©2020 Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office.This dataset is part of a field study examining the effect of diel oxygen cycling on faunal activity, and in turn sediment oxygen demand. The field experiment used in situ flow-through benthic chambers to measure oxygen consumption, as described in the methods paper Gadeken et al 2023.

This dataset is part of a field study examining the effect of diel oxygen cycling on faunal activity, and in turn sediment oxygen demand. The field experiment used in situ flow-through benthic chambers to measure oxygen consumption, as described in the methods paper Gadeken et al 2023.
The chambers were deployed and retrieved in three ~24 hour deployments in a shallow subtidal area of Bon Secour Bay in Mobile Bay, AL, in August 2021.
This dataset contains sediment characteristic information from three cores taken within 10m of the deployment location. The coring was done with 10 cm diameter polycarbonate cores pushed into the sediment to extract 8 cm depth of sediment. This file documents the calculation process for porosity and organic matter (LOI).
