Methods & Sampling

Hydrothermal plumes were detected by turbidity anomalies as measured by an air-calibrated transmissometer (WetLabs) on a CTD rosette (Sea-Bird). Water samples were collected in 10-L niskin bottles by CTD Rosette (Sea-Bird).

Samples were transferred from niskin bottles to acidwashed 50 mL polypropylene tubes. Samples for dissolved Mn (dMn) were filtered through 0.2 um acid-washed nucleopore polycarbonate filters within 1 h of collection. Filtrate (dMn) and unfiltered total Mn samples (tMn) were stabilized by acidification acidification with Optima grade nitric acid to a pH of <2 and stored at 4 degrees C until analysis. All shipboard manipulations were performed in a laminar flow hood with clean techniques. Mn concentrations were determined on a Thermoquest Finnigan Element 2 double focusing, single collector, magnetic sector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (ICP-MS) at the SIO unified laboratory analytical facility. ICP-MS was done at low resolution following instrument and induction parameters described previously (Field et al., 1999). Samples were diluted 1:50 in 2% nitric acid in quartz-distilled (QD) water prior to analysis. A calibration curve was prepared as described previously (Rodushkin and Ruth, 1998) using matrix-matched external standards made with 2% natural seawater stripped of metals by precipitation with Optima ammonium hydroxide. Indium (1 ppb) was used as an internal standard in all standards and samples. Standard additions (Willard et al., 1965) were used to rule out a matrix effect. To confirm analytical accuracy, reference waters CASS-4 and NASS-5 (Verplank et al., 2001) were included in the analysis as samples. Our experimentally determined average Mn concentration for CASS was 56 ± 10 nM (reported to be 51 nM) and for NASS-5 it was16 ± 8 nM (reported to be 17 nM). Six samples from station 1 were collected, processed and analyzed in duplicate. The average standard deviation was 8 nM, which includes variation due to both sampling and analytical error.

Data Processing Description

BCO-DMO processing:
- modified parameter names to conform with BCO-DMO naming conventions;
- formatted date to mm/dd/yyyy; added separate month, day, and year columns;
- converted lat and lon to decimal degrees.

Acronym: ICP Mass Spec

Community Identifier: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L05/current/LAB15/

Generic Description:

An ICP Mass Spec is an instrument that passes nebulized samples into an inductively-coupled gas plasma (8-10000 K) where they are atomized and ionized. Ions of specific mass-to-charge ratios are quantified in a quadrupole mass spectrometer.

Niskin bottle

Water samples were collected in 10-l niskin bottles by CTD Rosette (Sea-Bird). Samples were transferred from niskin bottles to acidwashed 50 ml polypropylene tubes.

Instrument Type

Generic Name: Niskin bottle

Community Identifier: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L22/current/TOOL0412/

Generic Description:

A Niskin bottle (a next generation water sampler based on the Nansen bottle) is a cylindrical, non-metallic water collection device with stoppers at both ends. The bottles can be attached individually on a hydrowire or deployed in 12, 24, or 36 bottle Rosette systems mounted on a frame and combined with a CTD. Niskin bottles are used to collect discrete water samples for a range of measurements including pigments, nutrients, plankton, etc.

Transmissometer

Supplied Description:

Hydrothermal plumes were detected by turbidity anomalies as measured by an air-calibrated transmissometer (WetLabs) on a CTD rosette (Sea-Bird).

Instrument Type

Generic Name: Transmissometer

Generic Description:

A transmissometer measures the beam attenuation coefficient of the lightsource over the instrument's path-length. This instrument designation is used when specific manufacturer, make and model are not known.
