Methodology:

Prior to the extraction, we freeze-dried, ground and sieved sediment samples
to less than 125 \u03bcm (Ruttenberg 1992). For a given sample, we weighed
four sample replicates (2 g) and placed each in 250 mL HDPE bottles. Sodium
dithionite (F.W. 147.12 g/mol; 7.4 g) was added to each sample split, followed
by 200 mL of citrate-bicarbonate solution (pH 7.6). This step produces
effervescence, so the solution should be added slowly to the sample. We shook
samples for 8 h and then centrifuged them at 3,700 rpm for 15 min. We filtered
the supernatants with a 0.4 \u03bcm polycarbonate filter. We took 20 mL
aliquots from the filtrate for each sample split for MRP and total P analyses,
and kept them refrigerated until analysis within 24 h. We added 200 mL of
ultrapure water to the solid residue for each sample split as a wash step
after the above reductive step, shook samples for 2 h, and then centrifuged
them at 3,700 rpm for 15 min. We filtered the supernatants with 0.4 \u03bcm
polycarbonate filters and set aside 20 mL of filtrate from each sample split
for MRP and total P analyses. We then extracted the solid sample residues in
200 mL of sodium acetate buffer (pH 4.0) for 6 h. At the end of this
extraction step, we centrifuged the bottles at 3,700 rpm for 15 min, filtered
the supernatants with 0.4 \u03bcm polycarbonate filters and took a 20 mL
aliquot of filtrate from each sample split for MRP and total P analyses. We
added 200 mL of ultrapure water to the solid residue for each sample split as
a wash step, shook samples for 2 h, and then centrifuged them at 3,700 rpm for
15 min. We filtered the supernatants with 0.4 \u03bcm polycarbonate filters
and set aside 20 mL of filtrate from each sample split for MRP and total P
analyses. We repeated the water rinse step, and collected aliquots for MRP and
total P analyses as in the previous steps. The concentrations of TP were
determined as described below.

Solid sediment sample residues following the pretreatment described above were
transferred to two 50 mL centrifuge tubes (2 sample replicates combined per
tube). We added 20 mL of 0.25 M NaOH + 0.05 M Na2EDTA solution to each tube,
vortexed until all sediment was resuspended and then shook samples for 6 h at
room temperature (Cade-Menun et al. 2005). We used a solid to solution ratio
of 1:5 for this step to minimize the amount of freeze-dried material that will
need to be dissolved for the 31P NMR experiments. Large amounts of salts from
the NaOH-EDTA concentrated in NMR samples lead to higher viscosity and
increase line broadening on NMR spectra (Cade-Menun and Liu 2013). We chose an
extraction time of 6 h to improve total P recovery while limiting the
degradation of natural P compounds in the sample. At the end of the
extraction, samples were centrifuged at 3,700 rpm for 15 min and supernatants
decanted into 50 mL centrifuge tubes. We collected a 500 \u03bcL aliquot from
each sample, which we diluted with 4.5 mL of ultrapure water. These were
refrigerated until analysis for total P content on the ICP-OES. The sample
residues and supernatants were frozen on a slant to maximize the exposed
surface area during the lyophilization step; this was done immediately after
the removal of the 500 \u03bcL aliquot. Once completely frozen, the uncapped
tubes containing supernatants and residues were freeze-dried over the course
of 48 h. Each tube was covered with parafilm with small holes from a tack to
minimize contamination. Freeze-dried supernatants from identical sample splits
were combined and dissolved in 500 \u03bcL each of ultrapure water, D2O, NaOH-
EDTA and 10 M NaOH prior to 31P NMR analysis. The D2O is required as signal
lock in the spectrometer (Cade-Menun and Liu 2013). Sample pH was maintained
at a pH > 12 to optimize peak separation (Cade-Menun 2005; Cade-Menun and Liu
2013). Sample pH was assessed with a glass electrode, and verified with pH
paper to account for the alkaline error caused by the high salt content of our
samples (Covington 1985).

Freeze-dried sample residues were ashed in crucibles at 550oC for 2 h and then
extracted in 25 mL of 0.5 M sulfuric acid for 16 h (Olsen and Sommers 1982;
Cade-Menun and Lavkulich 1997). We centrifuged samples at 3,700 rpm for 15
min, filtered supernatants with 0.4 \u03bcm polycarbonate filters, and
measured P content on an ICP-OES.

Total P concentrations in sediment extracts were measured using inductively
coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES). Standards were
prepared with the same solutions as those used for the extraction procedure in
order to minimize matrix effects on P measurements. Sediment extracts and
standards (0 \u03bcM, 3.2 \u03bcM, 32 \u03bcM and 320 \u03bcM) were diluted to
lower salt content to prevent salt buildup on the nebulizer (1:20 dilution for
step 1, 1:10 for steps 2 \u2013 4). Concentration data from both wavelengths
(213 nm and 214 nm) were averaged to obtain extract concentrations for each
sample. The detection limit for P on this instrument for both wavelengths is
0.4 \u03bcM. The MRP concentrations were measured on a QuikChem 8000 automated
ion analyzer. Standards were prepared with the same solutions used for the
extraction step to minimize matrix effects on P measurements. Sediment
extracts and standards (0 \u2013 30 \u03bcM PO4) were diluted ten-fold to
prevent matrix interference with color development. The detection limit for P
on this instrument is 0.2 \u03bcM. We derived MUP concentrations by
subtracting MRP from total P concentrations.

attribute NC_GLOBAL instruments_0_description String An instrument that performs flow injection analysis. Flow injection analysis (FIA) is an approach to chemical analysis that is accomplished by injecting a plug of sample into a flowing carrier stream. FIA is an automated method in which a sample is injected into a continuous flow of a carrier solution that mixes with other continuously flowing solutions before reaching a detector. Precision is dramatically increased when FIA is used instead of manual injections and as a result very specific FIA systems have been developed for a wide array of analytical techniques.

attribute NC_GLOBAL projects_0_description String We developed and tested a new approach to prepare marine sediment samples for solution 31P nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (31P NMR). This approach addresses the effects of sample pretreatment on sedimentary P composition and increases the signal of low abundance P species in 31P NMR spectra by removing up the majority inorganic P  from sediment samples while causing minimal alteration of the chemical structure of organic P compounds. The method was tested on natural marine sediment samples from different localities (Equatorial Pacific, California Margin and Arctic Ocean) with high inorganic P content, and allowed for the detection of low abundance P forms in samples for which only an orthophosphate signal could be resolved with an NaOH-EDTA extraction alone. This new approach will allow the use of 31P NMR on samples for which low organic P concentrations previously hindered the use of this tool, and will help answer longstanding question regarding the fate of organic P in marine sediments. We developed and tested a new approach to prepare marine sediment samples for solution 31P nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (31P NMR).
