"Sample Collection
Samples were collected on two separate research cruises aboard the R/V Kilo
Moana in August 2014 and May 2015. Sampling was conducted at the Hawaii Ocean
Time Series Station ALOHA (A Long-Term Oligotrophic Habitat Assessment;
22\\u00b0 45'N, 158\\u00b0 00'W) and the Bermuda Atlantic Time Series Site
(BATS; 31\\u00b0 40'N, 64\\u00b0 10'W) in the Central North Atlantic.
Surface water was sampled via the vessel's underway sampling system. The
intake pipe is situated on the forward starboard hull section of the vessel
approximately 7.5 m below the waterline. The laboratory seawater tap was
allowed to flush for 2 hours prior to each sampling. Seawater was pre-filtered
through 53 \\u00b5m Nitex mesh, and pumped through a 0.2 \\u00b5m
polyethersulfone (PES) cartridge filter (Shelco Filters, Micro Vantage, water
grade, 9.75\\\" DOE, polycarbonate housing) prior to introduction to the
ultrafiltration system. Large volume subsurface water samples were collected
using successive casts of a rosette equipped with 24 x 12 L Niskin bottles.
Tangential-Flow Ultrafiltration
The main UF system was constructed using a modified design of the system
described in Roland et al. (2009), and expanded on by Walker et al. (2011).
Briefly, the system was comprised of four-spiral wound PES UF membranes,
having a nominal molecular weight cut off of 2.5 kD (GE Osmonics GH2540F30,
40-inch long, 2.5-inch diameter). The membranes were mounted in stainless
steel housings, plumbed in parallel to a 100 L fluorinated HDPE reservoir,
with flow driven by a 1.5 HP stainless steel centrifugal pump (Goulds Pumps,
Stainless steel centrifugal pump, NPE series 1 x 1-1/4 -6, close coupled to a
1-1/2 horsepower, 3500 RPM, 60 Hz, 3 phase, Open Drip Proof Motor; 5.75 Inch
Impeller Diameter, Standard Viton Mechanical Seals). All other system plumbing
components contacting seawater were composed of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)
or stainless steel.
The system was run continuously at a membrane pressure of 40-50 psi, resulting
in permeation flow rates of 1-2 L/min, depending primarily on the temperature
of the feed seawater. Sample water was fed into the system using peristaltic
pumps and platinum cured silicone tubing at a flow rate matched to the system
permeation rates to ensure a constant system volume of approximately 100 L.
Seawater samples of 3000-4000 L were concentrated to a final retentate volume
of 15-20 L, drained from the system into acid washed PC carboys and
refrigerated (less than 12 hours at 2C) until the next phase of processing.
Samples requiring storage for longer than 12 hours were frozen and stored at
-20\\u00b0C. The UF system was then reconfigured to a smaller volume system,
consisting of a single membrane having a smaller nominal molecular weight
cutoff (GE Osmonics GE2540F30, 40-inch long, 2.5-inch diameter, 1 kD MWCO),
and a 2.5 L PES reservoir for further volume reduction and subsequent salt
removal (diafiltration). Using this smaller system, samples were reduced to
2-3 L under lower pressure (25 psi, permeation rate = 250 mL/min). Samples
were then diafiltered using 40 L of 18.2 M\\u03a9 Milli-Q (ultrapure) water,
adding water to the sample retentate reservoir at the same rate of membrane
permeation. Reduced and diafiltered samples were stored in acid washed PC
bottles at -20\\u00b0C for transport. In the laboratory, samples were further
concentrated by rotary evaporation using pre-combusted glassware (450 \\u00b0C,
5 h). A molecular sieve and a liquid nitrogen trap were placed between the
vacuum pump and rotovap chamber to ensure no contamination of isolated
material by back streaming of hydrocarbons or other contaminants. After
reduction to 50-100 mL, samples were dried to powder via centrifugal
evaporation in PTFE centrifuge tubes. Dry material was homogenized with an
ethanol cleaned agate mortar and pestle, transferred to pre-combusted glass
vials, and stored in a desiccation cabinet until subsequent analyses.
Solid Phase Extraction
Solid phase extraction was conducted using PPL sorbent (Agilent Bondesil
PPL, 125 \\u00b5m particle size, part # 5982-0026) following the general
recommendations of Dittmar et al. (2008) and Green et al. (2014), including
loading rates, seawater to sorbent ratios, and elution volumes and rates.
Between 300 and 500 g of sorbent was used for each extraction, depending on
sample volume and DOC concentration, with average loading of 4.2 \\u00b1 1.5 L
UF permeate per g sorbent representing 1.9 \\u00b1 0.6 mg DOC per g sorbent or
a DOC to sorbent mass ratio of 1:600 \\u00b1 200. This is in line with both the
recommendations of Dittmar et al. (2008) (maximum loading = 10 L seawater per
g sorbent) and Li et al. (2016) (DOC to sorbent ratio = 1:800). Permeate from
the UF system was fed through PTFE tubing to a pair of 200 L HDPE barrels. The
permeate water was then acidified in 200 L batches to pH 2 by adding 400 mL of
6 M HCl (Fisher Chemical, ACS Plus grade). Batch samples were mixed
continuously during collection, acidification, and loading using a peristaltic
pump and platinum cured Si and PTFE tubing positioned at the surface and
bottom of each barrel. Acidified batches of seawater permeate were then pumped
through the SPE sorbent. SPE flow rates were matched to UF permeation rates
(1-2 L/min), such that a pair of 200 L barrels allowed one barrel to be filled
while the contents of the other was passed through the sorbent.
Three custom SPE column configurations were used to contain the sorbent
material. The column configuration was modified several times for ease of use
on subsequent cruises. First, an open, gravity fed, large (49 mm ID x 1000 mm
length, 1875 mL volume) glass chromatography column with 40 \\u00b5m fritted
disk and PTFE stopcock (Kimble-Chase, Kontes) was used. Next, we tested a
custom built high-pressure SS housing (10 cm ID x 3.5 cm bed height), and
finally a parallel combination of 2 medium-pressure glass chromatography
columns (Kimble-Chase, Kontes, Chromaflex LC, 4.8 mm ID x 30 cm, 543 mL
volume). While all designs proved to be functionally equivalent, the latter
parallel combination of 2 medium-pressure glass columns ultimately provided
the best configuration in order to maximize flow rates while simultaneously
optimizing the ratio of sorbent bed height to loading speed. Further, the
commercial availability and ease of use associated with this configuration
made it our preferred design.
Following sample loading, the SPE sorbent was desalted with 6 L of pH 2
ultrapure water at a low flow rate (250-300 mL/min). After desalting, the SPE
sorbent was transferred to a glass chromatography column (75 mm ID x 300 mm
length, 40 \\u00b5m fritted disk, PTFE stopcock) with ultrapure water rinses to
ensure quantitative transfer. Isolated organic material was then eluted from
the sorbent with five to six 500 mL additions of methanol. The eluted methanol
solution was stored in pre-combusted amber glass bottles at -20\\u00b0C for
transport. Similar to UF samples, the methanol-eluted solutions were first
reduced by rotary evaporation to 50-100 mL. Samples were then dried to powder
via centrifugal evaporation in PTFE centrifuge tubes. Dry material was
homogenized with an ethanol cleaned agate mortar and pestle, transferred to
pre-combusted glass vials, and stored in a desiccation cabinet until elemental
and isotopic analyses.
Total DOM
Subsamples for dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and total dissolved nitrogen
(TDN) concentration measurements were collected into pre-combusted 40 mL
borosilicate glass vials following 0.2 \\u00b5m-filtration. Samples were stored
at -20\\u00b0C until analysis. Subsamples for [DOC] and [TDN] were also taken
from the UF system permeate to evaluate mass balance. An \\\"integrated\\\"
permeate sample (e.g., Benner et al., 1997) was prepared by sampling and
combining equal volumes (100 mL) collected at constant time intervals
throughout the ultrafiltration. DOC and TDN concentration measurements were
made using the high temperature oxidation method with a Shimadzu TOC-V in the
Carlson lab at UCSB
([https://labs.eemb.ucsb.edu/carlson/craig/services](\\\\\"https://labs.eemb.ucsb.edu/carlson/craig/services\\\\\")).
DOC concentration measurement errors represent the standard deviation of n=3
replicate measurements. Total DON concentrations were determined by
subtracting the sum of dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) species (nitrate,
nitrite, ammonia) from TDN. DIN concentrations were determined using a Lachat
QuickChem 8000 Flow Injection Analyzer. Ammonia concentrations were below the
limit of quantification (0.36 \\u00b5M) for all samples using QuickChem\\u00ae
Method 31-107-06-1-B. Nitrate and nitrite concentrations were measured as the
sum of the two analytes using QuickChem\\u00ae Method 31-107-04-1-C. The limit
of detection for [NO3+NO2] using this method was 0.5 \\u00b5M and the average
precision of replicate standard measurements was \\u00b1 1.4 \\u00b5M. In the
case of [DON], measurement errors represent the propagated analytical
uncertainty from the subtraction of [DIN] from [TDN]. DOC concentrations
measurements were also determined via UV oxidation, cryogenic purification and
manometric determination at UC Irvine.";

This is essentially a surface water sample from a source of uncontaminated near-surface (commonly 3 to 7 m) seawater that can be pumped continuously to shipboard laboratories on research vessels. There is typically a temperature sensor near the intake (known as the hull temperature) to provide measurements that are as close as possible to the ambient water temperature. The flow from the supply is typically directed through continuously logged sensors such as a thermosalinograph and a fluorometer. Water samples are often collected from the underway supply that may also be referred to as the non-toxic supply.

String projects_0_description
"Dissolved organic nitrogen is one of the most important - but perhaps least understood - components of the modern ocean nitrogen cycle. While dissolved organic nitrogen represents a main active reservoir of fixed and seemingly biologically-available nitrogen, at the same time most of ocean's dissolved organic nitrogen pool is also apparently unavailable for use by organisms. Recently, the idea of the \"Microbial Carbon Pump\" has emerged, providing a renewed focus on microbes as primary agents for the formation of biologically-available dissolved material. However, the role that microbes play in transformation of biologically-available dissolved organic nitrogen is still lacking. In order to fill gaps in this knowledge, researchers from the University of California Santa Cruz will apply a series of new analytical approaches to test the role of microbial source and transformation in formation of the ocean's biologically-available dissolved organic nitrogen pool. Results from this study will address one of the major unknowns of both chemical oceanography and the ocean nitrogen cycle.
Broader Impacts:
This proposal will provide oceanographers new tools to test ideas of microbial organic matter sequestration in a world where the oceans are rapidly changing. High school, undergraduate, graduate and post-doctoral education will be furthered through active participation in lab, field, and data synthesis activities.";

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
