Abstract

Concentrations of Ne, Ar, Kr and Xe as measured by the gas equilibrator mass spectrometer (GEMS) in the SUSTAIN wind-wave tank in the summer of 2018. The results paper for these data was submitted to JGR-Oceans in December of 2021 and are in revision (Stanley et al., 2022).

Location: SUSTAIN wind-wave Tank, University of Miami

See Supplemental files section for "Noble Gas Ratios of Saturation Anomalies" data.

Methodology:

Noble gas ratios are measured using a Gas equilibator Inlet Mass Spectrometer (GEMS) according to Manning et al. (2016). O2/Ar ratios are measured using an Equilibator Inlet Mass Spectrometer (EIMS), similar to that of Cassar et al 2009 but with an equilibator system as in the GEMS. O2 concentrations are measured by an optode calibrated by Winkler. All of those data streams are combined to calculate noble gas concentrations.

Sampling and analytical procedures:

A full description of the sample collection and analysis is in Stanley et al., “Gas Fluxes and Steady State Saturation Anomalies at Very High Wind Speeds“ Submitted to JGR-Oceans in Dec. 2021 (Stanley et al., 2022). Relevant paragraphs from the methodology can be found in the Supplemental Files section of this dataset page.
