Sea-ice biogeochemistry data collected during voyage 2 of the Aurora Australis in 2016-2017

Created 24/06/2025

Updated 24/06/2025

This data encompasses a set of biochemical parameter (iron, macronutrients, Chlorophyll-a, particulate organic matter and particulate exopolysaccharides) measured within East Antarctic first-year land-fast and pack sea ice from nine stations sampled along the Wilkes Land and King George V Land Coast during austral mid-late summer 2016/17. This dataset supports the manuscript entitled "Iron distribution in East Antarctic summer sea ice: a potential contribution from glacial basal melt." to be submitted to the Journal of Geophysical Research on Jan/2020 by Luis Paulo Duprat and co-authors.
