Intercalibraton In Chemical Oceanography-- Getting The Right Number, Gregory A. Cutter
Intercalibraton In Chemical Oceanography-- Getting The Right Number, Gregory A. Cutter
OES Faculty Publications
Intercalibration has a strict metrological definition, but in brief, it's an open sharing of methods and results between laboratories to achieve the most accurate data with the fewest random and systematic errors. In the field of chemical oceanography where concentrations of many constituents can be in the nano- to picomolar range, the salt water matrix can be difficult to analyze, and knowing the exact concentrations, or even chemical forms, of biologically required elements is essential, intercalibration is a very relevant and needed tool. Implementing it is not simple because errors can occur at any step in the process of taking …

Concentrations of heme b, the iron-containing component of b-type hemoproteins, ranged from b concentrations were enhanced in the photic zone and decreased with depth. Heme b concentrations correlated positively with chlorophyll a (chl a) in the TNA (r=0.41, pb did not correlate with chl a in the IB or SS. In the IB and SS, stations with high-chlorophyll and low-nutrient (Fe and/or Si) concentrations exhibited low heme bconcentrations relative to particulate organic carbon (< 0.1 μmolmol-1, and high chl a:heme b ratios (> 500). High chl a:heme b ratios resulted from relative decreases in …
Using Ammonium Pore Water Profiles To Assess Stoichiometry Of Deep Remineralization Processes In Methanogenic Continental Margin Sediments, David J. Burdige, Tomoko Komada
Using Ammonium Pore Water Profiles To Assess Stoichiometry Of Deep Remineralization Processes In Methanogenic Continental Margin Sediments, David J. Burdige, Tomoko Komada

In many continental margin Sediments, a deep reaction zone exists which is separated from remineralization processes near the sediment surface. Here, methane diffuses upward to a depth where it is oxidized by downwardly diffusing sulfate. However, the methane sources that drive this anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) in the sulfate-methane transition zone (SMT) may vary among sites. In particular, these sources can be thought of as either (i) "internal" sources from in situ methanogenesis (regardless of where it occurs in the sediment column) that are ultimately coupled to organic matter deposition and burial, or (ii) "external" sources such as hydrocarbon …
