Slow-sinking particles were sampled using the Marine Snow Catcher (MSC). For a full description of the MSC and flux calculations see Riley et al. (2012). The MSC was deployed at four depths between 50 - 650 m during four visit at Stations 1 (63°3' N 11°0' W) and three visits at Station 2 (62°5' N 2°3' W) to obtain depth profiles of slow-sinking material. The MSC was further deployed at 50 m during two visits at Station 3 (60°2' N 1°0' E). A total of 33 MSC were deployed. Slow-sinking particles were analysed for particulate organic carbon (POC), particulate inorganic carbon (PIC), biogenic silica (BSi), and Chlorophyll a (total, >10 µm).
