TITLE: BennerSBI2002 AUTHOR: Ron Benner Department of Biological Sciences and Marine Science Program University of South Carolina Columbia, SC 29208 Phone 803 777 9368 Email: benner@biol.sc.edu DATA CONTACT: Ron Benner FUNDING SOURCE AND GRANT NUMBER: OPP-0125301 DATA SET OVERVIEW: Dissolved Organic Carbon and Nitrogen as well as dissolved amino acids and dissolved amino sugars. Reported DON values were calculated by subtracting inorganic nitrogen species (NO3+NO2+NH4) from TDN. Reported values of dissolved amino acids are summed concentrations of 18 individually measured amino acids. Reported values of dissolved amino sugars are summed concentrations of 3 individually measured amino sugars. Concentrations of individual amino acids and sugars will be made available upon request. -Hly0201 data are for spring cruise 2002 -Hly0203 data are for summer cruise 2002 INSTRUMENT DESCRIPTION: DOC/TN - Shimadzu TOCV-CSN Amino acids - Agilent High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) system with a Licrosphere RP18 (end capped) 4 x 250 mm column with 5 †m particles Amino sugars - Dionex 500 ion chromatography system equipped with a CarboPac PALO 20 column and pulsed amperometric detector DATA COLLECTION AND PROCESSING: Water samples were collected by CTD. All samples from < 300m depth were GFF filtered. All samples were frozen until analysis in the home laboratory DATA FORMAT Data are presented as an Excel Workbook. The first page contains all data from cruise hly0201, the second sheet contains all data from hly0203
