Consequently, its distribution and speciation in marine environments is an important factor in understanding the activity of marine biota. Dissolved cobalt often displays a 'hybrid' profile type, with biological uptake dominating in the surface waters and removal by scavenging onto particles in the mesopelagic and below. These scavenging processes limit the accumulation of dissolved Co in the deep ocean. The relative contributions of scavenging and surface biological uptake are variable regionally due to both chemical and biological factors: recent research shows that dCo inventories may be intimately tied to the manganese redox cycle and formation of Mn oxides, and thus is heavily influenced by oxygen availability and local microbial community structure. Variability in Co usage - and by extension, its stoichiometry with respect to macronutrients - could be the result of differing uses of and needs for Co-utilizing metalloenzymes between taxa, and the plasticity of individual organisms with regards to metal availability. This dataset includes dissolved total (dCo) and labile Co (lCo) measurements from the GP17-OCE expedition, which occurred from 1 December 2022 to 25 January 2023, and traversed the South Pacific and a portion of the Southern Ocean. dCo samples are UV-irradiated before measurement, and so include both ligand bound and free Co. lCo samples are not UV-irradiated, thus represent the free Co inventory and that which is very weakly bound. lCo can be considered as the more bioavailable fraction. These samples were analyzed using competitive ligand exchange cathodic stripping voltammetry with a hanging mercury drop electrode. The dissolved Co distribution is understudied in much of the ocean, including the Southern Ocean. Given the contribution of the Southern Ocean to global deep water formation, the influences on the dCo inventory in this region likely impact Co supply in all ocean basins.\n\ncdm_data_type = Other\nVARIABLES:\nStation_ID (unitless)\nEvent_ID (unitless)\nGear_ID (unitless)\ntime (Start_iso_datetime_utc, seconds since 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z)\nStart_Date_UTC (unitless)\n...
