attribute NC_GLOBAL acquisition_description String Small holes were drilled through the McMurdo Sound fast ice. A Niskin Bottle\nwas deployed below the fast ice and water was collected just below the ice-\nwater interface and at a pre-determined depth (Chlorophyll maximum) as\ndetermined by a fluorescence sensor on a CTD. Water samples from the Niskin\nbottles were collected in 4 L amber Nalgene bottles and then immediately\nstored in a dark cooler. Gloves were worn for sample collection and bottles\nand caps were rinsed three times before sample collection. The sample bottles\nwere immediately processed as soon as they returned from the field. The\ncollection bottle was gently swirled and 50 to 2000 mL were filtered under low\nvacuum onto a 25 mm GF/F filter. Filters were immediately placed in 13 mm\nborosilicate test tubes containing 7 mL 90% v/v HPLC grade acetone and\nextracted in the dark for 24 h at -20 degrees C. After extraction,\nfluorescence was measured with a Turner Designs 10 AU fluorometer before and\nafter acidification. The fluorometer was calibrated at McMurdo Station at the\nbeginning of the field season using Chlorophyll a standards from Sigma-Aldrich\nand rechecked using a solid standard from Turner Designs several times during\nthe field season. Chlorophyll a was determined using the methods of Parsons et\nal. (1984).\n \nReference:  \n Parsons, T.R., Maita, Y., Lalli, C.M., 1984.

attribute NC_GLOBAL instruments_0_description String A Niskin bottle (a next generation water sampler based on the Nansen bottle) is a cylindrical, non-metallic water collection device with stoppers at both ends.  The bottles can be attached individually on a hydrowire or deployed in 12, 24 or 36 bottle Rosette systems mounted on a frame and combined with a CTD.  Niskin bottles are used to collect discrete water samples for a range of measurements including pigments, nutrients, plankton, etc.

attribute NC_GLOBAL instruments_1_description String The Environmental Characterization Optics (ECO) series of single channel fluorometers delivers both high resolution and wide ranges across the entire line of parameters using 14 bit digital processing. The ECO series excels in biological monitoring and dye trace studies. The potted optics block results in long term stability of the instrument and the optional anti-biofouling technology delivers truly long term field measurements.\n more information from Wet Labs

attribute NC_GLOBAL projects_0_acronym String McMurdo Predator Prey
attribute NC_GLOBAL projects_0_description String Extracted from the NSF award abstract:\nThe research project investigates the importance of top down forcing on pelagic food webs. The relatively pristine Ross Sea includes large populations of upper-level predators such as minke and killer whales, Adélie and Emperor penguins, and Antarctic toothfish. This project focuses on food web interactions of Adélie penguins, minke whales, and the fish-eating Ross Sea killer whales, all of which exert foraging pressure on their main prey, crystal krill (Euphausia cyrstallorophias) and silver fish (Pleuragramma antarcticum) in McMurdo Sound.\nThe investigators used a video- and acoustic-capable ROV, and standard biological and environmental sensors to quantify the abundance and distribution of phytoplankton, sea ice biota, prey, and relevant habitat data.  The sampling area included 37 stations across an 30 x 15 km section of McMurdo Sound, stratified by distance from the ice edge as a proxy for air-breathing predator access. This study will be among the first to assess top-down forcing in the Ross Sea ecosystem and will form the basis for multidisciplinary studies in the future.\nMap sampling stations
