The Ocean Archive System searches our original datasets as they were submitted to us, not individual points or profiles. If you want to search and retrieve ocean profiles in a common format, or objectively analyzed fields, your better option may be to use one of our project applications. See: Access Data

| Title: | Physical and chemical data collected in the Ross Sea, Antarctica from December 20, 2004 to November 30, 2005 fro Ross Sea Sulfur Dynamics study (NODC Accession 0117322) |
| Abstract: | This dataset contains transect data from two research cruises to the Ross Sea, Antarctica, aboard the RV Nathaniel B. Palmer (NBP) in December 2004 to January 2005 (NBP04-09) and in October to November 2005 (NBP05-08). Water samples were collected from the ship's underway pumping system in the aft laboratory, which has an intake at 4 m depth, and from CTD casts with Niskin bottle sampling (up to 737 m). Samples were analyzed for concentration and biological turnover rate of sulfur compounds, particularly dimethylsulfide (DMS) and dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP). Purpose: To improve our understanding of the biogeochemical dynamics of dimethylsulfide (DMS), dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP), and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) in the Ross Sea, Antarctica, and to evaluate the impact of ultraviolet radiation and dissolved nutrients on organosulfur cycling in these waters. |
