| Suspended particles from in situ pumps on R/V Kilo Moana cruise KM1910 in June 2019 | A Vario ISOTOPE select (Elementar Isoprime) was used to quantify total C, N, and d13C and d15N. Samples are combusted/reduced at high temperature to create gases (CO2 and N2); column chromatography separates the gases; a thermal conductivity detector determines the carbon and nitrogen concentrations, followed by an isotope ratio mass spectrometer for bulk isotope composition. Measurements were calibrated with an in-house aminocaproic acid standard (ACROS) and four USGS standards (#41, #41a, #65, #25). Analytical uncertainty (determined from standards with natural abundance isotope values) was 0.2‰ for delta-15N and 0.1‰ for delta-13C.
