"Sampling:  
 Full depth and super station samples were collected from the ship's rosette.
Samples were filtered through 0.8/0.45 um acropak500 filter cartridges into
triple-rinsed 60 mL HDPE bottles. Demi station samples were collected from the
GEOTRACES Go-Flo rosette. Samples were filtered through 0.2 um acropak capsule
filters into triple-rinsed 60 mL HDPE bottles. Each sample was collected in
triplicate. Samples were frozen at -20 C immediately and stored frozen until
analysis.
 
Analysis:  
 Samples were analyzed for nitrate d15N and d18O using the denitrifier method
(Sigman et al., 2001; Casciotti, et al., 2001, with technical updates
described by McIlvin and Casciotti, 2011). Nitrate isotope reference materials
USGS32, USGS34, and USGS35 were used to calibrate d18O and USGS32 and USGS34
to calibrate d15N. Each sample was analyzed 2-6 times. Mean and standard
deviations are reported for each sample. All samples were analyzed on a
DeltaPLUS XP isotope ratio mass spectrometer, with custom-built inlet
described in McIlvin and Casciotti, 2011.
 
Where possible (concentrations exceeded 2 uM), samples and standards were
analyzed in 20 nanomole aliquots. When NO3- concentrations were below 2 uM,
samples were injected in maximum volume (10 mL) and calibrated using
interpolations between standard curves of 5 and 20 nano moles NO3-. Some
samples contained nitrate concentrations lower than the typical analytical
window (300 nM NO3-), but were analyzed nonetheless. Samples analyzed with
concentrations below 0.3 uM are were flagged as \\\"low concentration\\\". These
samples contained a subset with major ion peak areas (m/z 44) less than 1
volt-second, which are flagged at \\\"low area\\\". Two of these samples are
flagged as having elevated d18O-NO3 values relative to their d15N-NO3 values.
The flagged samples should be treated with caution.
 
This version (16 March 2013) has not been thoroughly intercalibrated with data
from the Sigman Lab. Currently, there exists no detachable d15N offset between
the datasets. However, Casciotti d18O data are approximately 0.6 permil higher
than Sigman d18O data.";

"Much of this text appeared in an article published in OCB News, October 2008, by the OCB Project Office.
The first U.S. GEOTRACES Atlantic Section will be specifically centered around a sampling cruise to be carried out in the North Atlantic in 2010. Ed Boyle (MIT) and Bill Jenkins (WHOI) organized a three-day planning workshop that was held September 22-24, 2008 at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. The main goal of the workshop, sponsored by the National Science Foundation and the U.S. GEOTRACES Scientific Steering Committee, was to design the implementation plan for the first U.S. GEOTRACES Atlantic Section. The primary cruise design motivation was to improve knowledge of the sources, sinks and internal cycling of Trace Elements and their Isotopes (TEIs) by studying their distributions along a section in the North Atlantic (Figure 1). The North Atlantic has the full suite of processes that affect TEIs, including strong meridional advection, boundary scavenging and source effects, aeolian deposition, and the salty Mediterranean Outflow. The North Atlantic is particularly important as it lies at the \"origin\" of the global Meridional Overturning Circulation.
It is well understood that many trace metals play important roles in biogeochemical processes and the carbon cycle, yet very little is known about their large-scale distributions and the regional scale processes that affect them. Recent advances in sampling and analytical techniques, along with advances in our understanding of their roles in enzymatic and catalytic processes in the open ocean provide a natural opportunity to make substantial advances in our understanding of these important elements. Moreover, we are motivated by the prospect of global change and the need to understand the present and future workings of the ocean's biogeochemistry. The GEOTRACES strategy is to measure a broad suite of TEIs to constrain the critical biogeochemical processes that influence their distributions. In addition to these \"exotic\" substances, more traditional properties, including macronutrients (at micromolar and nanomolar levels), CTD, bio-optical parameters, and carbon system characteristics will be measured. The cruise starts at Line W, a repeat hydrographic section southeast of Cape Cod, extends to Bermuda and subsequently through the North Atlantic oligotrophic subtropical gyre, then transects into the African coast in the northern limb of the coastal upwelling region. From there, the cruise goes northward into the Mediterranean outflow. The station locations shown on the map are for the \"fulldepth TEI\" stations, and constitute approximately half of the stations to be ultimately occupied.

Hydrography, CTD and nutrient measurements will be supported by the Ocean Data Facility (J. Swift) at Scripps Institution of Oceanography and funded through NSF Facilities. They will be providing an additional CTD rosette system along with nephelometer and LADCP. A trace metal clean Go-Flo Rosette and winch will be provided by the group at Old Dominion University (G. Cutter) along with a towed underway pumping system.
The North Atlantic Transect cruise began in 2010 with KN199 leg 4 (station sampling) and leg 5 (underway sampling only) (Figure 2).

The red line shows the cruise track for the first leg of the US Geotraces North Atlantic Transect on the R/V Knorr in October 2010.  The rest of the stations (beginning with 13) will be completed in October-December 2011 on the R/V Knorr (courtesy of Bill Jenkins, Chief Scientist, GNAT first leg).

The section completion effort resumed again in November 2011 with KN204-01A,B (Figure 3).

Using tabledap to Request Data and Graphs from Tabular Datasets

tabledap lets you request a data subset, a graph, or a map from a tabular dataset (for example, buoy data), via a specially formed URL. tabledap uses the OPeNDAP (external link) Data Access Protocol (DAP) (external link) and its selection constraints (external link).

The URL specifies what you want: the dataset, a description of the graph or the subset of the data, and the file type for the response.

Tabledap request URLs must be in the form
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/datasetID.fileType{?query}
For example,
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/pmelTaoDySst.htmlTable?longitude,latitude,time,station,wmo_platform_code,T_25&time>=2015-05-23T12:00:00Z&time<=2015-05-31T12:00:00Z
Thus, the query is often a comma-separated list of desired variable names, followed by a collection of constraints (e.g., variable<value), each preceded by '&' (which is interpreted as "AND").

For details, see the tabledap Documentation.
