BIGSET-1 site (Northeast Atlantic)
BIGSET field studies were carried out in regions also investigated by JGOFS process studies in the Northeast Atlantic (BIOTRANS) and the Arabian Sea. Both study sites are characterised by
strong temporal variations in export fluxes from the upper mixed layer. BIOTRANS has been previously surveyed by the German
BIO-C-FLUX and BIOTRANS programmes (Pfannkuche 1993). BIOTRANS was one of the core stations of the
20°W-North Atlantic Bloom Study (Ducklow & Harris 1993). BENGAL was intensively studied be the European Union MAST III-Programme
BENGAL.
Looking closer at each of the areas (BENGAL / BIGSET / NABE / OMEX / PAP) it becomes obvious that these five sites are next
to each other. For this reason the data extraction from the PANGAEA information system has been done for the whole area 47°N to 52°N
and -18.83°W to -11.52°W .
To get an overview about the data available in the following section, please have a look at the map and the variable/parameter profiles (.pdf document).
In order to present properly the results Ocean Data View (Reiner Schlitzer, Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research) has been applied.
Data are available as tab-delimited .txt files in ASCII format. If you have comments on that, please let me know (Nicolas Dittert, WDC-MARE).
All ORFOIS related data with respect to BIGSET-1 are continuously updated.
Whenever you use data of the ORFOIS data compilation that refer to the BIGSET-1 data collection, please quote the citations of the
