Abstract:
Fluxes of planktonic foraminifera, carbonate and particulate organic carbon from the central station of the LTER (Long-Term Ecological Research) HAUSGARTEN observatory in the Fram Strait at two depths intervals (213 m, 2319 m) from a one-year time period (24.06.2014 to 15.07.2015). Samples were collected with two modified automatic Kiel sediment traps installed in a bottom-tethered long-term mooring. This data set includes species-specific shell counts, individual shell sizes and species-specific bulk weights of planktonic foraminifera. Moreover, it contains total carbonate (CaCO3) and particulate organic carbon (POC) fluxes. The measurements were conducted to asses the abundances and mass contribution of planktonic foraminifera to total carbonate fluxes, and to better understand their variability throughout a whole seasonal cycle.
