COUNTRY : Canada PROJECT : Station P SCIENTIST : Gantzer K.A. PLATFORM : Vancouver *LOCATION GEOGRAPHIC AREA : NE PACIFIC STATION : 9 EVENT NUMBER : 1 LATITUDE : 49 26.00000 N ! (deg min) LONGITUDE : 136 40.00000 W ! (deg min) *INSTRUMENT TYPE : Bottle MODEL : Nansen 1-Litre *COMMENTS The data was obtained from data report in reference 1., page 25. STD was a Bissett-Berman Model 9006. Additional comments from John Page's files: Contents: Cast data from Weathership program using ships Vancouver & Quadra from Vancouver Island, BC, Canada to Ocean Weather Station P [50N x 145W] Data incl SWT,SAL,O2, NO3 Sample collection methods: Sea Water Temp - reversing thermometers mounted on Nansen samplers Salinity - Collected in Nansen samplers Dissolved Oxygen - Collected in Nansen samplers Reactive Nutrients (Phosphate, nitrate, silicate) - Collected in Van Dorn samplers(productivity casts) or Nansen bottles (hydrographic casts). Surface nutrients were collected via a seawater loop line. Sample analysis methods: Sea Water Temp - Shipboard reading of reversing thermometers Salinity - Salinity determination were made at sea and ashore on Cruise 70-08 using an AutoLab Model 601 Mark III inductive Salinometer and on Cruise 70-09 a Bissett-Berman Model 6220 Lab Salinometer was used at sea. Dissolved Oxygen - Shipboard analysis- modified Winkler method (Strickland and Parsons, 1968) Nutrients - Samples were both analyzed fresh and frozen for later analysis on shore. References: 1.
