A single SBE9<em>plus</em> CTD (S/N 831) was used for all casts and was deployed with all sensors and pumps as recommended by SBE. In situ salinity and dissolved oxygen check samples were collected to calibrate conductivity and dissolved oxygen sensors (see <a href="http://dmoserv3.whoi.edu/data_docs/NorthPacific_RDOC/MV1310_Preliminary_Report_2.pdf" target="_blank">MV1310 Preliminary Cruise Report</a>).</p>
<p>The primary conductivity and temperature sensors failed on the up-casts of stations 19, 21-27 and on the down-cast of stations 28 and 29. The secondary sensors were chosen for consistent reporting.</p>
<p>In addition to the 0.0073 second temperature and conductivity standard alignment factor an offset of 0.08 seconds was applied for each station and sensor configuration.</p>
<p><em>CTD Pressure:</em> Paroscientific Digiquartz pressure transducer (S/N 831-99677) last calibrated in November 2012 at the SIO/STS Calibration Facility. Residual pressure offsets indicated that an offset of -0.84350 dbar be applied to pressure sensor calibration.</p>
<p><em>CTD Temperature:</em> A SBE35RT Digital Reversing Thermometer sensor was not used, therefore only standard laboratory calibrations were used for T1 and T2 sensors. The secondary sensors were chosen for consistency. An offset observed in cast 12/3 was adjusted based on data from adjacent casts at the same station. Sensors used: The SBE3plus secondary (T2/03-2309) was swapped for (T2/03-4307) after cast 12/1. The SBE3plus secondary (T2/03-4307) was swapped for (T2/03-2309) after station/cast 12/3. The SBE3plus secondary (T2/03-2309) was swapped for (T2/03-2322) after cast 28/1.</p>
<p>The 95% confidence limits for the MV1310 data mean low-gradient differences are +- 0.00137C for T1-T2 .The 95% confidence limit for deep temperature residuals (where pressure &gt; 1800 dbars) is +- 0.00105C for T1-T2 .</p>
<p><em>CTD Conductivity:</em> Pre-cruise calibration coefficients were applied to convert raw frequencies to conductivity. Secondary sensors were compared to conductivity calculated from check sample salinities using CTD pressure and temperature. Sensors used: The SBE4C secondary (C2/04-2819) was swapped for (C2/04-2765) after cast 28/1. The 95% confidence limits are ± 0.00445 relative to bottle salinities for all salinities, where T1-T2 is within +- 0.01C; and +- 0.000781 relative to bottle salinities for deep salinities, where pressure is more than 1800 decibars. Within the context of having only a small number of salinity check samples, when questionable check samples were ignored, the final CTD salinities (and temperatures) appear to meet a reasonable standard, though less reliable than the reference cruises (P16N (2009) and P17N (2001)).</p>
<p><em>CTD Dissolved Oxygen:</em> SBE43 dissolved oxygen sensor (DO/43-0275) was calibrated to dissolved oxygen bottle samples taken at bottle stops. At the end of the cruise, standard and blank values for bottle oxygen data were smoothed, and the bottle oxygen values were recalculated (changes were less than 0.01 ml/l for most stations). Standard deviations were 3.142 umol/kg for all oxygens and 1.365 umol/kg for deep oxygens. CTD dissolved oxygen ml/l data are converted to umol/kg units.</p>
<p><em>Salinity (in situ):</em> To calibrate conductivity CTD sensors, salinity was determined at the Marine Chemistry Laboratory at the University of Washington’s School of Oceanography. Water was collected from Niskin bottles directly into acid leached, 500 mL HDPE bottles and stored at room temperature until analysis at shore-based laboratories. Samples were collected at the surface and/or mixed layer of the CTD profile and at least three samples evenly spaced below the high gradient region with one sample at the bottom of the cast. Analyses were run on Guildline models 8400B and 8410 Portasal - Calibration is with IAPSO Standard Seawater. Limit of Detection: 0.002PSU.</p>
<p><em>Dissolved Oxygen (in situ):</em> To calibrate oxygen CTD sensors, dissolved oxygen was sampled and measured onboard by Winkler titration using the amperometric technique (Langdon 2010). At least six oxygen samples were sampled on full depth stations from the surface, bottom and major min/max inflection points with-in the profile. There were insufficient bottle oxygen samples of usable quality available from this cruise to provide reasonable assurance of values of dissolved oxygen at a given level from a given profile. Because the final data do match the shape of P17N data, there is, however somewhat more confidence in the shape and gradients revealed in the final CTD oxygen probe data.</p>
<p><em>TOC and TDN:</em> TOC and TDN concentrations were determined in the Hansell lab at the University of Miami. Water was collected from Niskin bottles directly (unfiltered) into acid leached, 60-mL polycarbonate bottles and stored frozen at –20°C in volatile organic-free freezers until analysis at shore-based laboratories. TOC was measured by high temperature combustion (HTC) using a Shimadzu TOC-L with auto injection (CV of 1.5-2.5%), following the method described in Dickson et al. (2007). TOC was combusted to CO2 upon injection and the resulting gas stream scrubbed of water vapor and halides and the magnitude of CO2 detected with a non-dispersive infrared detector. TDN was determined by HTC where TDN was converted to nitric oxide (NO) gas, which then reacted with ozone producing an excited chemiluminescence NO2 species. The fluorescence signal was then detected with a Shimadzu TNM-1 chemiluminescence detector. TON is calculated as the difference between TDN concentrations and dissolved, combined inorganic (nutrient) nitrogen. Four point standard curves using KHP for C and KNO3 for N were run daily to calibrate the response of the high temperature combustion systems. Both measurements were quality controlled using consensus reference materials (CRMs) distributed to the international community (Hansell, 2005). The CRMs were analyzed at regular intervals during each analytical day. Low C (and N) reference water was employed to determine system blanks.</p>
<p><em>Nutrients:</em> Nutrient concentrations were determined in the Marine Chemistry Laboratory at the University of Washington School of Oceanography. Water was collected from Niskin bottles directly into acid leached 60-mL HDPE bottles and stored at –20C in volatile organic-free freezers or at 4°C refrigerators (silicate only) until analysis at shore-based laboratories. Analyses and calibration follow the protocols of the WOCE Hydrographic Program using a Technicon AAII system (UNESCO 1994).</p>

United States Surface Ocean Lower Atmosphere Study
The Surface Ocean Lower Atmosphere Study (SOLAS) program is designed to enable researchers from different disciplines to interact and investigate the multitude of processes and interactions between the coupled ocean and atmosphere.
Oceanographers and atmospheric scientists are working together to improve understanding of the fate, transport, and feedbacks of climate relevant compounds, and also weather and hazards that are affected by processes at the surface ocean.
Oceanographers and atmospheric scientists are working together to improve understanding of the fate, transport, and feedbacks of climate relevant compounds.
Physical, chemical, and biological research near the ocean-atmosphere interface must be performed in synergy to extend our current knowledge to adequately understand and forecast changes on short and long time frames and over local and global spatial scales.
The findings obtained from SOLAS are used to improve knowledge at process scale that will lead to better quantification of fluxes of climate relevant compounds such as CO2, sulfur and nitrogen compounds, hydrocarbons and halocarbons, as well as dust, energy and momentum. This activity facilitates a fundamental understanding to assist the societal needs for climate change, environmental health, weather prediction, and national security.
The US SOLAS program is a component of the International SOLAS program where collaborations are forged with investigators around the world to examine SOLAS issues ubiquitous to the world's oceans and atmosphere.

Characterizing a refractory DOC sink in the deep northern North Pacific
http://yyy.rsmas.miami.edu/groups/biogeochem/
Characterizing a refractory DOC sink in the deep northern North Pacific
<p><em>Extracted from the NSF award abstract:</em></p>
<p>Refractory dissolved organic carbon (RDOC) in the ocean has long been recognized as highly resistant to removal. It has a mean lifetime in the ocean of thousands of years, so it is generally thought of as a recalcitrant pool that is transported mostly conservatively with the thermohaline circulation. But unlike RDOC in the present-day ocean, this vast reservoir has been implicated by paleoceanographic research as a relatively rapid-turnover carbon source/sink involved in past climate changes. Accordingly, the RDOC reservoir in ancient oceans must at times have been much larger than today, and that large reservoir must have been rapidly mobilized to release its carbon to the atmosphere. There is a clear need to understand how RDOC source and sink processes operate in the modern ocean in order to understand its potential role in past or future oceans.</p>
<p>In this project, a researcher at the Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science of the University of Miami hopes to fill knowledge gaps in the RDOC-climate connection. Inasmuch as mapping of its global distribution was accomplished only within the past few years, few solid facts about processes controlling the RDOC pool have been established. One particularly important RDOC sink is in the northern North Pacific. The PI believes that RDOC carried in bottom waters from the Southern Ocean to the far north is conserved, but once in the vicinity of Pacific Deep Water formation there is a rather abrupt loss of carbon. His immediate goal in this project is to characterize the RDOC sink in the North Pacific, an objective that is one part of the larger goal of understanding the role of ocean RDOC in global climate.</p>

Quantifying the Photochemical Reactivity of Deep Ocean Water
https://osprey.bco-dmo.org/project/715720
Quantifying the Photochemical Reactivity of Deep Ocean Water
<p><em>NSF award abstract:</em><br />
Because 70% of marine dissolved organic carbon (DOC) is found in the deep ocean, it is important to determine its sources and sinks to understand its role in the global carbon cycle. Unfortunately, the sinks for DOC at depth remain largely unknown; however, limited data has suggested that photochemistry may influence the removal of deep refractory DOC. A scientist from the University of Georgia will use field and laboratory irradiation experiments to quantify the photochemical rates controlling (1) direct loss of DOC and photoproduction of carbon monoxide, a significant product resulting from DOC oxidation, (2) common optical tracers of organic carbon such as colored dissolved organic matter and fluorescent dissolved organic matter fading; and (3) two reactive oxygen species (hydrogen peroxide and superoxide) that reflect the role of oxygen in DOC photochemistry. The study will focus on the north Pacific, where the lowest deep ocean DOC concentrations are found which most likely reflect the presence of an aged and refractory carbon pool. Layered in the top 1000m above this deep DOC is a concentration gradient that will allow comparison of waters with different DOC concentrations, ages and apparent refractivity. Results from the study will be used to quantitatively reevaluate this basic question that now constrains global DOC models: Does photochemistry have a significant role in the removal of the massive amount of refractory DOC that is pooled in the deep sea?</p>
<p>In terms of the broader impacts, based on established links with K-12 teachers, the scientist and his students plan visits to local schools to present their science, as well as have a website entitled "ask the oceanographer" and maintain a live blog during their cruise. Results from this study will be included into class materials dealing with the carbon cycle. One graduate and three undergraduate students would be supported and trained as part of this project. It is anticipated that undergraduate students from historically underrepresented groups would be recruited via the University of Georgia's Summer Undergraduate Research Program.</p>

<p><strong>Sampling and Analytical Methodology:</strong><br />
A single SBE9<em>plus</em> CTD (S/N 831) was used for all casts and was deployed with all sensors and pumps as recommended by SBE. In situ salinity and dissolved oxygen check samples were collected to calibrate conductivity and dissolved oxygen sensors (see <a href="http://dmoserv3.whoi.edu/data_docs/NorthPacific_RDOC/MV1310_Preliminary_Report_2.pdf" target="_blank">MV1310 Preliminary Cruise Report</a>).</p>
<p>The primary conductivity and temperature sensors failed on the up-casts of stations 19, 21-27 and on the down-cast of stations 28 and 29. The secondary sensors were chosen for consistent reporting.</p>
<p>In addition to the 0.0073 second temperature and conductivity standard alignment factor an offset of 0.08 seconds was applied for each station and sensor configuration.</p>
<p><em>CTD Pressure:</em> Paroscientific Digiquartz pressure transducer (S/N 831-99677) last calibrated in November 2012 at the SIO/STS Calibration Facility. Residual pressure offsets indicated that an offset of -0.84350 dbar be applied to pressure sensor calibration.</p>
<p><em>CTD Temperature:</em> A SBE35RT Digital Reversing Thermometer sensor was not used, therefore only standard laboratory calibrations were used for T1 and T2 sensors. The secondary sensors were chosen for consistency. An offset observed in cast 12/3 was adjusted based on data from adjacent casts at the same station. Sensors used: The SBE3plus secondary (T2/03-2309) was swapped for (T2/03-4307) after cast 12/1. The SBE3plus secondary (T2/03-4307) was swapped for (T2/03-2309) after station/cast 12/3. The SBE3plus secondary (T2/03-2309) was swapped for (T2/03-2322) after cast 28/1.</p>
<p>The 95% confidence limits for the MV1310 data mean low-gradient differences are +- 0.00137C for T1-T2 .The 95% confidence limit for deep temperature residuals (where pressure &gt; 1800 dbars) is +- 0.00105C for T1-T2 .</p>
<p><em>CTD Conductivity:</em> Pre-cruise calibration coefficients were applied to convert raw frequencies to conductivity. Secondary sensors were compared to conductivity calculated from check sample salinities using CTD pressure and temperature. Sensors used: The SBE4C secondary (C2/04-2819) was swapped for (C2/04-2765) after cast 28/1. The 95% confidence limits are ± 0.00445 relative to bottle salinities for all salinities, where T1-T2 is within +- 0.01C; and +- 0.000781 relative to bottle salinities for deep salinities, where pressure is more than 1800 decibars. Within the context of having only a small number of salinity check samples, when questionable check samples were ignored, the final CTD salinities (and temperatures) appear to meet a reasonable standard, though less reliable than the reference cruises (P16N (2009) and P17N (2001)).</p>
<p><em>CTD Dissolved Oxygen:</em> SBE43 dissolved oxygen sensor (DO/43-0275) was calibrated to dissolved oxygen bottle samples taken at bottle stops. At the end of the cruise, standard and blank values for bottle oxygen data were smoothed, and the bottle oxygen values were recalculated (changes were less than 0.01 ml/l for most stations). Standard deviations were 3.142 umol/kg for all oxygens and 1.365 umol/kg for deep oxygens. CTD dissolved oxygen ml/l data are converted to umol/kg units.</p>
<p><em>Salinity (in situ):</em> To calibrate conductivity CTD sensors, salinity was determined at the Marine Chemistry Laboratory at the University of Washington’s School of Oceanography. Water was collected from Niskin bottles directly into acid leached, 500 mL HDPE bottles and stored at room temperature until analysis at shore-based laboratories. Samples were collected at the surface and/or mixed layer of the CTD profile and at least three samples evenly spaced below the high gradient region with one sample at the bottom of the cast. Analyses were run on Guildline models 8400B and 8410 Portasal - Calibration is with IAPSO Standard Seawater. Limit of Detection: 0.002PSU.</p>
<p><em>Dissolved Oxygen (in situ):</em> To calibrate oxygen CTD sensors, dissolved oxygen was sampled and measured onboard by Winkler titration using the amperometric technique (Langdon 2010). At least six oxygen samples were sampled on full depth stations from the surface, bottom and major min/max inflection points with-in the profile. There were insufficient bottle oxygen samples of usable quality available from this cruise to provide reasonable assurance of values of dissolved oxygen at a given level from a given profile. Because the final data do match the shape of P17N data, there is, however somewhat more confidence in the shape and gradients revealed in the final CTD oxygen probe data.</p>
<p><em>TOC and TDN:</em> TOC and TDN concentrations were determined in the Hansell lab at the University of Miami. Water was collected from Niskin bottles directly (unfiltered) into acid leached, 60-mL polycarbonate bottles and stored frozen at –20°C in volatile organic-free freezers until analysis at shore-based laboratories. TOC was measured by high temperature combustion (HTC) using a Shimadzu TOC-L with auto injection (CV of 1.5-2.5%), following the method described in Dickson et al. (2007). TOC was combusted to CO2 upon injection and the resulting gas stream scrubbed of water vapor and halides and the magnitude of CO2 detected with a non-dispersive infrared detector. TDN was determined by HTC where TDN was converted to nitric oxide (NO) gas, which then reacted with ozone producing an excited chemiluminescence NO2 species. The fluorescence signal was then detected with a Shimadzu TNM-1 chemiluminescence detector. TON is calculated as the difference between TDN concentrations and dissolved, combined inorganic (nutrient) nitrogen. Four point standard curves using KHP for C and KNO3 for N were run daily to calibrate the response of the high temperature combustion systems. Both measurements were quality controlled using consensus reference materials (CRMs) distributed to the international community (Hansell, 2005). The CRMs were analyzed at regular intervals during each analytical day. Low C (and N) reference water was employed to determine system blanks.</p>
<p><em>Nutrients:</em> Nutrient concentrations were determined in the Marine Chemistry Laboratory at the University of Washington School of Oceanography. Water was collected from Niskin bottles directly into acid leached 60-mL HDPE bottles and stored at –20C in volatile organic-free freezers or at 4°C refrigerators (silicate only) until analysis at shore-based laboratories. Analyses and calibration follow the protocols of the WOCE Hydrographic Program using a Technicon AAII system (UNESCO 1994).</p>

<p><strong>Data Processing:</strong><br />
Bottle Data Processing: CTD data were processed by Alejandro D. Quintero and Courtney M. Schatzman at the Oceanographic Data Facility (ODF) at Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO). ODF performs systematic standard processes on all hydrographic data sets. The 0.5-second time series data were checked for consistency, clean sensor response and calibration shifts. Shipboard CTDO data were processed using SIO/ODF CTD processing software v.5.6. The raw CTDO data and bottle trips acquired by SBE SeaSave on the Windows XP workstation were copied onto the Linux database and web server system. Pre-cruise calibration data were applied to CTD Pressure, Temperature and Conductivity sensor data, then the data were processed to a 0.5-second time series. A 1-decibar downcast pressure series was created from the time series; CTDO data from down-casts were matched along isopycnals to up-cast trips and extracted, then fit to bottle oxygen data at trips.</p>
<p>These results included a quality code associated with each measured value and followed the coding scheme developed for the World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) Hydrographic Programme (WHP) manual Tables 4.8 and 4.9 (http://cchdo.ucsd.edu/woce_flags.html)</p>
