Seawater radioisotope (234Th) and carbon from sampling conducted at the Compass Station in Bedford Basin, Nova Scotia, Canada from April to August 2019RAP234 activities or the residual ? activity derived from beta counting after all unsupported 234Th has decayed away. RAP234 was first described in Lin et al. (2016). The residual background counts are reported for total particulates (large and small particle background counts were summed). RAp234_TPT_CONC

Seawater radioisotope (234Th) and carbon from sampling conducted at the Compass Station in Bedford Basin, Nova Scotia, Canada from April to August 2019Uncertainty for RAp234_TPT_CONC. Propagated counting and measurement uncertainties ranged from 8% to 20%. To provide a conservative uncertainty estimate, a 20% uncertainty was applied to all values. Unc_RAp234_TPT_CONC
Seawater radioisotope (234Th) and carbon from sampling conducted at the Compass Station in Bedford Basin, Nova Scotia, Canada from April to August 2019Uncertainty for Th_234_LPT_CONC. Derived from counting statistics and error propagation for sample processing. Unc_Th_234_LPT_CONC
Seawater radioisotope (234Th) and carbon from sampling conducted at the Compass Station in Bedford Basin, Nova Scotia, Canada from April to August 2019Uncertainty for Th_234_SPT_CONC. Derived from counting statistics and error propagation for sample processing. Unc_Th_234_SPT_CONC
Seawater radioisotope (234Th) and carbon from sampling conducted at the Compass Station in Bedford Basin, Nova Scotia, Canada from April to August 2019Uncertainty for Th_234_T_CONC. Derived from counting statistics and error propagation for mass/volume measurements and ICP-MS recovery analysis. See report for additional details. Unc_Th_234_T_CONC
Carbon content and radioisotope data from sampling conducted at the Compass Station in Bedford Basin, Nova Scotia, Canada from February to August 2019Excess 234Th activity in sediments (decays per minute per gram). BD indicates that while 234Th activities were measured, the activity of 234Th determined was within the uncertainty values of the supported 234Th determined for the sediment core. Thus, the supported and measured 234Th activities are indistinguishable. Th_234_EX_CONC_SED
Carbon content and radioisotope data from sampling conducted at the Compass Station in Bedford Basin, Nova Scotia, Canada from February to August 2019Uncertainty for Th_234_EX_CONC_SED. Sediment uncertainties for 234Th activities are the propagation of gamma counting errors and an assessment of potential variability in porosity and density estimates. Unc_Th_234_EX_CONC_SED
