This dataset contains chemical data collected on R/V Maria S. Merian during cruise MSM20-5 from 2008-04-19 to 2008-04-30. These data include Total Dissolved Nitrogen and dissolved organic Carbon. The instruments used to collect these data include Shimadzu TOC-L Analyzer. These data were collected by Peter Girguis of Harvard University, Julie Huber of Marine Biological Laboratory, and Brian Glazer of University of Hawaii at Manoa as part of the "Collaborative Research: Characterization of Microbial Transformations in Basement Fluids, from Genes to Geochemical Cycling (North Pond Microbes)" project and "Center for Dark Energy Biosphere Investigations (C-DEBI)" and "International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP)" programs. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2022-05-13.

The following is the text of the dataset description provided by BCO-DMO:

Dissolved organic carbon and total dissolved nitrogen from the formation fluids recovered from the CORKs installed at the North Pond in 2012.

Dataset Description:
Dissolved organic carbon and total dissolved nitrogen from the formation fluids recovered from the CORKs installed at the North Pond in 2012 on MSM20-5. The North Pond is an isolated, northeast-trending, ~8 km × 15 km sediment pond located on the western flank of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge (MAR) at 22°45' N and 46°05' W.

Details of these CORKS and their positions, construction and depth can be found in the Proceedings of the IODP expedition 336. See: http://publications.iodp.org/scientific_prospectus/336/336sp_6.htm

In addition to NSF OCE-1061934 (to Girguis), this dataset was funded by C-DEBI (OCE-0939564) sub-award number 41940192 granted to Beate Kraft.

Supplemental Information
Acquisition Description:
Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and total dissolved nitrogen (TDN) were measured by high temperature (680 ºC) combustion using a Shimadzu TOC-L analyzer at the SOEST Laboratory for Analytical Biogeochemistry, University of Hawaii. Samples analyzed include those filtered in situ for crustal fluids as well as the CTD samples filtered on deck. Samples were acidified to pH <2 within the autosampler syringe and were purged with nitrogen to remove inorganic carbon. Five to six replicate analyses were performed using an injected sample volume of 150 μL. The detection limits of DOC and TDN were about 2 and 1.5 uM, respectively. Two consensus reference materials CRM, from University of Miami, deep seawater and low carbon water, were used extensively before, between, and after sample analysis to monitor analytical accuracy. The analytical reproducibility for DOC and TDN is better than 1.1 uM and 460 0.2 uM, respectively, by repeated analysis of four deep seawater CRM.
Purpose This dataset is available to the public for a wide variety of uses including scientific research and analysis.
