The Dataset's Variables and Attributes

Row Type Variable Name Attribute Name Data Type Value
attribute NC_GLOBAL access_formats String .htmlTable,.csv,.json,.mat,.nc,.tsv,.esriCsv,.geoJson,.odvTxt
attribute NC_GLOBAL acquisition_description String Location

Water collection sites in the northern Gulf of Mexico, particularly at the
mouth of Mobile Bay and Little Lagoon, AL.

Water Collection

Briefly, water was collected from the field using a 5-gallon bucket, pre-
screened with a 200 \u00b5m nitex mesh, and gently poured into 10-20 L carboys
and kept in the dark until returning to the laboratory for same-day
processing.

Terminology

dDA \u2013 dissolved Domoic Acid
pDAa \u2013 particulate Domoic Acid (algal fraction)
pDAOP \u2013 particulate Domoic Acid (bound to organic polymers)
cDA \u2013 Domoic Acid in copepods
POC \u2013 Particulate Organic Carbon

Organic polymer formation and sorption of DA

Seawater organic polymers were formed in controlled laboratory conditions to
verify whether they could scavenge dDA (see dataset [https://www.bco-
dmo.org/dataset/808280](\\"https://www.bco-dmo.org/dataset/808280\\")).
Surface seawater was collected from Dauphin Island (AL, USA) and filtered
through a new 0.2 \u00b5m polycap filter (Pall Brand, USA). The freshly
filtered seawater was partitioned into 1-L polycarbonate bottles and the
initial measurements of dDA, pDA, cDA, pDAOP, and POC were made. POC was used
as a proxy for organic polymer formation. The same filtration techniques were
used for dDA and pDA as described above. Laboratory-reared adult Acartia tonsa
were collected on a 200 \u00b5m screen and gently rinsed with freshly filtered
artificial seawater, then transferred into 2 mL cryovials and stored in
-20\u00b0C until analyzed for cDA. Twenty-five mm glass fiber filters were
pre-combusted at 500\u00b0C for four hours and used to collect organic
polymers. The organic polymer collection method was modified from Passow et
al. (1995); loss of organic polymers via filtration was minimized by
maintaining low-vacuum (<200 mbar) and filtering samples for a maximum of 15
minutes. Lastly, the treatment bottles were spiked with a DA standard to bring
the final concentration to 10 \u00b5g DA L-1 and, for specific treatment
bottles, 30 copepods were added to each bottle. Bottles were then placed on
orbital shaker tables and gently shaken for 24 hours. Controls were not
shaken. Samples for dDA, pDA, cDA, pDAOP, and POC were collected after the
24-hour time period.

Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry method for domoic acid quantification

LC-MS sample preparation followed was modified from Wang et al. (2012) for the
determination of dDA, pDA, pDAOP and cDA. The samples for DA determination
were cleaned and concentrated using Bond Elut LRC - C18, 200 mg, solid-phase
extraction (SPE) columns from Agilent Technologies. For dDA, 30 mL seawater
samples were filtered using a 47 mm glass fiber filter; the filtrate was
collected and acidified with formic acid to yield a 0.2% final solution. SPE
columns were conditioned with one column volume of HPLC-grade methanol
followed by one column volume of HPLC-grade water. Samples were then loaded on
the SPE column and filtered at ~1 mL min-1 using a vacuum manifold, followed
by 10 mL of 0.2% formic acid as a rinse for the sample tube and SPE column.
The SPE column was then allowed to go dry and was eluted with 1.5 mL of 20 mM
ammonium acetate in 50% methanol (pH 8) and collected in a glass tube. The
tubes were centrifuged for 5 minutes at ~1300 x g, supernatant was transferred
into an LC vial with a Pasteur pipette, and stored at 4\u00b0C until further
analysis. For pDAa 100 mL of seawater were filtered through a 5 \u00b5m
polycarbonate filter and stored in a 50 mL polypropylene tube at -20\u00b0C.
Similarly, for pDAOP 150 mL of seawater was filtered through a pre-combusted
25 mm glass-fiber filter and stored at -20\u00b0C. Prior to concentration and
clean-up for pDA, pDAOP, and cDA, the filters were submerged in 2 mL of 80%
methanol and sonicated to ensure cells and copepods were lysed. Sonication
pulses were done for a total of 45 seconds (5 seconds on/off) on a Sonics
Materials Ultrasonic Processor (model - VCX 130) at 75% power. Subsequent
clean-up using the SPE column is the same as for the dDA samples.

An ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) \u2013 tandem mass
spectrometry (MS) system was used for the quantification of DA.The LC-MS
system consisted of Acquity UPLC system (Waters, Milford, MA) coupled to a
5500 QTRAP triple quadrupole / linear ion trap mass spectrometer equipped with
a TurboIonSpray interface (Sciex, Foster City, CA, USA). The analytes were
separated on a Luna C18 (2), 2.0 x 100 mm column (Phenomenex, Torrance, CA,
USA) with column temperature held at 40\u00baC. The mobile phase was water (A)
and 95% aqueous acetonitrile (B) with 0.1% formic acid additive and the flow
rate was 0.4 ml/min. Gradient program was: 5% B for 3 min, linear gradient to
60% B at 10 min, 95% B at 10.1 min, hold at 95% B for 2 min. MS was operated
in positive ion mode. Ion spray voltage was 5 kV and declustering potential
was 80 V. Gas parameter settings were: nebulizer gas, 50 psi; turbo gas, 50
psi at 500\u00baC; curtain gas, 20 psi; and collision gas, medium setting. The
collision energy applied was 25eV. The transitions used for selected reaction
monitoring were m/z 312\u2192266, 193, 220. The transition m/z 312\u2192266
was used for quantitation.

attribute NC_GLOBAL projects_0_description String NSF Award Abstract:
The Louisiana Shelf system in the northern Gulf of Mexico is fed by the Mississippi River and its many tributaries which contribute large quantities of nutrients from agricultural fertilizer to the region. Input of these nutrients, especially nitrogen, has led to eutrophication. Eutrophication is the process wherein a body of water such as the Louisiana Shelf becomes enriched in dissolved nutrients that increase phytoplankton growth which eventually leads to decreased oxygen levels in bottom waters. This has certainly been observed in this area, and diatoms, a phytoplankton which represents the base of the food chain, have shown variable silicon/nitrogen (Si/N) ratios. Because diatoms create their shells from silicon, their growth is controlled not only by nitrogen inputs but the availability of silicon. Lower Si/N ratios are showing that silicon may be playing an increasingly important role in regulating diatom production in the system. For this reason, a scientist from the University of South Alabama will determine the biogeochemical processes controlling changes in Si/N ratios in the Louisiana Shelf system. One graduate student on their way to a doctorate degree and three undergraduate students will be supported and trained as part of this project. Also, four scholarships for low-income, high school students from Title 1 schools will get to participate in a month-long summer Marine Science course at the Dauphin Island Sea Laboratory and be included in the research project. The study has significant societal benefits given this is an area where $2.4 trillion gross domestic product revenue is tied up in coastal resources. Since diatoms are at the base of the food chain that is the biotic control on said coastal resources, the growth of diatoms in response to eutrophication is important to study.
Eutrophication of the Mississippi River and its tributaries has the potential to alter the biological landscape of the Louisiana Shelf system in the northern Gulf of Mexico by influencing the Si/N ratios below those that are optimal for diatom growth. A scientist from the University of South Alabama believes the observed changes in the Si/N ratio may indicate silicon now plays an important role in regulating diatom production in the system. As such, understanding the biotic and abiotic processes controlling the silicon cycle is crucial because diatoms dominate at the base of the food chain in this highly productive region. The study will focus on following issues: (1) the importance of recycled silicon sources on diatom production; (2) can heavily-silicified diatoms adapt to changing Si/N ratios more effectively than lightly-silicified diatoms; and (3) the role of reverse weathering in sequestering silicon thereby reducing diffusive pore-water transport. To attain these goals, a new analytical approach, the PDMPO method (compound 2-(4-pyridyl)-5-((4-(2-dimethylaminoethylamino-carbamoyl)methoxy)phenyl)oxazole) that quantitatively measures taxa-specific silica production would be used.
