Gulf of Bothnia Geochemistry

https://doi.org/10.5878/fvh9-v644
This dataset contains element concentrations of quantitative element screenings (ICP-MS, 70+ elements) conducted on filtered water samples and the filtered material (cut-off 0.22 μm) from samples taken in the Gulf of Bothnia during 2013 and 2014. The purpose of the study was to observe changes in the dissolved and particulate element concentrations along a slowly increasing salinity gradient. The Gulf of Bothnia was sampled during spring flood and post-flood. Spring flood samples were collected in May and June 2013. Post-flood samples were collected in July 2014. All sampling stations were sampled at depths of 0.5, 5 and 10 m from the coast guard vessel KBV005 in May and June 2013.

Description of the mode of collection:

The samples in 2013 were collected from the coast guard vessel KBV005 with 2x2 L Niskin bottles (Hydros-Bios, Kiel, Germany, which had been custom-made trace metal clean containing only Ti screws, on a Dyneema rope, acid-cleaned 2-L LDPE bottles, all parts acid cleaned) on a line at depths of 0.5, 5 and 10 m. During July 2014, two stations in the Bothnian Bay (GOB1 and GOB2) were sampled from the M/S Fyrbyggaren, following the procedures and methods by (Cutter et al. 2010). Water samples were obtained with 5-L Niskin bottles (Hydros-Bios, Kiel, Germany) on a line at depths of 0.5, 5 and 10 m.
