Preliminary studies indicate that groundwater may supply both dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) and iron in this region. In coastal ecosystems like the West Florida Shelf that have very low nitrate and ammonium concentrations, DON is the main form of nitrogen available to organisms. Nitrogen cycling is strongly affected by iron availability because iron is essential for both photosynthesis and for nitrogen fixation. This study will investigate the sources and composition of DON and iron, and their influence on the coastal ecosystem. The team will sample offshore groundwater wells, river and estuarine waters, and conduct two expeditions across the West Florida Shelf in winter and summer.\n\ncdm_data_type = Other\nVARIABLES:\nEVTNBR (unitless)\nISO_DateTime_UTC (unitless)\nDATE_UTC (unitless)\nTIME_UTC (unitless)\nDATE_GMT (unitless)\nTIME_GMT (unitless)\nlatitude (degrees_north)\nlongitude (degrees_east)\nPLATFORM (unitless)\nCASTNBR (unitless)\nSTNNBR (unitless)\nBTLNBR (unitless)\ndepth (m)\nNO3_NO2 (micromoles per liter (uM))\n...
