Abstract

These data include sediment black carbon and total organic carbon concentrations and stable carbon ratio (13C) values. These data were collected on multiple cruises in throughout the Atlantic; specifically, in the Amazon Delta (EN-480; July 2010), Sierra Leone Rise (EN-481; August 2010), Niger Delta (GeoB 4901, GeoB 4903, GeoB 4904, GeoB 4905, GeoB 4907, and GeoB 4908; February/March 1998), Senegal Delta (GeoB 9501; April/May 2003), and Northwest Argentina Basin (GeoB 2814; July/August 1994).

Sediment samples were collected via a 4-barrel multi-corer (R/V Endeavor) and box corer (GeoB; samples previously collected from the Department of Geosciences at Bremen University, see MARUM GeoB Core Repository https://www.marum.de/en/Infrastructure/MARUM-GeoB-Core-Repository.html). Sediments collected on the R/V Endeavor were segmented into 1-2 cm sections, dried in a drying oven (35°C) and homogenized via mortar and pestle; sediments from GeoB had previously been segmented into 1-10cm sections, freeze-dried and ground with a mortar and pestle. All sediments were decalcified using 10% hydrochloric acid and kept frozen until processed. Black carbon was isolated using the chemothermal oxidation at 375°C method.

Instruments:
Sediment samples from the GeoB cores were quantified using an Elementar Vario MICRO cube elemental analyzer coupled to an Isoprime100 isotope ratio-mass spectrometer (IR-MS); sediments collected on EN-480 and EN-481 were analyzed on a Carlo Erba elemental analyzer coupled to a GV Optima 588 system IR-MS. The detection limit of both instruments was 100 ng of carbon.
