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: | Dissolved Po-210 and Pb-210 from GEOTRACES-EZPT cruise TN303, 2013 (NCEI Accession 0278131) |
| Abstract: | This dataset contains chemical and physical data collected on R/V Thomas G. Thompson during cruise TN303 in the South Pacific Ocean from 2013-10-29 to 2013-12-17. These data include depth and trace metal concentration. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD Sea-Bird SBE 911plus, GO-FLO Bottle, and Niskin bottle. These data were collected by Mark Baskaran of Wayne State University as part of the "GEOTRACES - 210Po and 210Pb distribution at Eastern Pacific Interface Regimes (GEOTRACES EPZT Po Pb)" 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 2020-03-30. The following is the text of the dataset description provided by BCO-DMO: Dissolved Po-210 and Pb-210 data from US GEOTRACES East Pacific Zonal Transect-2013 Dataset Description: Dissolved Po-210 and Pb-210 in six vertical profiles from super stations of EPZT of US GEOTRACES cruise on RV Thompson cruise 303. Dissolved Po-210 and Pb-210, dissolved: ≤ 0.45 mm; units: disintegration per minute (dpm) / 100 L of water. The FISH and BOTTLE data have been split into separate columns as per GEOTRACES Parameter Naming Conventions. The data is the same as version 2016-06-03. The FISH data are to the far right. |

| Supplementary information: | Acquisition Description: The methodology is published in Church et al., (2012) and Baskaran et al. (2013) as well as given in the Sampling and Sample-handling Protocols for GEOTRACES Cruises (Cookbook). Chemical Procedures for the analysis of dissolved Po-210 and Pb-210 may be downloaded below under 'Supplemental Files'. We have conducted a large number of blanks to obtain high-quality data. We have also an archived water sample from the Atlantic and assessed the activities of Po-210 and Pb-210 in a known sample. We have developed an Excel Spreadsheet that includes all the corrections (both decay and in-growth) needed to get accurate data. |
