Total dissolved Cobalt and labile Cobalt concentrations from KN199-04 and KN204-01. Dataset Description: <p>Concentrations of total dissolved cobalt and labile dissolved cobalt (0.2 um filtered).</p> Methods and Sampling: <p>Samples were collected using the ODU GEOTRACES Carousel (GT-C), and were filtered through 0.2 um Acropak filters in the GEOTRACES clean van and immediately refrigerated. Samples were kept in acid-washed 60 mL LDPE bottles, and either stored for a short time (&lt;7 days) at 4°C and double-bagged prior to analysis, or for a longer time (up to 40 days) at 4°C and in a heat-sealed bag with gas absorbing satchels. Both labile and total dissolved cobalt were analyzed from this sample bottle, and the sample identifier is the allocated GEOTRACES number.</p>
<p>The carousel was used to collect samples from surface to near bottom waters, and an additional sample was collected from a surface towfish at each station. Pre-conditioned, teflon-coated Go-Flo sampling bottles (General Oceanics, Miami, FL) of 12 L capacity were deployed on a polyurethane powder-coated aluminum rosette with titanium pilings and pressure housings (Sea-Bird Electronics, Inc., Bellevue, WA) attached to a Kevlar, non-metallic conducting cable. For more information regarding carousel deployment, please refer to the <a href="http://www.geotraces.org/science/intercalibration/222-sampling-and-sample-handling-protocols-for-geotraces-cruises" target="_blank">GEOTRACES Cookbook</a> (www.geotraces.org/science/intercalibration/222-sampling-and-sample-handling-protocols-for-geotraces-cruises), located on the <a href="http://www.geotraces.org/" target="_blank">GEOTRACES Program website</a> (www.geotraces.org/). Following the retrieval of the carousel, Go-Flo bottles were moved to the GEOTRACES Program class-100 trace metal clean van, and pressurized with HEPA filtered air for sampling in accordance with published methods (Cutter and Bruland 2012). Surface towfish samples were collected by suspending the towfish off the starboard side with a boom, and sampled water at approximately 2 m depth using a Teflon diaphragm pump following the GEOTRACES Program Cookbook sampling recommendations, and in accordance with previous collection protocols (Bruland et al. 2004).</p>
<p>Sample storage bottles were soaked overnight in the acidic detergent, Citranox, rinsed thoroughly with Milli-Q water (Millipore), filled with 10% HCl to soak for 10 days, rinsed thoroughly with Milli-Q water adjusted to pH 2, and double-bagged, empty.</p>
<p>Concentrations of total dissolved and labile cobalt during the KN199-04 cruise were determined ship-board using a previously described cathodic stripping voltammetry (CSV) method (Saito and Moffett 2001, Saito et al. 2004).&nbsp; Measurements were made using the Eco-Chemie µAutolabIII systems connected to Metrohm 663 VA Stands equipped with hanging mercury drop electrodes and Teflon sampling cups within 7 days of sampling. Standard additions were carried out with Metrohm 765 Dosimats using a programmed dosing procedure (Noble and Saito et al. 2008).<br />
<br />
Concentrations of total dissolved and labile cobalt from the KN204-01 cruise were measured on land between 1 and 6 weeks after the sampling date, using the same protocol as that of the KN199-04 cruise.<br />
<br />
For total dissolved cobalt analyses, samples were UV-irradiated for 1 h prior to analysis using a Metrohm 705 UV digester to degrade the organic ligands that bind cobalt and allow binding by the added electroactive cobalt ligand, dimethylglyoxime. Samples were analyzed in 8.5 mL aliquots with the addition of 30 µL recrystalized dimethylglyoxime (DMG, 0.1 mol L-1 in methanol), 1.5 mL purified sodium nitrite (1.5 mol L-1 in Milli-Q water), and 50 µL purified N-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazine-N-(3-propanesulfonic acid) (EPPS) buffer (0.5 mol L-1 in Milli-Q water).&nbsp; Reagent purification protocols were identical to those previously published (Saito and Moffett 2001). Cobalt concentrations were determined by the standard additions technique, with initial concentrations measured in triplicate followed by four 25 pmol L-1 cobalt additions.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
The analytical blank was determined by analyzing seawater that had been UV-irradiated for 1 h, equilibrated overnight with prepared Chelex 100 resin beads (Bio-Rad), and UV-irradiated a second time to degrade any leached synthetic ligands. Blanks for each reagents batch (nitrite, DMG, EPPS) were subtracted from the initial sample concentration. Blank analyses for each reagent batch were made at the beginning and end of use to confirm that the blank remained constant during analyses. The averaged blank for all reagent batches for the entire dataset was 4pM +/- 1.2 with a range of 1.7 - 6.3pM (n = 38 for individual blank analyses). For a given reagent batch, the standard deviation was smaller, and we report a detection limit (3 times the standard deviation of the blank) of 1.8pM, representing the average of the detection limits estimates for reagent batches with at least 3 blank analyses (n = 6).<br />
&nbsp;<br />
For labile cobalt analyses, 8.5 mL of sample were pipetted into acid washed Teflon vials that were preconditioned with a small aliquot of sample water. 30 uL of DMG were added to each vial and allowed to equilibrate overnight in the dark prior to analysis (Saito et al. 2004). Analyses were then performed as described for total concentrations with the addition of the remaining two reagents and use of the standard addition technique. Previously, we determined that natural cobalt ligands in seawater have a conditional stability constant of &gt;10^16.8 (Saito et al. 2005). This suggests that the cobalt is very strongly bound to ligands. Thus, we define labile cobalt as the fraction of total dissolved cobalt that is either bound to weak organic and inorganic ligands in seawater or present as free Co(II), and is then exchangeable with the complexing agent (DMG) used for analysis (Saito et al. 2004, Saito et al. 2005). The difference between the total dissolved cobalt and the labile cobalt can then be used as an estimation of the strong cobalt ligand concentration.<br />
<br />
Two full electrochemical systems were utilized for analyses. One electrode was dedicated to total analyses and the other to labile analyses. GEOTRACES standard seawater and internal standard lab seawater were analyzed periodically to ensure that the two electrodes were intercalibrated and functioning properly. GEOTRACES standard seawater was UV irradiated and neutralized using Optima ammonium hydroxide to bring the pH up to 7.5. Standard seawater internal to our lab was UV irradiated as well, but was not previously acidified so received no further treatment prior to analysis. These results demonstrate that the methodologies employed to produce this dataset detect concentrations within the standard deviation of current consensus values for UV irradiated samples, which can be found on the <a href="http://www.geotraces.org" target="_blank">International GEOTRACES Program website</a>&nbsp;(www.geotraces.org/). On occasion, analyses were repeated due to obvious electrode malfunction or to confirm oceanographic consistency of measured values. If the repeated measurement was similar to the initial, the initial value is reported. If the repeated analysis was more oceanographically consistent with adjacent values in the water column, that analysis was used instead.</p>
<p>Our laboratory has participated in the GEOTRACES intercalibration effort using this electrochemical Co method. We report our laboratory values for the GEOTRACES and SAFe standard analyses using this electrochemical method, including those conducted during analysis of the US North Atlantic GEOTRACES Section samples to be: SAFe S1 = 5.4 +/- 2.6 (n=9), SAFe D2 = 48.3 +/- 5.5 (n=7), GEOTRACES GS = 31.4 +/- 4.1 (n=24), GEOTRACES GD = 66.9 +/- 6.2 (n=30). These results are in good agreement with those from the GEOTRACES intercalibration effort for Co using different methods all using UV-oxidation to degrade strong cobalt ligands.</p>

U.S. GEOTRACES
GEOTRACES is a SCOR sponsored program; and funding for program infrastructure development is provided by the U.S. National Science Foundation.
GEOTRACES gained momentum following a special symposium, S02: Biogeochemical cycling of trace elements and isotopes in the ocean and applications to constrain contemporary marine processes (GEOSECS II), at a 2003 Goldschmidt meeting convened in Japan. The GEOSECS II acronym referred to the Geochemical Ocean Section Studies To determine full water column distributions of selected trace elements and isotopes, including their concentration, chemical speciation, and physical form, along a sufficient number of sections in each ocean basin to establish the principal relationships between these distributions and with more traditional hydrographic parameters;
* To evaluate the sources, sinks, and internal cycling of these species and thereby characterize more completely the physical, chemical and biological processes regulating their distributions, and the sensitivity of these processes to global change; and
* To understand the processes that control the concentrations of geochemical species used for proxies of the past environment, both in the water column and in the substrates that reflect the water column.
GEOTRACES will be global in scope, consisting of ocean sections complemented by regional process studies. Sections and process studies will combine fieldwork, laboratory experiments and modelling. Beyond realizing the scientific objectives identified above, a natural outcome of this work will be to build a community of marine scientists who understand the processes regulating trace element cycles sufficiently well to exploit this knowledge reliably in future interdisciplinary studies.

U.S. GEOTRACES North Atlantic Transect (GA03)
https://www.geotraces.org/
U.S. GEOTRACES North Atlantic Transect (GA03)
<p><em>Much of this text appeared in an article published in OCB News, October 2008, by the OCB Project Office.</em></p>
<p>The first U.S. GEOTRACES Atlantic Section will be specifically centered around a sampling cruise to be carried out in the North Atlantic in 2010. Ed Boyle (MIT) and Bill Jenkins (WHOI) organized a three-day planning workshop that was held September 22-24, 2008 at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. The main goal of the workshop, sponsored by the National Science Foundation and the U.S. GEOTRACES Scientific Steering Committee, was to design the implementation plan for the first U.S. GEOTRACES Atlantic Section. The primary cruise design motivation was to improve knowledge of the sources, sinks and internal cycling of Trace Elements and their Isotopes (TEIs) by studying their distributions along a section in the North Atlantic (Figure 1). The North Atlantic has the full suite of processes that affect TEIs, including strong meridional advection, boundary scavenging and source effects, aeolian deposition, and the salty Mediterranean Outflow. The North Atlantic is particularly important as it lies at the "origin" of the global Meridional Overturning Circulation.</p>
<p>It is well understood that many trace metals play important roles in biogeochemical processes and the carbon cycle, yet very little is known about their large-scale distributions and the regional scale processes that affect them. Recent advances in sampling and analytical techniques, along with advances in our understanding of their roles in enzymatic and catalytic processes in the open ocean provide a natural opportunity to make substantial advances in our understanding of these important elements. Moreover, we are motivated by the prospect of global change and the need to understand the present and future workings of the ocean's biogeochemistry. The GEOTRACES strategy is to measure a broad suite of TEIs to constrain the critical biogeochemical processes that influence their distributions. In addition to these "exotic" substances, more traditional properties, including macronutrients (at micromolar and nanomolar levels), CTD, bio-optical parameters, and carbon system characteristics will be measured. The cruise starts at Line W, a repeat hydrographic section southeast of Cape Cod, extends to Bermuda and subsequently through the North Atlantic oligotrophic subtropical gyre, then transects into the African coast in the northern limb of the coastal upwelling region. From there, the cruise goes northward into the Mediterranean outflow. The station locations shown on the map are for the "fulldepth TEI" stations, and constitute approximately half of the stations to be ultimately occupied.</p>

<p>Hydrography, CTD and nutrient measurements will be supported by the Ocean Data Facility (J. Swift) at Scripps Institution of Oceanography and funded through NSF Facilities. They will be providing an additional CTD rosette system along with nephelometer and LADCP. A trace metal clean Go-Flo Rosette and winch will be provided by the group at Old Dominion University (G. Cutter) along with a towed underway pumping system.</p>

dataset
<p>Samples were collected using the ODU GEOTRACES Carousel (GT-C), and were filtered through 0.2 um Acropak filters in the GEOTRACES clean van and immediately refrigerated. Samples were kept in acid-washed 60 mL LDPE bottles, and either stored for a short time (&lt;7 days) at 4°C and double-bagged prior to analysis, or for a longer time (up to 40 days) at 4°C and in a heat-sealed bag with gas absorbing satchels. Both labile and total dissolved cobalt were analyzed from this sample bottle, and the sample identifier is the allocated GEOTRACES number.</p>
<p>The carousel was used to collect samples from surface to near bottom waters, and an additional sample was collected from a surface towfish at each station. Pre-conditioned, teflon-coated Go-Flo sampling bottles (General Oceanics, Miami, FL) of 12 L capacity were deployed on a polyurethane powder-coated aluminum rosette with titanium pilings and pressure housings (Sea-Bird Electronics, Inc., Bellevue, WA) attached to a Kevlar, non-metallic conducting cable. For more information regarding carousel deployment, please refer to the <a href="http://www.geotraces.org/science/intercalibration/222-sampling-and-sample-handling-protocols-for-geotraces-cruises" target="_blank">GEOTRACES Cookbook</a> (www.geotraces.org/science/intercalibration/222-sampling-and-sample-handling-protocols-for-geotraces-cruises), located on the <a href="http://www.geotraces.org/" target="_blank">GEOTRACES Program website</a> (www.geotraces.org/). Following the retrieval of the carousel, Go-Flo bottles were moved to the GEOTRACES Program class-100 trace metal clean van, and pressurized with HEPA filtered air for sampling in accordance with published methods (Cutter and Bruland 2012). Surface towfish samples were collected by suspending the towfish off the starboard side with a boom, and sampled water at approximately 2 m depth using a Teflon diaphragm pump following the GEOTRACES Program Cookbook sampling recommendations, and in accordance with previous collection protocols (Bruland et al. 2004).</p>
<p>Sample storage bottles were soaked overnight in the acidic detergent, Citranox, rinsed thoroughly with Milli-Q water (Millipore), filled with 10% HCl to soak for 10 days, rinsed thoroughly with Milli-Q water adjusted to pH 2, and double-bagged, empty.</p>
<p>Concentrations of total dissolved and labile cobalt during the KN199-04 cruise were determined ship-board using a previously described cathodic stripping voltammetry (CSV) method (Saito and Moffett 2001, Saito et al. 2004).&nbsp; Measurements were made using the Eco-Chemie µAutolabIII systems connected to Metrohm 663 VA Stands equipped with hanging mercury drop electrodes and Teflon sampling cups within 7 days of sampling. Standard additions were carried out with Metrohm 765 Dosimats using a programmed dosing procedure (Noble and Saito et al. 2008).<br />
<br />
Concentrations of total dissolved and labile cobalt from the KN204-01 cruise were measured on land between 1 and 6 weeks after the sampling date, using the same protocol as that of the KN199-04 cruise.<br />
<br />
For total dissolved cobalt analyses, samples were UV-irradiated for 1 h prior to analysis using a Metrohm 705 UV digester to degrade the organic ligands that bind cobalt and allow binding by the added electroactive cobalt ligand, dimethylglyoxime. Samples were analyzed in 8.5 mL aliquots with the addition of 30 µL recrystalized dimethylglyoxime (DMG, 0.1 mol L-1 in methanol), 1.5 mL purified sodium nitrite (1.5 mol L-1 in Milli-Q water), and 50 µL purified N-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazine-N-(3-propanesulfonic acid) (EPPS) buffer (0.5 mol L-1 in Milli-Q water).&nbsp; Reagent purification protocols were identical to those previously published (Saito and Moffett 2001). Cobalt concentrations were determined by the standard additions technique, with initial concentrations measured in triplicate followed by four 25 pmol L-1 cobalt additions.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
The analytical blank was determined by analyzing seawater that had been UV-irradiated for 1 h, equilibrated overnight with prepared Chelex 100 resin beads (Bio-Rad), and UV-irradiated a second time to degrade any leached synthetic ligands. Blanks for each reagents batch (nitrite, DMG, EPPS) were subtracted from the initial sample concentration. Blank analyses for each reagent batch were made at the beginning and end of use to confirm that the blank remained constant during analyses. The averaged blank for all reagent batches for the entire dataset was 4pM +/- 1.2 with a range of 1.7 - 6.3pM (n = 38 for individual blank analyses). For a given reagent batch, the standard deviation was smaller, and we report a detection limit (3 times the standard deviation of the blank) of 1.8pM, representing the average of the detection limits estimates for reagent batches with at least 3 blank analyses (n = 6).<br />
&nbsp;<br />
For labile cobalt analyses, 8.5 mL of sample were pipetted into acid washed Teflon vials that were preconditioned with a small aliquot of sample water. 30 uL of DMG were added to each vial and allowed to equilibrate overnight in the dark prior to analysis (Saito et al. 2004). Analyses were then performed as described for total concentrations with the addition of the remaining two reagents and use of the standard addition technique. Previously, we determined that natural cobalt ligands in seawater have a conditional stability constant of &gt;10^16.8 (Saito et al. 2005). This suggests that the cobalt is very strongly bound to ligands. Thus, we define labile cobalt as the fraction of total dissolved cobalt that is either bound to weak organic and inorganic ligands in seawater or present as free Co(II), and is then exchangeable with the complexing agent (DMG) used for analysis (Saito et al. 2004, Saito et al. 2005). The difference between the total dissolved cobalt and the labile cobalt can then be used as an estimation of the strong cobalt ligand concentration.<br />
<br />
Two full electrochemical systems were utilized for analyses. One electrode was dedicated to total analyses and the other to labile analyses. GEOTRACES standard seawater and internal standard lab seawater were analyzed periodically to ensure that the two electrodes were intercalibrated and functioning properly. GEOTRACES standard seawater was UV irradiated and neutralized using Optima ammonium hydroxide to bring the pH up to 7.5. Standard seawater internal to our lab was UV irradiated as well, but was not previously acidified so received no further treatment prior to analysis. These results demonstrate that the methodologies employed to produce this dataset detect concentrations within the standard deviation of current consensus values for UV irradiated samples, which can be found on the <a href="http://www.geotraces.org" target="_blank">International GEOTRACES Program website</a>&nbsp;(www.geotraces.org/). On occasion, analyses were repeated due to obvious electrode malfunction or to confirm oceanographic consistency of measured values. If the repeated measurement was similar to the initial, the initial value is reported. If the repeated analysis was more oceanographically consistent with adjacent values in the water column, that analysis was used instead.</p>
<p>Our laboratory has participated in the GEOTRACES intercalibration effort using this electrochemical Co method. We report our laboratory values for the GEOTRACES and SAFe standard analyses using this electrochemical method, including those conducted during analysis of the US North Atlantic GEOTRACES Section samples to be: SAFe S1 = 5.4 +/- 2.6 (n=9), SAFe D2 = 48.3 +/- 5.5 (n=7), GEOTRACES GS = 31.4 +/- 4.1 (n=24), GEOTRACES GD = 66.9 +/- 6.2 (n=30). These results are in good agreement with those from the GEOTRACES intercalibration effort for Co using different methods all using UV-oxidation to degrade strong cobalt ligands.</p>
Specified by the Principal Investigator(s)
<p>For the labile cobalt analyses, the ligand concentration was often close to or in excess of the total concentration. In these situations, no measurable peak is present in the initial scan prior to standard addition. In these instances, the value is reported as '0' with a flag of 6, indicating that the labile concentration is so low that it is below our detection limit.</p>
<p>Data are flagged with the numbers described below (and found on the Ocean Data View website):<br />
0 = no quality control = No quality control procedures have been applied to the data value. This is the initial status for all data values entering the working archive.<br />
1 = good value = Good quality data value that is not part of any identified malfunction and has been verified as consistent with real phenomena during the quality control process.<br />
2 = probably good value = Data value that is probably consistent with real phenomena but this is unconfirmed or data value forming part of a malfunction that is considered too small to affect the overall quality of the data object of which it is a part.<br />
3 = probably bad value = Data value recognized as unusual during quality control that forms part of a feature that is probably inconsistent with real phenomena.<br />
4 = bad value = An obviously erroneous data value.<br />
5 = changed value = Data value adjusted during quality control. Best practice strongly recommends that the value before the change be preserved in the data or its accompanying metadata.<br />
6 = value below detection = The level of the measured phenomenon was too small to be quantified by the technique employed to measure it. The accompanying value is the detection limit for the technique or zero if that value is unknown.</p>
<p><strong>BCO-DMO made the following edits:</strong><br />
- Changed parameter names.<br />
- Replaced blanks with 'nd' to indicate 'no data'.<br />
- Added cruise_part column &amp; separated KN204-01a and KN204-01b into cruise_id &amp; cruise_part.<br />
- Separated original date field into day, month, and year.<br />
- Added ISO_DateTime_UTC (from the day, month, year, and time fields)<br />
- Corrected event number of KN199-04 station 6 cast 1 from 2026 to 2106 (due to correction in bottle file).<br />
- Corrected event numbers for samples 5622, 6000, 7964. The original sample numbers were correct, however, the event numbers were changed to match those in the event log. (26-April-2013)</p>
<p><strong>Additional GEOTRACES Processing:</strong><br />
After the data were submitted to the International Data Management Office, BODC, the office noticed that important identifying information was missing in many datasets. With the agreement of BODC and the US GEOTRACES lead PIs, BCO-DMO added standard US GEOTRACES information, such as the US GEOTRACES event number, to each submitted dataset lacking this information. To accomplish this, BCO-DMO compiled a 'master' dataset composed of the following parameters: station_GEOTRC, cast_GEOTRC (bottle and pump data only), event_GEOTRC, sample_GEOTRC, sample_bottle_GEOTRC (bottle data only), bottle_GEOTRC (bottle data only), depth_GEOTRC_CTD (bottle data only), depth_GEOTRC_CTD_rounded (bottle data only), BTL_ISO_DateTime_UTC (bottle data only), and GeoFish_id (GeoFish data only). This added information will facilitate subsequent analysis and inter comparison of the datasets.<br />
<br />
Bottle parameters in the master file were taken from the GT-C_Bottle_GT10, GT-C_Bottle_GT11, ODF_Bottle_GT10, and ODF_Bottle_GT11 datasets. Non-bottle parameters, including those from GeoFish tows, Aerosol sampling, and McLane Pumps, were taken from the Event_Log_GT10 and Event_Log_GT11 datasets. McLane pump cast numbers missing in event logs were taken from the Particulate Th-234 dataset submitted by Ken Buesseler.<br />
<br />
A standardized BCO-DMO method (called "join") was then used to merge the missing parameters to each US GEOTRACES dataset, most often by matching on sample_GEOTRC or on some unique combination of other parameters.<br />
<br />
If the master parameters were included in the original data file and the values did not differ from the master file, the original data columns were retained and the names of the parameters were changed from the PI-submitted names to the standardized master names. If there were differences between the PI-supplied parameter values and those in the master file, both columns were retained. If the original data submission included all of the master parameters, no additional columns were added, but parameter names were modified to match the naming conventions of the master file.<br />
<br />
See the dataset parameters documentation for a description of which parameters were supplied by the PI and which were added via the join method.</p>
