Dissolved Organic Carbon in Sub-Arctic Northeast Pacific Ocean

  • Chapter
Dynamics and Characterization of Marine Organic Matter

Part of the book series: Ocean Sciences Research (OSR) ((OCRE,volume 2))

Abstract

DOC measurements in the Northeast Pacific Ocean from May and September 1995 cruises were made by HTCO technique for Stations P04, P12, P16 and P26 on Line P between the west coast of Vancouver Island to Station P (50°N, 145°W). The DOC features together with oceanographic data of temperature, salinity, nitrate, and silicate were discussed.
