Abstract

Dissolved Ga and Ba from surface tows from R/V Knorr cruises KN199-04, KN199-05, and KN204-01 (GEOTRACES cruise GA03) in the Subtropical northern Atlantic Ocean from 2010-2011.

Lab-based measurements of dissolved Gallium (Ga) and Barium (Ba) from surface tows from the 2010 and 2011 US GEOTRACES cruises (GT10 and GT11).

STATUS NOTE: These data were significantly updated on 30 August 2016. A volume correction had not been applied to the previous version, and thus all of the original values needed to be multiplied by 0.9805. This correction has been applied in the 30 August version, now available online. There were also some samples that were re-analyzed for Ba with the values revised accordingly. Additionally, the PIs withdrew the Pb data (in the original version) because higher quality Pb data are already available from these cruises.

Please note that some US GEOTRACES data may not be final, pending intercalibration results and further analysis. If you are interested in following changes to US GEOTRACES NAT data, there is an RSS feed available via the BCO-DMO US GEOTRACES project page (scroll down and expand the "Datasets" section).
