This dataset contains the nitrate, nitrite, nitrate + nitrite, and phosphate data that were used to estimate Net Community Production (NCP) from seasonal changes in nutrient concentrations (Codispoti et al., submitted). They comprise an edited suite of data from the following databases: An Arctic nutrient data (ARCNUT) base assembled under the direction of G. Cota and L. Pomeroy (http://data.eol.ucar.edu/codiac/dss/id=62.015), the Eurocean database (http://www.eur-oceans.eu/integration/wp2.2), an initial version (2009) of the CARINA database http://cdiac.ornl.gov/oceans/CARINA/Carina_inv.html), and the Hydrochemical Atlas of the Arctic Ocean (Colony and Timokhov, 2001). These data were supplemented with observations from the Western Arctic Shelf-Basins Interaction Program (Codispoti et al., 2005 &2009), data from the Fram III expedition (Packard and Codispoti, 2007), data from the Canadian Archipelago supplied by F. McLaughlin, and data from a recent expedition to the Canadian Archipelago and Baffin Bay supplied by K. Falkner.
