Dissolved rare earth element (REE) concentrations from the GEOTRACES North Atlantic Transect (Section GA03) collected on the R/V Knorr KN199-04, KN199-05, KN204-01 during 2010 (U.S. GEOTRACES NAT project) (NCEI Accession 0278734)
This dataset contains chemical and physical data collected on R/V Knorr during cruises KN199-04, KN199-05, and KN204-01 in the North Atlantic Ocean from 2010-10-16 to 2010-11-02. These data include depth, trace metal concentration, and water pressure. The instruments used to collect these data include GO-FLO Teflon Trace Metal Bottle, GeoFish Towed near-Surface Sampler, and Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer. These data were collected by Alan M. Shiller of University of Southern Mississippi as part of the "Participation in October 2011 US GEOTRACES North Atlantic Zonal Section Continuation Cruise (NAT_Continue)" and "U.S. GEOTRACES North Atlantic Transect (U.S. GEOTRACES NAT)" projects and "U.S. GEOTRACES (U.S. GEOTRACES)" program. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2021-01-08.

Supplemental Information | Acquisition Description: Water column samples were taken from the GEOTRACES carousel and filtered through precleaned, 0.2 um Pall Acropak Supor filter capsules as described elsewhere (e.g., Cutter et al., 2012; Hatta et al., 2015). Near surface water samples were collected using an underway towedfish pumped seawater system (Bruland et al., 2005) with samples filtered through sequential 0.45 um Osmonics and 0.2 um Polycarbonate (PCTE) cartridge filters. Filtered water was collected in 125 mL HDPE bottles (Nalgene) that had been precleaned by soaking in hot 1.2 M HCl (reagent grade) for at least 8 h with subsequent thorough rinsing with ultrapure distilled deionized water (Barnstead E-pure). Samples were acidified in a laminar flow bench aboard ship using 0.5 mL of ultrapure HCl per 125 mL sample. For analysis of dissolved rare earth elements (including Y), 14 mL of sample was spiked with a mixture of isotopically-enriched Nd-145, Sm-149, Eu-153, Gd-155, Dy-161, Er-167, and Yb-171 (Oak Ridge Nat’l. Labs). Each spike was greater than 90% enriched in the listed isotopes. The sample/spike ratio was chosen so as to have the analytical isotope ratios approximately the geometric mean of the natural and enriched spike isotope ratios. Samples were then extracted/pre-concentrated using a SeaFAST system (Elemental Scientific, Inc.) operated in offline mode. A similar online SeaFAST extraction procedure is described by Hawthorn et al., 2012. The extracted samples were subsequently analyzed using a Thermo-Fisher high resolution ICP-MS with an Apex-FAST high efficiency sample introduction system with Spiro desolvator (Elemental Scientific, Inc.). The instrument was operated in low resolution. The enriched isotope spikes also served to provide counts/sec. calibration factors for elements that were not spiked with enriched isotopes. This calibration was also examined with a standard made in dilute nitric acid. Precision and recovery were checked by analysis of a large-volume composite North Atlantic surface seawater sample. Spiked (with a natural isotopic abundance elemental spike) and unspiked aliquots of this sample were analyzed twice in each analytical run. A Ba standard was also run to check for BaO+ interference on several isotopes and Ba in the extracted samples was also monitored. Because the extraction resin in the SeaFAST system (Nobias PA-1) discriminates against Ba, plus the reduction of the BaO+ interference by the desolvation system, BaO+ was less than 0.1% of the counts in Eu-151, Eu-153, Gd-155, and Gd-157. Tests also revealed no significant low REE oxide interference on mid-/high-REEs. |
