attribute NC_GLOBAL acquisition_description String Amino acid-specific stable N isotope composition was determined on samples\nthat were hydrolyzed, derivatized, and analyzed according to Popp et al.\n(2007) and Hannides et al. (2009).\\u00a0 Briefly, size-fractioned zooplankton\nmaterial and target zooplankton taxa were hydrolyzed using trace metal-grade 6\nM HCl and the resulting AAs purified using cation exchange\nchromatography.\\u00a0 The samples were then esterified using 4:1\nisopropanol:acetyl chloride and derivatized using 3:1 methylene\nchloride:trifluoroacetyl anhydride.\\u00a0 The resulting trifluoroacetyl and\nisopropyl ester (TFA) derivatives were purified using chloroform extraction\nand stored at -20\\u00b0C for up to 1 month before analysis.\\u00a0 This method\nyielded information for the following AAs: alanine (Ala), glycine (Gly),\nisoleucine (Ile), leucine (Leu), lysine (Lys), methionine (Met), phenylalanine\n(Phe), proline (Pro), serine (Ser), threonine (Thr), tyrosine (Tyr), and\nvaline (Val).\\u00a0 During acid hydrolysis asparagine (Asn) is converted to\naspartic acid (Asp) and glutamine (Gln) is converted to glutamic acid (Glu),\nthus we also report information on the combined pools, termed Asx (Asn+Asp)\nand Glx (Gln+Glu), respectively.\n \nTFA derivatives of AAs were analyzed for stable N isotope composition (d15NAA\nvalues) following Hannides et al. (2013).\\u00a0 AAs were analyzed using a\nThermo Scientific Delta V Plus IRMS interfaced to a trace gas chromatograph\n(GC) fitted with a 60 m BPx5 capillary column through a GC-C III combustion\nfurnace (980\\u00b0C), reduction furnace (680\\u00b0C) and liquid nitrogen cold\ntrap. d15NAA values were measured on 3 \\u2013 5 replicate injections with\nnorleucine and aminoadipic acid with known d15N values as internal reference\nmaterials co-injected on each run.\n \nA composite source d15NAA value was calculated by a weighted averaging a suite\nof AAs (e.g., d15NSrc-AA = average of Gly, Lys, Phe, and Ser d15N values).\nWeighting was based the analytical uncertainty calculated from at least\ntriplicate analysis of each sample.

attribute NC_GLOBAL instruments_0_description String The Large Volume Pumping System-WTS-LV can be one of several different models of Water Transfer Systems (WTS) Large Volume (LV) pumping systems designed and manufactured by McLane Research Labs (Falmouth, MA, USA). The WTS-LV systems are large volume in-situ filtration systems designed to collect sinking particulates. WTS-LV systems are individual in situ, battery-powered, pumping/filtration units that can be deployed at multiple depths per cast to provide information on how particle flux changes with depth. The McLane WTS-LV series of oceanographic pumps draw ambient water through filters and can pump large volumes of seawater during a single cast. The WTS-LV pumps are designed for use from a hydro-wire and employ advanced control algorithms to dynamically optimize flow rates as material accumulates on a filter.

attribute NC_GLOBAL instruments_2_description String Ion chromatography is a form of liquid chromatography that measures concentrations of ionic species by separating them based on their interaction with a resin. Ionic species separate differently depending on species type and size. Ion chromatographs are able to measure concentrations of major anions, such as fluoride, chloride, nitrate, nitrite, and sulfate, as well as major cations such as lithium, sodium, ammonium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium in the parts-per-billion (ppb) range.

attribute NC_GLOBAL project String Hg_Biogeochemistry
attribute NC_GLOBAL projects_0_acronym String Hg_Biogeochemistry
attribute NC_GLOBAL projects_0_description String NSF award abstract:\nMercury is a pervasive trace element that exists in several states in the marine environment, including monomethylmercury (MMHg), a neurotoxin that bioaccumulates in marine organisms and poses a human health threat. Understanding the fate of mercury in the ocean and resulting impacts on ocean food webs requires understanding the mechanisms controlling the depths at which mercury chemical transformations occur. Preliminary mercury analyses on nine species of marine fish from the North Pacific Ocean indicated that intermediate waters are an important entry point for MMHg into open ocean food webs. To elucidate the process controlling this, researchers will examine mercury dynamics in regions with differing vertical dissolved oxygen profiles, which should influence depths of mercury transformation. Results of the study will aid in a better understanding of the pathways by which mercury enters the marine food chain and can ultimately impact humans. This project will provide training for graduate and undergraduate students, and spread awareness on oceanic mercury through public outreach and informal science programs.\nMercury isotopic variations can provide insight into a wide variety of environmental processes. Isotopic compositions of mercury display mass-dependent fractionation (MDF) during most biotic and abiotic chemical reactions and mass-independent fractionation (MIF) during photochemical radical pair reactions. The unusual combination of MDF and MIF can provide information on reaction pathways and the biogeochemical history of mercury. Results from preliminary research provide strong evidence that net MMHg formation occurred below the surface mixed layer in the pycnocline and suggested that MMHg in low oxygen intermediate waters is an important entry point for mercury into open ocean food webs. These findings highlight the critical need to understand how MMHg levels in marine biota will respond to changes in atmospheric mercury emissions, deposition of inorganic mercury to the surface ocean, and hypothesized future expansion of oxygen minimum zones. Using field collections across ecosystems with contrasting biogeochemistry and mercury isotope fractionation experiments researchers will fill key knowledge gaps in mercury biogeochemistry. Results of the proposed research will enable scientists to assess the biogeochemical controls on where in the water column mercury methylation and demethylation likely occur.\nRelated background publication with supplemental data section:\nJoel D.
