Objectives1. To identify and quantify the fate of river-borne nutrients entering the Wash and Humber estuary, examining nutrient distriubtions from the river inputs through to the North Sea. (AE0504A0).
2. To examine sediment biogeochemical processes that control the behaviour of nutrients in the North Sea (AE0504A0).
3. To take samples over a grid in the North Sea to improve knowledge of the seasonal signal in nutrient concentration, particuarly phosphate (AE0503A0).
Additional aims:
4. To recover 2 moorings from the Wash, one containing an in situ nitrate analyser. (AE0504A0).
5. To collect air and water samples for low molecular weight hydrocarbon studies. (W Broadgate, P S Liss, S Penkett, University of East Anglia).
