Benthos and Water Column Process Influences, Northeast Water Polynya Project,
1992
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/106.ARCSS115

Summary
These data include physical and biological parameters measured to address the
influence of water column processes on the benthos in the Northeast Water
Polynya Project on the northeast Greenland continental shelf and surrounding
ice-covered areas in July and August of 1992. Data collected include infaunal
density, polychaete biomass, sediment carbon concentration, and benthic
pigment concentration measured in replicate box cores at 16 stations. Samples
were collected from the ship United States Coast Guard Cutter (USCGC) Polar
Sea.
