Processing Steps
  • Parameter or Variable: Dissolved Inorganic Carbon; Abbreviation: DIC; Observation type: discrete; In-situ / Manipulation / Response variable: In-situ observation; Measured or calculated: Calculated; Detailed sampling and analyzing information: Samples stored cold and dark and returned to UGA for analysis. Samples analyzed using a SOMMA (Single Operator Multi-Metabolic Analyzer) connected to a CO2 coulometer (UIC, Inc) interfaced to a PC. See Johnson et al., 1993; 1998.; Standardization description: The instrument was first calibrated using a standard CO2 gas (99.999%). Certified Reference Material (Dickson 2001) was run twice at the start of every day, after every ten samples, and at the end of the day. Unless daily drift was detected (rare), then we computed the average CRM for the day, calculated the ratio of the expected CRM value to the measured value, and multiplied all the data by this ratio. In the rare case of drift, we corrected to the nearest CRM.; CRM batch number: 55 58.
  • Parameter or Variable: Total alkalinity; Abbreviation: TA; Observation type: discrete; In-situ / Manipulation / Response variable: In-situ observation; Measured or calculated: Measured; Type of titration: Potentiometric titration using an automated burette with 0.1N HCl in 0.7 M NaCl; Cell type (open or closed): Open; Curve fitting method: Calculated using the modified gran approach (Dickson et al., 2003); TA blank correction: none used; Uncertainty: CRMs were used as primary alkalinity reference standards to back calculate titration acid concentration. This forced the absolute accuracy of samples to CRM standards. Instrument precision (sR, based on duplicate runs of each CRM; n=15) = 1.48 ueq/kg. Sampling precision (sR, based on duplicate samples collected in series from the same Niskin bottle; n=18) = 1.55 ueq/kg.; Method reference: Dickson, A. G., J. D. Afghan, G. C. Anderson (2003).
