Method Description:
  • Total C02 Data:
    1. TCO2 Analysis Method: As on previous cruises, TCO2 was determined using automated dynamic headspace sample processors (SOMMA) with coulometric detection of the CO2 extracted from acidified samples. A description of the SOMMA-Coulometry System and its calibration can be found in Johnson et al. (1987), Johnson and Wallace (1992), and Johnson et al. (1993).
    2. Standardization Technique:
      1. Technique Description:
      2. Sample Volume: 300
      3. CRM Info:
        1. Correction Magnitude:
        2. Batch Number: 333637
        3. CRM Analysis Info: As per standard operating procedure (DOE 1994), CRM was routinely analyzed according to DOE (1994) guidelines. The CRM was supplied by Dr. Andrew Dickson of the SIO, and for the North Atlantic cruises, batches 33, 36, and 37 were used. The certified values for these batches were TCO2 = 2009.85 umol/kg @ salinity = 33.781 for batch 33; TCO2 = 2050.21 umol/kg @ salinity = 35.368 for batch 36; and TCO2 = 2044.15 umol/kg @ salinity = 34.983 for batch 37. The CRM TCO2 concentration was determined by vacuum-extraction/manometry in the laboratory of C. D. Keeling at SIO.
    3. Field Replicate Info:
    4. Poisoning Info: 100 uL
      1. Poisoning Correction Description:
      2. Poison Volume: 100 uL
    5. Accuracy Info: Tables 4 and 5 show an internally consistent data set of high quality with excellent accuracy (< or = 2.0 umol/kg), high single-system precision (< or = 1.0 umol/kg), and a slightly higher imprecision for the sample precisions (1.59 - 1.92 umol/kg). Based on these data, the TCO2 data clearly meet survey criteria for accuracy (< or = 4.0 umol/kg) and precision, and as with previous data submissions, no correction for instrumental bias or CRM analytical differences has been applied to the TCO2 data.

    8. Accuracy Info: Duplicate samples were usually taken for each station in the same manner as for TCO2 (surface and deep) and analyzed to determine and monitor the precision of the MATS. The average difference between replicates was 1.0, 1.1, and 1.1 umol/kg for sections A24, A20, and A22, respectively, which demonstrated the high precision of the MATS throughout the study. A preliminary description of the major trends in the data and the behavior of alkalinity over time in the North Atlantic is given by Millero et al. (1999).
