This dataset contains physical, chemical, and biological data collected during ten years of near-monthly shipboard surveys carried out in Mobile Bay between May 1989 and December 1999. Station locations ranged from the Mobile River delta to the mouth of Mobile Bay, from Bon Secour to the eastern part of Mississippi Sound, and outside Mobile Bay in the northern Gulf of Mexico. Hydrographic profiles and water samples were collected at each station.

The Conductivity, Temperature and Depth (CTD) and bathythermograph (XBT) data were collected in Gulf of Mexico as part of Texas Institutions Gulf Ecosystem Research (TIGER) and LATEX project funded by grant no MMS # 14-35-0001-30501. Data was collected from Ship GYRE. The data was collected over a period spanning from June 2, 1993 and June 24, 1993. Data was submitted by Mark Garner, Texas A&M University, College Station, TX. Data has been processed and is available in F022-CTD-Hi Resolution and C116 Bathythermograph file format of NODC. Objective of LATEX A was to observe currents and waves, water properties (such as temperature, salinity and nutrients), and air-sea interaction over the Texas- Louisiana shelf, with the aim of providing data adequate to describe and better understand the circulation and transport of water, nutrients and other properties over that shelf.

The Nansen bottle/ primary productivity/ pigment, sediment trap; and Conductivity, Temperature and Depth (CTD) data were collected in North Atlantic Ocean, NW Atlantic (limit-40 W) as part of Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS) project. Data was collected from Ships CAPE HATTERAS and WEATHERBIRD. The data was collected over a period spanning from October 20, 1988 and September 13, 1991. 13 files containing Sediment trap data (368 records); Primary Productivity Data (268 records); Bottle data (from 16 stations and 1,364 records); CTD data (95 stations and 52,635 records); and Pigment data (693 records) was submitted by Dr. Anthony H. Knapp, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Woods Hole, MA. Data has been processed and is available in F022-CTD-Hi Resolution file format of NODC. The Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS) is an international and multi- disciplinary study with a primary objective of understanding global oceanic carbon and nutrient cycles. The National Science Foundation has funded two time-series stations as part of JGOFS, one in Hawaii (HOTS) and a second in Bermuda, the Bermuda Atlantic Time-series study (BATS). BATS was funded under NSF Grant # OCE-8801089. This data set is comprised of BATS data primarily from Year 3, with additional data included from BATS years 1 and 2: 1) pigment data (chlorophylls a and b, peridinin, fucoxanthin, lutein, carotene, and others) collected during BATS Year 2 (These are the same data filed under NCEI Accession number 9200088.) 2) Nutrient data (total carbon dioxide, nitrate+nitrite, silicate, and phosphate in μmol/kg) collected as part of BATS Year 3 (Cruises 25 - 36, October 1990 - September 1991). CTD and particulate organic carbon and nitrogen (in μg/kg) and bacteria counts were also provided with these data. 3) Primary productivity data for BATS Years 1-3, Cruises 1-36. The trap array had MULTITRAPS at 150, 200, 300 and 400 meters. The array was allowed to drift for a 72-hour period (drift was considerable, up to 100 km). Total percentages of nitrogen, total organic carbon, and total carbon were utilized to calculate particulate flux in mg/m2/d. Data were collected in the immediate area of the nominal station location at 31 degrees 50'N, 64 degrees 10'W.
