Filtered sample waters were stored in the dark in an environmental chamber set at temperatures matching the&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;in situ&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;temperatures before use. Samples from each treatment group were partitioned into six 10-cm-pathlength cylindrical Spectrocell spectrophotometric quartz cells (~30 mL volume each). Each cell was rinsed three times with sample water from the corresponding cubitainers, and then filled without headspace directly from the cubitainers. Each cell was capped with two Spectrocell caps fitted with Microsolv Teflon-lined butyl septa. Five cells for each treatment type (15 total) were placed vertically into a temperature (15°C)-controlled black aluminum block, and irradiated under an Atlas Suntest CPS+ solar simulator equipped with a 1.5 kW xenon lamp. The solar simulator was fitted with a daylight filter (excluding light below ~300 nm) to provide the cells with precisely known, full spectral light. One cell for each treatment type was wrapped in aluminum foil to serve as dark control and placed in the same water bath that provided cooling water to the aluminum block. Absorbance (&lt;em&gt;A&lt;/em&gt;(λ)) in the control and irradiated samples were measured at 250–800 nm at 1.0 nm intervals, in duplicate, in a 1-cm-pathlength quartz spectrophotometric cuvette. At the Tvärminne Zoological Station, a Shimadzu UV-2501PC UV-VIS recording spectrophotometer with UV-Probe software was used, with air as an internal reference and Milli-Q water as blanks. At Skidaway Institute of Oceanography, absorbances were measured using an Agilent 8453 UV-visible spectrophotometer with ChemStation software, with the same parameters as above and Milli-Q water as blanks. The average absorbance spectra of blanks were subtracted from the absorbance spectra of the sample water. Absorbance spectra were further corrected for potential offsets and instrument drift by subtracting the average absorbance at 690–710 nm, before converting&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;A&lt;/em&gt;(λ) to Napierian absorption coefficients (&lt;em&gt;a&lt;/em&gt;&lt;sub&gt;g&lt;/sub&gt;(λ); m&lt;sup&gt;−1&lt;/sup&gt;), using the following equation:&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;a&lt;/em&gt;&lt;sub&gt;g&lt;/sub&gt;(λ)=&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;A&lt;/em&gt;(λ) ln10/&lt;em&gt;L&lt;/em&gt;, where&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;L&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;(m) is the pathlength.&lt;/p&gt; Funding provided by NSF Division of Ocean Sciences (NSF OCE) Award Number: OCE-1635618 Award URL: https://www.nsf.gov/awardsearch/show-award?AWD_ID=1635618 onGoing Jay Brandes Skidaway Institute of Oceanography 912-598 2361 10 Ocean Science Circle Savannah GA 31411 USA Jay.Brandes@skio.uga.edu pointOfContact asNeeded Dataset Version: 1 Unknown Atlas Suntest CPS+ solar simulator Shimadzu UV-2501PC UV-VIS recording spectrophotometer theme None, User defined Materials Testing System Spectrophotometer instrument BCO-DMO Standard Instruments otherRestrictions otherRestrictions Access Constraints: none.

Transforming our understanding of DIC Photoproduction in Oceanic Waters https://osprey.bco-dmo.org/project/744569 Transforming our understanding of DIC Photoproduction in Oceanic Waters <p><em>NSF Award Abstract:</em><br /> Photoproduction describes chemical reactions which use the energy of sunlight to change the molecular structure of one product to another. This process has been shown to play an important role in the coastal ocean changing dissolved organic carbon (DOC) to dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC); however, minimal information is available on the extent to which this process takes place in the open ocean. The main obstacle to obtaining DIC production data for open ocean waters is the inability to measure the small DIC production rates against the large background of seawater DIC. Currently the most common method for high precision measurement of DIC production has unacceptable detection limits to resolve this difference. Researchers from the University of Georgia have developed MoDIE (Moderate DI13C Isotope Enrichment), a novel means of determining low levels of DIC produced in the open ocean with high precision. As part of this project, they plan to refine their MoDIE method and obtain measurements of DIC photoproduction in open ocean waters (i.e, South Atlantic Bight, North Atlantic Ocean and North Pacific Ocean subtropical gyres). Results from this work will provide improved estimates of DIC photoproduction in the open ocean which in turn will improve existing models of carbon cycling.</p> <p>The broader impacts of this project are particularly exciting. The proponents plan to create an exhibit at the University of Georgia Marine Extension public aquarium to teach the general public about ocean color and marine carbon cycling. In addition, they plan to participate in the Skidaway Institute for Oceanography ?Marine Science Day? open house to share their science with the public and incorporate results into their class curricula. One of the researchers is a first-time investigator who plans to incorporate education and training of undergraduate and graduate students in the project. Finally, undergraduate interns from underrepresented groups will be involved in the project to give them research experience and help with retention in a science discipline and career.</p> <p>Photoproduction of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) from dissolved organic carbon (DOC) has been shown to be a non-negligible process in the marine carbon cycle; however, it is still unclear the extent and importance of this process to the overall carbon cycle in the open ocean (blue water chemistry). The major issue causing this uncertainty is the lack of available methods with acceptable detection limits. The high background of DIC in the open ocean (2mM) makes it difficult to measure the photoproduced portion of DIC when the detection limits are high. Additionally, the current best method requires pre-stripping samples of background DIC, which could introduce unnecessary errors by over manipulating samples. This project will develop a new method called MoDIE (Moderate DI13C Isotope Enrichment) to get accurate measurements of DIC photoproduction in the open ocean. MoDIE works by enriching a sample in 13C and monitoring the dilution of DI13C under irradiation using liquid chromatography-isotope ratio mass spectrometry (LC-IRMS). By removing the need for pre-sample treatment and introducing a highly precise measurement technique, the researchers will be able to compare their techniques with published methods of photochemical DIC detection and put forth more accurate estimate of marine DIC photoproduction in the global ocean. This will greatly improve marine carbon cycle models.</p> MODIE largerWorkCitation project eng; USA oceans 2023-12-29 South Atlantic Bight, Bermuda BATS, Hawaii HOT 0 BCO-DMO catalogue of parameters from Gulf of Finland chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM) Naperian absorption coefficients Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) Unavailable 508-289-2009 WHOI MS#36 Woods Hole MA 02543 USA info@bco-dmo.org http://www.bco-dmo.org Monday - Friday 8:00am - 5:00pm For questions regarding this resource, please contact BCO-DMO via the email address provided. pointOfContact GB/NERC/BODC > British Oceanographic Data Centre, Natural Environment Research Council, United Kingdom Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) Unavailable 508-289-2009 WHOI MS#36 Woods Hole MA 02543 USA info@bco-dmo.org http://www.bco-dmo.org Monday - Friday 8:00am - 5:00pm For questions regarding this resource, please contact BCO-DMO via the email address provided. pointOfContact https://osprey.bco-dmo.org/dataset/917754/data/download download onLine dataset &lt;p&gt;Surface (1 m) water samples were collected using precleaned 10 L HDPE canisters (Plastex®, Finland) and then filtered through 0.2 μm Whatman Polycap 36 AS nylon membrane cartridge filters, using a Masterflex L/S Digital Standard Drive peristaltic pump with Easy Load II and Masterflex L/S 17 silicone tubing at 100 mL min&lt;sup&gt;−1&lt;/sup&gt;, directly into precleaned 10 L polyethylene Hedwin Cubitainers&lt;sup&gt;TM&lt;/sup&gt;.
