Major inorganic ions from seawater collected near the BATS station during R/V Atlantic Explorer cruises AE2113 (July 2021) and AE2303 (January 2023)
Abstract:
This dataset includes the concentrations of seven major inorganic ions determined in near surface (approximately 5 m) seawater samples collected from the Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Study (BATS) station during a summer cruise in 2021 (AE2113) and a winter cruise in 2023 (AE2303) aboard the R/V Atlantic Explorer. The major ions in each sample were quantified using a Dionex dual channel model ICS 6000 high-performance ion chromatograph (ICS-6000 DP). This dataset was generated and prepared by Dr. Lei Xue under the supervision of Dr. David Kieber at the State University of New York, College of Environmental Science and Forestry. These data were used to determine the enrichment factor of major ions in primary marine aerosol (PMA) samples and to calculate the enrichment factors of protein/peptides and carbohydrates in PMA samples relative to seawater and the associated seasonal variability. This work is part of a larger study to understand the seasonal variability in the fraction of refractory organic carbon in primary marine aerosol at the BATS station.
