   PI-Notes:
   Patricia Wheeler notes:

   1) These incubations were all run in parallel with Dick Barber's in situ
      14C measurements.
   2) The new production (nitrate uptake) estimates are based on the mean of
      duplicate incubations for each depth.
   3) Saturated ammonium uptake was measured at concentrations of about 5 µM
      and are single incubations for each depth.  These rates are "potential"
      uptake rates and need to be interpreted carefully.

   Analytical methods reported in:
   Wheeler, P.A. 1993. New production in the subarctic Pacific Ocean: Net
   changes in nitrate concentrations, rates of nitrate assimilation and
   accumulation of particulate nitrogen. Prog. Oceanogr. 32:137-161.
