VARIABLES / PARAMETERS:

Dissolved Inorganic Carbon
Abbreviation: TCARBN
Unit: UMOL/KG
Observation type: Discrete, profile, bottle
Measured or calculated: Measured
Sampling instrument: Niskin Bottles
Analyzing instrument: VINDTA CT system
Detailed sampling and analyzing information: Samples preserved with HgCl2 and measured in the lab December 2012 over three days using a VINDTA CT system with colometric end point detection.
CRM manufacturer: Andrew Dickson Laboratory at SIO
CRM batch number: CRM batch 116 and 113.
Preservation method: mercuric chloride solution
Uncertainty: The values were corrected using one correction factor for each day, based on the average value of CRM analyzed at the start and end of each cell. The correction corresponded to 5-8 umol/kg. Precision evaluated from the two CRMs analysed each day, better than 2 umol/kg
Researcher name: Are Olsen
Researcher institution: University of Bergen, Norway
Total alkalinity
Abbreviation: ALKALI
Unit: UMOL/KG
Observation type: Discrete, bottle
Measured or calculated: Measured
Sampling instrument: Niskin Bottles
Analyzing instrument: VINDTA system
Type of titration: Gran titration
Cell type (open or closed): open
Detailed sampling and analyzing information: Analysed on water left over from CT analyses using Gran titration on a VINDTA system, this took 4 days of December 2012. The titrations were carried out before final salinity data were ready and salinity == 35 was assumed. The TA, reported here, was recalculated from the titration data when final salinty values became available.
CRM manufacturer: Andrew Dickson Laboratory at SIO
CRM batch number: CRM batch 116 and 113
Preservation method: Mercury chloride
Uncertainty: Corrections corresponded to around 20 umol/kg. Precision evaluated from the two CRMS measured each day, better that 2 umol/kg.
