Description

This dataset contains data from samples analyzed at Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory (LDEO). Additional dissolved REE data are reported by Oregon State University (OSU) in a separate dataset (see 'Related Datasets').

Methods & Sampling

Dataset acquisition description

Samples were filtered, acidified, and split at sea. Samples were collected by Niskin bottle. Refer to the cruise report for more information on cruise operations (http://dmoserv3.whoi.edu/data_docs/GEOTRACES/Arctic/ARC01-report.pdf).

For REE concentration analyses, aliquots of 50 mL were taken from each sample. About 12 mL of each sample was then weighed and 30-300 mg of a mixed REE spike enriched in ¹⁴²Ce, ¹⁴⁵Nd, ¹⁴⁹Sm, ¹⁵³Eu, ¹⁵⁵Gd, ¹⁶¹Dy, ¹⁶⁷Er, and ¹⁷¹Yb was added. Samples were then preconcentrated offline using a SeaFast PICO system (ESI) following the methodology described in Behrens et al., 2016 and Wu et al., 2020. Resulting solutions were analyzed at Lamont Doherty Earth Observatory (Palisades, NY) using a Nu Attom ES HR-ICP-MS.

Data Processing Description

Dataset Processing Description

Data Processing:
Dissolved concentrations were determined by a combination of isotope dilution (Ce, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Dy, Er, and Yb) and for La, Lu and the mono‐isotopic elements Pr, Tb, Ho, and Tm, their concentrations are calculated by comparing their intensities to intensities of non-spiked isotopes of the elements calculated by isotope dilution. We employed the REE Calculation Workbook published by Wu et al., 2020 to calculate the REE abundances. Precision was determined by repeated analyzes of seawater from a GEOTRACES intercalibration station Bermuda Atlantic Time Series (BATS; 31.7°N, 64.1°W) in the North Atlantic at 20 m and 2,000 m.

Known Problems/Issues:
Gaps in REE concentrations data are due to missing samples, data is flagged with QV:IODE code 9, missing value.

Quality Flags:
Data quality flags have been applied following the IODE scheme, defined as:
1 = good;
2 = not evaluated, not available, or unknown;
3 = questionable/suspect;
4 = bad;
9 = missing data.

BCO-DMO Processing:
- renamed fields;
- replaced "N/A#" with missing data identifier of "nd";
- added ISO8601 date/time fields.

Instruments

Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer

Supplied Name: High Resolution Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer (HR-ICP-MS)

Supplied Description:

High Resolution Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer (HR-ICP-MS). Attom ES (Nu Instruments). Rare earth element dissolved concentrations were analyzed at Lamont Doherty Earth Observatory using a Nu Attom ES HR-ICP-MS. The HR-ICP-MS is a type of mass spectrometry that uses an inductively couple plasma to ionize a liquid sample. The ions of specific mass-to-charge ratios are then quantified in a mass spectrometer.

Instrument Type

Generic Name: Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer

Acronym: ICP Mass Spec

Community Identifier: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L05/current/LAB15/

Generic Description:

An ICP Mass Spec is an instrument that passes nebulized samples into an inductively-coupled gas plasma (8-10000 K) where they are atomized and ionized. Ions of specific mass-to-charge ratios are quantified in a quadrupole mass spectrometer.

Niskin bottle

Supplied Name: Niskin

Supplied Description:

Instrument Type

Generic Name: Niskin bottle

Community Identifier: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L22/current/TOOL0412/

Generic Description:

A Niskin bottle (a next generation water sampler based on the Nansen bottle) is a cylindrical, non-metallic water collection device with stoppers at both ends. The bottles can be attached individually on a hydrowire or deployed in 12, 24, or 36 bottle Rosette systems mounted on a frame and combined with a CTD. Niskin bottles are used to collect discrete water samples for a range of measurements including pigments, nutrients, plankton, etc.

SeaFAST Automated Preconcentration System

Supplied Name: SeaFast PICO system (ESI)

Supplied Description:

SeaFast Automated Preconcentration System for Undiluted Seawater. Elemental Scientific Inc. (ESI), Omaha, Nebraska, USA. Rare earth element were preconcentrated using a commercially available preconcentration unit that separates the REEs.

Instrument Type

Generic Name: SeaFAST Automated Preconcentration System

Generic Description:

The seaFAST is an automated sample introduction system for analysis of seawater and other high matrix samples for analyses by ICPMS (Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry).
