Inorganic and organic particulate carbon, BGSi and transmissometer data collected during the SIPEX II voyage of the Aurora Australis, 2012

This dataset contains Ffilter samples of known volume of sea water for

  • PIC (Particulate Inorganic Carbon)
  • POC (Particulate Organic Carbon)
  • BGSi (BioGenic Silicon)

The dataset also contains transmissometer data.

The transmissometer is an attempt at developing a correlation between the PIC filter samples and the transmissometer readings. This is development of methods.

The data collection times are logged in the file and filter log sheets.
