Environmental data for Macrobenthic sampling stations in the Chukchi Sea
[Blanchard]
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/255.006

Summary
These data were collected in 1986 and 1987 under the supervision of Dr. Howard
Feder. The data include sediment grain-size (%), sediment organic carbon (mg
per g), bottom-water temperature (C), and bottom-water salinity. See the
related publication for details. This dataset is part of the Pacific Marine
Arctic Regional Synthesis (PacMARS) Project. Note that there are missing
values that exist as blanks in the Excel file.
