contents The sediment trap experiment started in 1986 and was expanded into the Bay of Bengal only one year later in 1987. The fieldwork ended at around 1998. In 2007 and 2008, we tried to reinitiate a sediment trap program in the Arabian Sea, although this could not be followed up due to piracy, which became an issue in the region at that time. The sediment trap sites in the northern and central Bay of Bengal were shifted slightly southward in some years, whereby the stations NBBT and CBBT were spilt into northern (NBBT-N, CBBT-N) and southern sites (NBBT-S, CBBT-S). Between 2001 and 2004 additional sediment trap experiments were carried out in the upwelling system off South Java.
