 Description:

These downloadable excel format tables contain fluxes for individual lipid compounds from Hedges-Lee-Wakeham IRS-C sediment traps deployed at mooring sites MS-1, MS-3 and MS-4 in the Arabian Sea.

Carousel numbers correspond to time intervals listed with the total lipid fluxes and for the two sediment trap deployment periods (November 1994 - May 1995; May 1995 - December 1995).

Compounds 14ROH - 37:2 are neutral lipids and 12:0 - homopohanoic acid are acids. Details of analytical methodology and compound abbreviations may be obtained from the primary PI (Wakeham).
