Title: Suspended particulate organic matter composition of three marsh ponds in PIE-LTER (Rowley, MA) from 2014 (NCEI Accession 0277384)
Abstract: This dataset contains chemical and physical data collected at shoreside Massachusetts during deployment Plum_Island from 2014-09-01 to 2014-11-30. These data include Carbon, Nitrogen, d13C, d15N, and total organic Carbon. The instruments used to collect these data include Isotope-ratio Mass Spectrometer. These data were collected by Amanda Spivak of Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution as part of the "Eutrophication Effects on Sediment Metabolism and Benthic Algal-bacterial Coupling: An Application of Novel Techniques in a LTER Estuary (benthic_PP_at_TIDE)" project. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2023-01-23.

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

Suspended particulate organic matter composition of three high marsh ponds within PIE-LTER. Data were collected over 11 weeks in the summer and fall of 2014.

Dataset Description:
The three ponds are located in the high marsh (1.43-1.46 m above North American Vertical Datum of 1988) of the Plum Island Ecosystems – Long Term Ecological Research (PIE-LTER) site. Suspended POM in pond surface waters was collected weekly in 1 L combusted glass bottles and filtered through combusted glass fiber filters (June 25-August 13, November 11-25, 2014) and analyzed for TOC, TN, δ 13 C, and δ 15 N. All samples were frozen (-20 ℃) until analysis. Samples were prepared for elemental and isotopic analyses by drying to constant mass (60 °C) and fuming with hydrochloric (HCl) acid to remove carbonates (Hedges and Stern 1984). Analyses were performed by the Stable Isotope Laboratory at the Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, MA). Isotopic data are reported in the conventional δ-notation in units of per mil (‰).
