String acquisition_description
"Small holes were drilled through the McMurdo Sound fast ice. A Niskin Bottle
was deployed below the fast ice and water was collected just below the ice-
water interface and at a pre-determined depth (Chlorophyll maximum) as
determined by a fluorescence sensor on a CTD. Water samples from the Niskin
bottles were collected in 4 L amber Nalgene bottles and then immediately
stored in a dark cooler. Gloves were worn for sample collection and bottles
and caps were rinsed three times before sample collection. The sample bottles
were immediately processed as soon as they returned from the field. The
collection bottle was gently swirled and 50 to 2000 mL were filtered under low
vacuum onto a 25 mm GF/F filter. Filters were immediately placed in 13 mm
borosilicate test tubes containing 7 mL 90% v/v HPLC grade acetone and
extracted in the dark for 24 h at -20 degrees C. After extraction,
fluorescence was measured with a Turner Designs 10 AU fluorometer before and
after acidification. The fluorometer was calibrated at McMurdo Station at the
beginning of the field season using Chlorophyll a standards from Sigma-Aldrich
and rechecked using a solid standard from Turner Designs several times during
the field season. Chlorophyll a was determined using the methods of Parsons et
al. (1984).

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.";

"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.

"Extracted from the NSF award abstract:
The 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.
The 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.

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.
