South China Sea Expedition for the trace metal study

My master students and I were lucky enough to get an opportunity to work onboard of the MV SEAFDEC2 ship from August to October 2015, between 2 – 6°N and 100 –113°E. We conducted several research activity and one of them were this paper, working on the physicochemical parameters of the surface water. Samples were collected at locations as shown in Figure 1. This study was funded by my SGS grant received in 2014. This paper was the work of my master student (graduated), Melissa Denis Chong.
