Summary of Field Work: |
Collection of sediment cores using a multi-core and a gravity core; CTD profiling and hydrocast sampling with Niskin bottles and Go-Flo bottles |
|
Summary of Facility Requirements: |
We need a multi-core (MC-400 or MC-800) and a gravity core (preferably the OSU "Big Bertha" corer). We also need a UNOLS cold (refrigerated) van and a CTD plus 12 bottle rosette. |
|
Summary of other requirements and comments: |
A major purpose of our work is to determine natural 14C signatures of dissolved- and solid phase carbon in these sediments, including DOC (which is notorious for its susceptibility to contamination). It is therefore critical that we have a “clean” working environment with minimal potential for 14C and organic carbon contamination. We will need to use a research vessel that has been swabbed for 14C, and refrigerated vans that have not been used for isotope tracers.
A propane torch will be used in the lab. We also expect 5-10 compressed gas tanks to be on board. |

Explanation of Science Party Requirements and Technician Requirements |
Each science team will be responsible for a particular set of tasks, including coring, core slicing, and porewater collection. 2-4 individuals will be needed per science team to accomplish this. One marine science-technician is requested to assist us with operating the corers and CTD, etc. |

It is critical that we have a “clean” working environment with minimal potential for 14C and organic carbon contamination. We will need to use a research vessel that has been swabbed for 14C, and refrigerated vans that have not been used for isotope tracers.
We also would like to request a 7.0 cubic meter Chest freezer (if possible). |
