and currently Mark 78G-21) enabled the sampling period to be reduced from a nominal two month duration to a nominal two week duration.
