| Characteristics of suspended particulate matter in the benthic boundary layer of the continental margin of the western Barents Sea were studied during three cruises in July 1990, Winter and Summer 1991 by collecting water samples 10, 15, 25, 40 and 500 cm above the sea-floor. At all stations gradients of oxygen and particulate matter within the benthic boundary layer were evident. Oxygen varied between 266 and 376 mu mol l(-1) and did not correlate with height above the sea-floor. Total particulate matter concentrations ranged from 0.75 to 11.3 mg l(-1) Particulate organic carbon concentrations ranged from 16 to 107 mu g l(-1) and chlorophyll equivalent concentrations ranged from 0.0 to 0.18 mu g l(-1). Bacterial biomass measured at 5 stations varied... |
