"Be-7 Aerosol:  
 Aerosol samples were collected between Sept 20, 2018 and Nov 23, 2018 during
the U.S. GEOTRACES PMT cruise, R/V Roger Revelle (RR1814), 18 September 2018 -
24 November 2018, Seattle, Washington - Papeete, Tahiti, French Polynesia
(with a port stop in Hilo, Hawaii, 21-25, October 2018). Aerosol samples were
obtained with a Tisch TE-5170V-BL high volume aerosol sampler, modified to
collect 12 replicate samples on acid-washed (Wallace et al, 1977; Baker et
al., 2006) 47mm diameter Whatman-41 (W-41) filters, using procedures of the US
GEOTRACES aerosol program (Morton et al., 2013). In order to minimize the
filter blanks for our experiment, the W-41 filters were pre-cleaned before
deployment using three cycles of leaching with 0.5M HCl (Optima) then rinsing
with ultra-high purity water (UHP water) according to trace element protocols
in a HEPA-filtered laminar flow hood (Morton et al., 2013; similar to Baker et
al., 2006).
 
For 7Be, three of the 47mm aerosol samples were stacked in a plastic Petri
dish and counted by gamma spectroscopy. Be-7 has a readily identifiable gamma
peak at 478 keV. The counting system was calibrated for all samples by
preparing a commercial standard in geometry identical to the samples.
 
Be-7 Seawater:  
 A weighted sampling hose, attached to a submersible pump with a portable ctd
was deployed over the aft of the ship to collect seawater for Be-7 analysis.
The seawater was collected in plastic 700 liter holding tanks and then passed
through iron-oxide impregnated acrylic fiber filters (adsorbs Be-7). The
efficiency of the fiber for extraction of Be from seawater was determined by
adding stable Be atomic absorption standards to a drum containing seawater,
pumping the water through an iron fiber cartridge, and at every 100 L
measuring the Be content of the cartridge effluent. Based on several trials,
it was found that for sample volumes in the range 400-700L, extraction
efficiencies are respectively, 82 \\u00b1 3% to 76 \\u00b1 2%.\\u00a0
 
All fibers were returned to the lab where they were dried and ashed. Fiber
samples were pressed into pellets. All samples were then placed over a low
background germanium gamma detector. 7Be has a readily identifiable peak at
478keV. The detector is calibrated for these samples by adding a commercially
prepared mixed solution of known gamma activities to ashed fiber and counting
in the appropriate geometry.";

"A 60-day research cruise took place in 2018 along a transect form Alaska to Tahiti at 152° W. A description of the project titled \"Collaborative Research: Management and implementation of the US GEOTRACES Pacific Meridional Transect\", funded by NSF, is below. Further project information is available on the US GEOTRACES website and on the cruise blog. A detailed cruise report is also available as a PDF.
Description from NSF award abstract:
GEOTRACES is a global effort in the field of Chemical Oceanography in which the United States plays a major role. The goal of the GEOTRACES program is to understand the distributions of many elements and their isotopes in the ocean. Until quite recently, these elements could not be measured at a global scale. Understanding the distributions of these elements and isotopes will increase the understanding of processes that shape their distributions and also the processes that depend on these elements. For example, many \"trace elements\" (elements that are present in very low amounts) are also important for life, and their presence or absence can play a vital role in the population of marine ecosystems. This project will launch the next major U.S. GEOTRACES expedition in the Pacific Ocean between Alaska and Tahiti. The award made here would support all of the major infrastructure for this expedition, including the research vessel, the sampling equipment, and some of the core oceanographic measurements. This project will also support the personnel needed to lead the expedition and collect the samples.
This project would support the essential sampling operations and infrastructure for the U.S. GEOTRACES Pacific Meridional Transect along 152° W to support a large variety of individual science projects on trace element and isotope (TEI) biogeochemistry that will follow. Thus, the major objectives of this management proposal are: (1) plan and coordinate a 60 day research cruise in 2018; (2) obtain representative samples for a wide variety of TEIs using a conventional CTD/rosette, GEOTRACES Trace Element Sampling Systems, and in situ pumps; (3) acquire conventional CTD hydrographic data along with discrete samples for salinity, dissolved oxygen, algal pigments, and dissolved nutrients at micro- and nanomolar levels; (4) ensure that proper QA/QC protocols are followed and reported, as well as fulfilling all GEOTRACES intercalibration protocols; (5) prepare and deliver all hydrographic data to the GEOTRACES Data Assembly Centre (via the US BCO-DMO data center); and (6) coordinate all cruise communications between investigators, including preparation of a hydrographic report/publication. This project would also provide baseline measurements of TEIs in the Clarion-Clipperton fracture zone (~7.5°N-17°N, ~155°W-115°W) where large-scale deep sea mining is planned. Environmental impact assessments are underway in partnership with the mining industry, but the effect of mining activities on TEIs in the water column is one that could be uniquely assessed by the GEOTRACES community. In support of efforts to communicate the science to a wide audience the investigators will recruit an early career freelance science journalist with interests in marine science and oceanography to participate on the cruise and do public outreach, photography and/or videography, and social media from the ship, as well as to submit articles about the research to national media. The project would also support several graduate students.";

"NSF Award Abstract:
The goal of the international GEOTRACES program is to understand the distributions of trace chemical elements and their isotopes in the oceans. One of the stated goals in the GEOTRACES Science Plan is to \"create a unique opportunity for exploration and discovery by determining the distributions of novel trace elements and isotopes (TEIs) that have received little attention to date.\" This is a proposal to make measurements of one such species, the radioactive isotope beryllium-7 which will provide important biogeochemical rate information pertinent to the TEIs that will be measured during the 2018 U.S. GEOTRACES Pacific Meridional transect from Tahiti to Alaska. Many processes in the ocean cannot be directly observed and as such, tracers are used to provide important constraints on their rates and pathways. Beryllium-7 is a tracer that, because of its half-life (53.3 days), allows the study of processes which occur over time scales and depth scales that are otherwise difficult to obtain but which are critically important to studies of biological production, nutrient regeneration, and atmospheric deposition, to name a few. Advances in sampling and analytical techniques, coupled with a better understanding of the behavior of Be-7 in ocean biogeochemical cycles, present an opportunity to fully utilize this tracer.
The proposed work has three main components:
1) Measurements of Be-7 in the surface waters and in the lower atmosphere along the cruise track will provide estimates of the atmospheric input of relevant TEIs. The atmospheric input into the global ocean is an important budgetary component of numerous chemical species, yet is very difficult to constrain. The data generated in this work will be available to allow ground-truthing of models of aerosol deposition and atmospheric input of trace elements.
2) Water column measurements of Be-7 provide a tracer of physical processes, such as mixing and upwelling, which redistribute biologically active species. Given quantitative knowledge of the circulation, mixing and ventilation of the water masses within which TEIs reside allows an assessment of the time- and space-integrated in situ biogeochemical behavior of these elements.
3) The rate of oxygen utilization within the upper thermocline will be determined by water column measurements of Be-7 coupled with collected hydrographic data and observed oxygen distributions. The seasonal timescale afforded by Be-7 is ideal for estimating OUR within the shallow water just beneath the euphotic zone, where the most significant C remineralization is occurring. The project will support undergraduate student researchers at Florida International University, a leading minority serving institution. Lead investigator Kadko will participate in the Nippon Foundation - Partnership for Observation of the Global Oceans Center of Excellence (NF-POGO CofE), a unique platform which aims to provide world class training programs for students from emerging countries. Kadko will be offering an advanced topic course in chemical oceanography to these students during a stay at the Alfred Wegener Institute of Polar Studies. This outreach effort is consistent with the capacity building and educational goals of GEOTRACES as well as promoting international collaboration.";

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.
