The Ocean Archive System searches our original datasets as they were submitted to us, not individual points or profiles. If you want to search and retrieve ocean profiles in a common format, or objectively analyzed fields, your better option may be to use one of our project applications. See: Access Data

| Title: | Total particulate trace element concentrations from bulk aerosol samples collected during the US GEOTRACES EPZT section cruise (R/V Thomas G. Thompson TN303) in the Eastern Tropical Pacific from October to December 2013 (NCEI Accession 0277437) |
| Abstract: | This dataset contains chemical data collected on R/V Thomas G. Thompson during cruise TN303 in the South Pacific Ocean from 2013-10-26 to 2013-12-16. These data include metal concentration in atmosphere. The instruments used to collect these data include Aerosol Sampler. These data were collected by Dr William M. Landing of Florida State University, Dr Clifton S. Buck of Skidaway Institute of Oceanography, and Dr Ana Aguilar-Islas of University of Alaska Fairbanks as part of the "GEOTRACES Pacific section: Collection and analysis of atmospheric deposition (EPZT Aerosol Collection)" and "U.S. GEOTRACES East Pacific Zonal Transect (U.S. GEOTRACES EPZT)" projects and "U.S. GEOTRACES (U.S. GEOTRACES)" program. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2023-01-23. The following is the text of the dataset description provided by BCO-DMO: Total particulate trace element concentrations from bulk aerosol samples collected during the 2013 US GEOTRACES EPZT section cruise Dataset Description: This dataset contains total particulate trace element concentrations from bulk aerosol samples collected during the 2013 US GEOTRACES EPZT section cruise, TN303, in the Eastern Tropical South Pacific. |

| Supplementary information: | Acquisition Description: Samples were collected using Florida State University's high vol aerosol sampler (Tisch Environmental TSP TE5170V), located on the 03 deck, forward railings. Samples were collected at the rate of 1 cubic meter per minute on Whatman 41, 47 mm discs (cellulose esters; W41) and were acid cleaned. Methods References: Morton, P.
