The Dataset's Variables and Attributes

Row Type Variable Name Attribute Name Data Type Value
attribute NC_GLOBAL abstract String GOMECC Gulf of Mexico and East Coast Carbon Cruise(RB 07-05). North American Carbon Program (NACP) Gulf of Mexico and East Coast Carbon (GOMECC) Cruise on board NOAA Ship Ronald H. Brown from Galveston in the northern Gulf of Mexico to Boston on the East coast. The cruise was designed to obtain a snapshot of concentrations and fluxes of key carbon, physical, and biogeochemical parameters in the coastal realm. The program is in support of the North American Carbon Program (NACP) that has as overriding goal to constrain fluxes of carbon over North America and adjacent seas. This project is in support of the North American Carbon Program (NACP) and represents a collaboration between the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the Earth System Research Laboratory, the University of Miami Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science, the University of South Florida, the University of Georgia,the University of New Hampshire, Texas AM University, the University of Colorado, the University of Southern Mississippi, Loyola College of Maryland, and Lamont Doherty Earth Observatory. The cruise departed Galveston, Texas on July 10, 2007 and arrived in Boston, Massachusetts on August 4, 2007.

attribute alkali detailed_sampling_and_analyzing_information String During this cruise (7/10 – 8/4, 2007), 957 TA samples were collected from 87 stations along with 9 transects, 6 samples from a buoy station and 11 samples from the underway system. Besides, 1 Savannah River water TA sample was measured. These samples were kept in 4 ° C walk-in refrigerator (if necessary) and were measured in 48 hours. TA samples were taken by 250ml narrow ground neck Pyrex bottles from Niskin bottles after removing air bubbles from the sampling tubing. Each glass bottle was rinsed three times using half of the bottle volume sample seawater and then filled from the bottom; overflow of half of bottle volume seawater was allowed. No headspace was left after the stopper was replaced. Duplicated sampling for one depth was done for every four stations.

attribute alkali replication String Every sample was titrated at least twice. Certified Reference Material (CRM), Batch 80, supplied by Dr. A. Dickson of SIO, was used to determine HCl concentration before the measurements. System (titrator and electrode) stability was also checked along with the sample run using the CRM seawater every 12 hours. Duplicated samples and replicated measurements of the same sample show no significant difference. The precision of this method is better than 0.1% and accuracy is 0.1%.

Bottles were rinsed and filled from the bottom, leaving 6 mL of headspace; care was taken not to entrain any bubbles. After 0.2 mL of saturated HgCl 2 solution was added as a preservative, the sample bottles were sealed with glass stoppers lightly covered with Apiezon-L grease and were stored at room temperature for a maximum of 12 hours prior to analysis.

attribute ctd_oxygen detailed_sampling_and_analyzing_information String The SBE 43 dissolved oxygen sensor uses a membrane polarographic oxygen detector (MPOD). Oxygen sensors determine the dissolved oxygen concentration by counting the number of oxygen molecules per second (flux) that diffuse through a membrane. By knowing the flux of oxygen and the geometry of the diffusion path, the concentration of oxygen can be computed. The permeability of the membrane to oxygen is a function of temperature and ambient pressure. In order to minimize the errors in the oxygen measurement due the temperature differences between the water and the oxygen sensor, a temperature compensation is calculated using a temperature measured near the active surface of the sensor. The interface electronics output voltages proportional to the 13temperature-compensated oxygen current. Initial computation of dissolved oxygen in engineering units is done in the software. The range for dissolved oxygen is 120% of surface saturation in all natural waters, fresh and salt and the nominal accuracy is 2% of saturation.

attribute ctd_oxygen oxygen_measurements String Samples were drawn from all casts and all Niskin bottles into calibrated 125 ml iodine titration flasks using Tygon tubing with a silicone adaptor that fit over the petcock to avoid contamination of DOC samples. Bottles were rinsed three times and filled from the bottom, overflowing three volumes while taking care not to entrain any bubbles. The draw temperature was taken using a digital thermometer with a flexible thermistor probe that was inserted into the flask while the sample was being drawn during the overflow period. These temperatures were used to calculate μmol kg -1 concentrations, and a diagnostic check of Niskin bottle integrity. One-ml of MnCl 2 and one-ml of NaOH/NaI were added immediately after drawing the sample was concluded using a Repipetor, the flasks were then stoppered and shaken well. DIW was added to the neck of each flask to create a water seal. The flasks were stored in the lab in plastic totes at room temperature for 1-2 hours before analysis. Twenty-four samples plus two duplicates were drawn from each station except the shallow costal stations where fewer samples were drawn depending on the depth.

The resistance measured between the center electrode and the end electrode pair is determined by the cell geometry and the specific conductance of the fluid within the cell, and controls the output frequency of a Wein Bridge circuit. The sensor has a frequency output of approximately 3 to 12 kHz corresponding to conductivity from 0 to 7 Siemens/meter (0 to 70 mmho/cm). The SBE 4 has a typical accuracy/stability of ±0.0003 S/m and resolution of 0.00004 S/m at 24 scans per second.

The four channel autoanalyzer was customized using components from various systems. The major components were a WESTCO CS-9000 sampler, two peristaltic pumps, four Perstorp monochrometers and custom software for digitally logging and processing the chromatograms. Micro-coils from Alpkem were used for the analysis of the nutrients. 23The detailed methods were described by Gordon et al. (1992). Pump tubes were changed twice during this expedition. Nitrate and Nitrite analysis were also a modification from Armstrong et al. (1967). Nitrate was reduced to nitrite in a cadmium column, formed into a red azo dye by complexing nitrite with sulfanilamide and N-1-naphthylethylenediamine and the color formation was detected at 540 nm. The same technique was used to measure nitrite (excluding the reduction step).

About 5 ml of water was withdrawn to allow for expansion of the water as it warms and to provide space for the stopper, tubing, and frit of the analytical system. Saturated mercuric chloride solution (0.2 ml) was added as a preservative. The sample bottles were 27sealed with a screw cap containing a polyethylene liner. The samples were stored in coolers at room temperature generally for no more than 6 hours.

Micro-coils from Alpkem were used for the analysis of the nutrients. 23The detailed methods were described by Gordon et al. (1992). Pump tubes were changed twice during this expedition. Silicic acid was analyzed using a modification of Armstrong et al. (1967). An acidic solution of ammonium molybdate was added to a seawater sample to produce silicomolybic acid. Oxalic acid was added to inhibit a secondary reaction with phosphate. Finally, the reaction with ascorbic acid formed the blue compound silicomolybdous acid. The color formation was detected using a 6mm flowcell at 660 nm. The use of oxalic acid and ascorbic acid (instead of tartaric acid and stannous chloride by Gordon et al.) was to reduce toxicity of our waste steam.

attribute temperature detailed_sampling_and_analyzing_information String The temperature-sensing element is a glass-coated thermistor bead, pressure protected by a stainless steel tube. The sensor output frequency ranges from 5-13 kHz corresponding to temperature from –5 to 35 °C. The output frequency is inversely proportional to the square root of the thermistor resistance, which controls the output of a patented Wein Bridge circuit. The thermistor resistance is exponentially related to temperature. The SBE 3 thermometer has a typical accuracy/stability of ±0.004°C per year and resolution of 0.0003 °C at 24 samples per second. The SBE 3 thermometer has a fast response time of 0.070 seconds.
