Summary of Field Work: |
|
|
Summary of Facility Requirements: |
Funded for one cruise only |
|
Summary of other requirements and comments: |
The project requires a radioisotope clean environment. Samples collected will be analyzed for natural abundance 14C and 13C. We will also need a refrigerated van for sectioning sediment cores. |

The project requires an isotope clean environment. Samples collected will be analyzed for natural abundance 14C and 13C. We will also need a refrigerated van for sectioning sediment cores.
Special Equipment Needed:
(1) A multicorer that accommodates large ID core liners, preferably 15 cm ID
(2) A gimbal stand for a benchtop centrifuge. The centrifuge we plan to take to sea has dimensions of 49x58x31 cm (19 3/8 x 22 3/4 x 12 1/4")
