Dissolved neodymium (Nd) isotopes and concentrations of rare-earth elements (REEs) reported by LDEO in seawater samples collected during the GEOTRACES GP16 East Pacific Zonal Transect cruise (TN303) on R/V Thomas G. Thompson from October to December 2013

Abstract:

This dataset includes dissolved neodymium (Nd) isotopes and concentrations of rare earth elements (REEs) in seawater samples collected along the GEOTRACES GP16 East Pacific Zonal Transect. The cruise was aboard the R/V Thomas G. Thompson between October 25 and December 20, 2013 from Manta, Ecuador to Papeete, Tahiti. Multicollector-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (MC-ICP-MS) was used to analyze Nd isotopes and quadrupole ICP‐MS was used to analyze REE concentrations. This cruise provides a great opportunity to understand sources, sinks, and cycling of REEs in the ocean as well as how well Nd isotopes behave as a conservative water mass tracer. The data were collected by Yingzhe Wu and Chandranath Basak at Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory of Columbia University.

Methods & Sampling

Seawater samples were collected during the GEOTRACES GP16 cruise on R/V Thomas G. Thompson (TN303) along the East Pacific Zonal Transect in 2013. Five liters (L) of seawater were collected and stored in a cubitainer for each sample. The samples were filtered using 0.2-micrometer (μm) Sartobran cartridges and acidified using ultrapure Seastar hydrochloric acid (HCl) to pH ~ 2 shortly after sampling.

For neodymium (Nd) isotope analysis, rare-earth elements (REEs) were preconcentrated from seawater using C18 cartridges (Waters Corp., Sep-Pak classic, 360-milligrams (mg), 55-105 μm) loaded with complexing agent composed of a mixture of 2-ethylhexyl hydrogen phosphate (HDEHP) and 2-ethylhexyl dihydrogen phosphate (H2MEHP), which was first proposed by Shabani et al. (1992). In this study, we followed the methods by Jeandel et al. (1998), Lacan and Jeandel (2001), and Pahnke et al. (2012). Specifically, C18 cartridges were first cleaned in a 0.5 N HCl bath overnight, passed through 10 milliliters (mL) of 6 N HCl and then flushed with >500 mL of Milli-Q water. Cartridges were stored in Milli-Q water after cleaning. 300 μL of complexing agent HDEHP/H2MEHP was loaded on a clean cartridge for a 5 L sample. Seawater samples were adjusted to pH ≈ 3.5 by adding Optima® ammonium hydroxide before being pumped through the cartridges at 20 mL/minute by a peristaltic pump in the ultra-clean chemistry laboratory at LDEO. Cartridges were then eluted with 10 mL of 0.01 N HCl to remove barium. After barium elution, cartridges were eluted with 35 mL of 6 N HCl at 10 mL/minute by a peristaltic pump to collect REEs. REEs were dried and further purified by TRU-spec column chemistry. Nd fractions were extracted from REEs by LN-spec column chemistry and dried. They were redissolved in 0.3 mL of 3% HNO3 for the Nd isotope analysis.

For REE concentration analysis, a multi-element REE spike enriched in 138La, 142Ce, 145Nd, 149Sm, 153Eu, 155Gd, 161Dy, 167Er, 171Yb, and 176Lu (Wu et al., 2020) was added to each sample (~10 mL). The sample-spike mixture was allowed to equilibrate for at least 24 hours and then was purified and pre-concentrated through the seaFast Automated Preconcentration System for Undiluted Seawater (Elemental Scientific Inc. or ESI, Omaha, Nebraska, USA).

Data Processing Description

The Nd isotopic composition is expressed as:

εNd = [(¹⁴³Nd/¹⁴⁴Ndsample/¹⁴³Nd/¹⁴⁴NdCHUR) - 1] × 10⁴

This study uses ¹⁴³Nd/¹⁴⁴NdCHUR = 0.512638 (Jacobsen and Wasserburg, 1980).

GeoFish Towed near-Surface Sampler

Supplied Name: GeoFish

Supplied Description:

Instrument Type

Generic Name: GeoFish Towed near-Surface Sampler

Acronym: GeoFish

Community Identifier: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L05/current/31/

Generic Description:

The GeoFish towed sampler is a custom designed near surface (<2m) sampling system for the collection of trace metal clean seawater. It consists of a PVC encapsulated lead weighted torpedo and separate PVC depressor vane supporting the intake utilizing all PFA Teflon tubing connected to a deck mounted, air-driven, PFA Teflon dual-diaphragm pump which provides trace-metal clean seawater at up to 3.7L/min. The GeoFish is towed at up to 13kts off to the side of the vessel outside of the ship's wake to avoid possible contamination from the ship's hull. It was developed by Geoffrey Smith and Ken Bruland (University of California, Santa Cruz).

Multi Collector Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer

Supplied Name: Thermo Scientific Neptune-Plus® multicollector-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometer (MC-ICP-MS)

Supplied Description:

The Nd isotopic compositions were measured by a Thermo Scientific Neptune-Plus® multicollector-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometer (MC-ICP-MS) at LDEO. The instrument was coupled with a desolvation introduction system (an Apex nebulizer). All measured Nd isotopic compositions were corrected for mass fractionation using an exponential law with ¹⁴⁶Nd/¹⁴⁴Nd = 0.7219. For each analytical session, standard JNdi-1 was measured between every sample. For each sample, the measured Nd isotopic composition is normalized to ¹⁴³Nd/¹⁴⁴NdJNdi = 0.512115 (Tanaka et al., 2000), using the average measured JNd sample of a measuring session. JNdi-1 standards yielded external reproducibilities (2σ) as follows: ± 0.30 εNd units for 50 ppb solutions, ± 0.32 for 40 ppb, ± 0.36 for 30 ppb, ± 0.33 for 20 ppb, and ± 0.42 for 10 ppb.

Instrument Type

Generic Name: Multi Collector Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer

Acronym: MC-ICPMS

Generic Description:

A Multi Collector Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (MC-ICPMS) is a type of mass spectrometry where the sample is ionized in a plasma (a partially ionized gas, such as Argon, containing free electrons) that has been generated by electromagnetic induction. A series of collectors is used to detect several ion beams simultaneously.

A MC-ICPMS is a hybrid mass spectrometer that combines the advantages of an inductively coupled plasma source and the precise measurements of a magnetic sector multicollector mass spectrometer. The primary advantage of the MC-ICPMS is its ability to analyze a broader range of elements, including those with high ionization potential that are difficult to analyze by Thermal Ionization Mass Spectrometry (TIMS). The ICP source also allows flexibility in how samples are introduced to the mass spectrometer and allows the analysis of samples introduced either as an aspirated solution or as an aerosol produced by laser ablation.

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.

Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer

Supplied Name: VG PlasmaQuad ExCell® quadrupole ICP‐MS

Supplied Description:

The preconcentrated REEs were measured on a VG PlasmaQuad ExCell® quadrupole ICP‐MS, which was coupled to a desolvating introduction system (a CETAC Aridusᵀᴹ) that minimized molecular oxide ion formation with a self‐aspirated Apex ST PFA micro flow nebulizer (ESI). For quality control, the LDEO lab repeatedly analyzes seawater samples from a GEOTRACES intercalibration station Bermuda Atlantic Time Series (BATS; 31.7°N, 64.1°W) in the North Atlantic at 20 m (n = 18) and 2,000 m (n = 16) (Wu et al., 2020). For the BATS 20 and 2,000 m samples, long‐term external reproducibilities (2σ RSD%) range from 1.5% to 6.2%, depending on the element, using a two standard deviation filter on the data (Wu et al., 2020). Those elements showing small errors of <2% to ~5% include high (10-23 pmol/kg, for La, Ce, Nd), intermediate (3-6 pmol/kg, for Pr in the 2,000 m sample, Sm, Dy, Er, Yb), and low (0.7-0.8 pmol/kg, for Ho in the 2,000 m sample, Tb, Tm) abundance elements (Wu et al., 2020). Those showing higher errors of 5-6% include both intermediate (3-5 pmol/kg for Pr in the 20 m sample, Gd) and low (Eu, Ho in the 20 m sample, Lu; 0.7-1.5 pmol/kg) abundance elements, and also Pr, Tb, Ho, Tm (Wu et al., 2020).
