Dissolved rare earth element (REE) concentrations from the GEOTRACES North Atlantic Transect (Section GA03) collected on the R/V Knorr cruises KN199-04, KN199-05, and KN204-01 during 2010 and 2011. This is version 2 of the dataset, last updated on 2021-07-28. Column names comply with GEOTRACES IDP naming conventions.

Version history:
- 2016-07-05 - version 1 published at BCO-DMO.
- 2021-07-28 (v2; current) - version 2 published, which includes corrections to data values. Description of changes in version 2: The elements that changed are Y, La, Ce, Pr, Tb, Ho, Tm, and Lu. The concentration changes are about 10%, but vary a little from sample to sample. Thus, there’s not a simple correction factor that can be applied to the old data. For the other elements (Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Dy, Er, Yb), there may be some very slight (<0.5%) changes from the previous version. This results from the use of an actual density correction (based on T & S) as opposed to an assumed density (1.025). The changes for this later group of 7 elements may be considered inconsequential.
