CHN Elemental Analyzer
Instrument Short Name: CHN_EA
Instrument Description:

A CHN Elemental Analyzer is used for the determination of carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen content in organic and other types of materials, including solids, liquids, volatile, and viscous samples.

PI supplied instrument name: CHN_EA
Dataset-specific description

Samples were run using a Costech 4010 Elemental Analyzer combustion system coupled to a Thermo DeltaV Plus IRMS via a Thermo Conflo IV interface (University of Chicago), or using the same Elemental Analyzer coupled to a Thermo DeltaXP Advantage IRMS via a Thermo Conflo III interface (Yale University). Reproducibility was better than ± 0.1‰.

These instruments were used to look at the mass composition and isotopic signatures of the algal and filter material.
