They describe the release of dissolved iron (Fe) from the benthic boundary layer and show that a sizeable fraction of this Fe is present as soluble Fe(II). Hypoxia is increasing in strength and duration on the Oregon continental shelf. Intermediate waters of the North Pacific are also experiencing deoxygenation. Lower oxygen (O2) will lead to elevated Fe(II) release and persistence in the water column, increasing the role of the Oregon continental margin as an Fe source. Coastal Oregon and North Pacific Ocean waters are often iron-limited and this increased Fe source could act as a positive feedback to Pacific deoxygenation by increasing primary production and therefore carbon supply to hypoxic intermediate waters. Understanding and simulating continental margin Fe supply will provide helpful information for predicting the condition of the future coastal ocean. Intensive modeling and monitoring already occur for these waters due to their economic significance and an improved understanding of Fe, a critical nutrient in this region, will advance these efforts. Note this version of the dataset includes data only from the August 2021 cruise."; String title "[Benthic Iron on the Oregon Shelf] - Benthic iron data on the Oregon Shelf from samples collected on R/V Oceanus cruise OC2107A during July to August 2021 (Collaborative Research: Coupling of physical and chemical processes in the shelf to basin transport of iron and iodine off Washington and Oregon)"; Float64 Westernmost_Easting -126.0507; } }
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.
