Short summary
A suspended particulate matter distribution against a hydrographical background was studied along an oceanographic transect across the Equatorial Atlantic in the year 2000. Alongside the general agreement with the three-layer model of the ocean suspended particulate matter distribution, there was a massive area with high SPM concentrations above the Sierra Leone Rise and local SPM maxima in the bottom layer within Antarctic Bottom Water.
