©2020 Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office.Particle size analysis, particle size measurement, or simply particle sizing is the collective name of the technical procedures, or laboratory techniques which determines the size range, and/or the average, or mean size of the particles in a powder or liquid sample.
| Dataset Name | PI-Supplied Description | PI-Supplied Name |
|---|---|---|
| Bulk and AA d15N values for ala, glu, and phe from phytoplantkon and grazers grown in lab chemostats | The reactors were monitored daily for 12-15 days to ensure constant conditions, thus minimizing predator: prey isotopic mismatch, and samples were taken for cell abundances and biovolumes using an Elzone counter and epifluorescence microscopy. | Elzone counter |
| Growth behaviors of diatom monoculture and diatom-bacteria co-cultures in the lab | Coulter | |
| Effect of microplastic ingestion on heterotrophic dinoflagellate functional responses | Abundances of prey, predators, and microplastic particles were measured with a Beckman Coulter Multisizer 3 (Beckman Coulter) using a 100 µm aperture. | Beckman Coulter Multisizer 3 |
| Effect of microplastic ingestion on heterotrophic dinoflagellate ingestion rates | Abundances of prey, predators, and microplastic particles were measured with a Beckman Coulter Multisizer 3 (Beckman Coulter) using a 100 µm aperture. | Beckman Coulter Multisizer 3 |
| Effect of microplastic ingestion on heterotrophic dinoflagellate growth rates | Abundances of prey, predators, and microplastic particles were measured with a Beckman Coulter Multisizer 3 (Beckman Coulter) using a 100 µm aperture. | Beckman Coulter Multisizer 3 |
| Hurricane Harvey impacts on biogeochemistry of sediments assessed using samples collected in Mission-Aransas Estuary in south Texas from June 2017 to March 2019 | The grain size of surface sediment was measured using a Beckman-Coulter laser particle size analyzer | Beckman-Coulter laser particle size analyzer |
| Suspended aggregates of xenic and axenic marine Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus cultures from laboratory experiments conducted in 2016 and 2017 | Multisizer 3 Particle Counter, Beckman Coulter, CA | |
| Sediment properties collected off the Alabama coast before and after Hurricane Sally, 2020-2021 | Malvern Mastersizer 3000: Grain size analysis was done on a Malvern Mastersizer 3000 particle analyzer. | Malvern Mastersizer 3000 |
| Sediment surface elevation, erodibility, and acoustic properties of sediments collected from the Northern Gulf of Mexico following laboratory resuspension at the Dauphin Island Sea Lab in 2020 | Grain size analysis was done on a Malvern Mastersizer 3000 particle analyzer. | Malvern Mastersizer 3000 |
