pigments

 PI:              Dan Repeta
 of:              Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution
 dataset:         Pigment concentrations, water bottle casts
 project/cruise:  NABE/198
 ship:            R/V Endeavor
  
 Sampling Methodology


 DMO NOTE:  This dataset was submitted without the supporting 
 geographic and data/time parameters.  The Endeavor 198 cruise focused 
 on two NABE sites: 59.5N 20.9W and 62.6N 24.1W (see event log).  The 
 DMO is reluctant to assign positional information to this dataset.  
 Therefore, these data are presented here for use by the science
 community, at their discretion, with the knowledge that this deficiency
 exists.  It should also be understood that the sta_name parameter reported
 with this data is not the same as station number.  The station numbers 
 on this cruise ranged from 2 through 9 whereas the sta_name values range 
 from 3 through 12.
