String acquisition_description
"Sediment samples: Sediment cores were collected from the Cinder Cones site
including a methane seep habitat and vertically sectioned into identified
intervals at either 3cm or 1cm intervals depending on the analysis. To
quantify methane from sediment plugs, subcores were taken vertically via a
syringe with the end cut off to sample 3 cm3 of sediment.\\u00a0 The subcores
were preserved in 2ml of 5M NaOH in a serum bottle and caped with a butyl
stopper for later analysis. It was stored and shipped upside down. Large grain
size led to rapid dewatering of the cores making the concentrations likely
conservative estimates of the methane (i.e. the is a chance some of the
porewater was lost during sampling).\\u00a0 For 0-1 cm sediment plugs, a core
was vertically sectioned and frozen at -80oC until later analysis.
Porewater samples:\\u00a0 Pore water was sampled in situ by placing a vertical
barrier in the sediment, excavating one side and inserting a Rhyzon filter
(0.2 um) into the intact sediment on the opposite side of the excavation. 1 ml
of porewater was discarded as a rinse and then 5ml of pore water was
extracted. These were taken at 2 cm intervals starting at 1 cm below the
sediment surface to 5cm.\\u00a0 3ml were preserved in serum bottles with 2ml of
5M NaOH for later methane analysis. 1 ml was filtered to remove particles >0.2
um and frozen for ion analysis and 1ml was preserved with 0.25ml of 0.05 M
Zinc acetate for hydrogen sulfide concentration for Spectrophotometric
analysis following Cline (1969).\\u00a0\\u00a0
Sampling and analytical procedures:\\u00a0\\u00a0
Methane: Samples were kept stored cold and inverted for both porewater and
sediment plug sampling approaches for methane.\\u00a0 Headspace from each of
the serum vials was injected into a Gas Chromatograph with Flame Ionization
Detector (GC-FID) after a standard curve was generated based on known
standards increasing from 10 to 1000 ppm and the same injection volume
(between 50 and 100 ul) as the headspace of the samples.\\u00a0 Adjusted r2 of
the calibration curve was\\u00a0 1.0.\\u00a0 Response area was measured using
\\u201cPeak Simple\\u201d software.
Methane Flux: Methane flux was measured in 2016 through the deployment of
benthic flux chambers. Chambers were 10cm i.d. cores with a cap containing a
septa sealed hole for sampling and an o-ring seal around the cap. The chambers
were sealed with the caps after the cores were inserted into the sediment to
ensure minimal disturbance to the system. Chambers were not continually
stirred but were stirred by using magnetic propeller system that allowed
gentle agitation prior to each sample collection. Samples were taken on
12-hour intervals to quantify that release of methane through syringe sampling
through the septa; at no point were the chambers opened";

"NSF abstract:
Methane is a potent greenhouse gas that is naturally emitted into the oceans by geologic seeps and microbial production. Based on studies of persistent deep-sea seeps at mid- and northern latitudes, researchers have learned that bacteria and archaea can create a \"sediment filter\" that oxidizes methane prior to its release. Antarctica is thought to contain large reservoirs of organic carbon buried beneath its ice which could a quantity of methane equivalent to all of the permafrost in the Arctic and yet we know almost nothing about the methane oxidizing microbes in this region. How these microbial communities develop and potentially respond to fluctuations in methane levels is an under-explored avenue of research. A bacterial mat was recently discovered at 78 degrees south, suggesting the possible presence of a methane seep, and associated microbial communities. This project will explore this environment in detail to assess the levels and origin of methane, and the nature of the microbial ecosystem present.
An expansive bacterial mat appeared and/or was discovered at 78 degrees south in 2011. This site, near McMurdo Station Antarctica, has been visited since the mid-1960s, but this mat was not observed until 2011. The finding of this site provides an unusual opportunity to study an Antarctic marine benthic habitat with active methane cycling and to examine the dynamics of recruitment and community succession of seep fauna including bacteria, archaea, protists and metazoans. This project will collect the necessary baseline data to facilitate further studies of Antarctic methane cycling. The concentration and source of methane will be determined at this site and at potentially analogous sites in McMurdo Sound. In addition to biogeochemical characterization of the sites, molecular analysis of the microbial community will quantify the time scales on which bacteria and archaea respond to methane input and provide information on rates of community development and succession in the Southern Ocean. Project activities will facilitate the training of at least one graduate student and results will be shared at both local and international levels. A female graduate student will be mentored as part of this project and data collected will form part of her dissertation. Lectures will be given in K-12 classrooms in Oregon to excite students about polar science. National and international audiences will be reached through blogs and presentations at a scientific conference. The PI's previous blogs have been used by K-12 classrooms as part of their lesson plans and followed in over 65 countries.";

Data Access Protocol (DAP) and its
selection constraints.
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.
