Methods & Sampling

Sediments samples dedicated to nutrient analyses recovered from 8 drilling sites from up to 427 meter below seafloor. Two ~40ml samples of sediment were placed in 50 ml Falcon tubes and were centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 15 minutes to separate porewater from the sediment. The porewater was collected into vials for dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), dissolved organic carbon (DOC), NOx, and total nitrogen (TN). Samples were stored at 4oC.

Data Processing Description

Colorimetric determinations of ammonium, nitrate, were performed using a OI Analytical Flow Solutions IV auto analyzer. Total nitrogen and carbon (weight %) are measured with a Costech 1040 CHNOS Elemental Combustion system. Filtered porewater samples were analyzed for dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and total dissolved nitrogen (TDN) using a Shimadzu TOC/TN analyzer. Dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) was calculated by subtracting TDN from the sum of the inorganic nitrogen species.

All nutrient analyses were performed at Wetland Biogeochemistry Analytical Services, LSU, LA.
