String summary
"An investigation of the benthic biology and biogeochemistry of caves within karst subterranean estuaries was undertaken in the state of Quintana Roo, Mexico, to establish relationships between benthic eukaryotic community diversity and elemental cycles within the sediments and in the overlying water column. This dataset focuses on the geochemical analysis of the water column, sediment pore fluids, and bulk sediments from flooded caves, open-water cave entry pools (or cenotes), and associated marine waters. The water column and pore water measurements include the following dissolved components: anions (sulfate and chloride), nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus and silicate-based), organic carbon, inorganic carbon, methane, and carbon dioxide. All species were analyzed for concentrations, and the carbon species measurements additionally include stable carbon isotope ratios. The bulk sediment measurements include the weight percent of total organic carbon, calcium carbonate, and total nitrogen, and additionally the stable carbon and nitrogen isotope ratios of the total organic carbon and total nitrogen. The dataset includes a description of the geographic region, the sampled cave system, the cave entry location, and the sampling station with the cave (if available). For each sample, the associated water mass (fresh, brackish, or saline groundwater, or seawater) and habitat (open water, cenote, cavern, cave, or sea) are provided. The dataset also includes endmembers from surface waters proximal to each cave system and the coastline.
The project is a collaboration between the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Texas A&M University at San Antonio, Campus Yucatan of the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM), and the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). Primary funding was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) with additional support provided by the U.S. Geological Survey.";

Data Access Protocol (DAP) and its
selection constraints.
The URL specifies what you want: the dataset, a description of the graph or the subset of the data, and the file type for the response.
Tabledap request URLs must be in the form
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/datasetID.fileType{?query}
For example,
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/pmelTaoDySst.htmlTable?longitude,latitude,time,station,wmo_platform_code,T_25&time>=2015-05-23T12:00:00Z&time<=2015-05-31T12:00:00Z
Thus, the query is often a comma-separated list of desired variable names,
followed by a collection of
constraints (e.g., variable<value),
each preceded by '&' (which is interpreted as "AND").
For details, see the tabledap Documentation.
