Pore-water geochemistry of surface sediments retrieved from the eastern continental shelf of the Antarctic Peninsula during RV POLARSTERN cruise PS111

DOI

During the PS111 research cruise with the German research vessel RV POLARSTERN (January 2018- March 2018), sediments were collected with a multicorer from 15 stations, i.e., four on the eastern Weddell Sea shelf at 387 to 663 m water depth, five in the Filchner Trough at 794 to 932 m water depth, and four along the western Weddell Sea shelf at 332 to 660 m water depth. Two deeper stations were located on the eastern Weddell Sea slope at 1405 and 1775 m water depth. Pore-water samples were taken at depth resolutions of 1 cm from 0-10 cm and below 10 cm with a resolution of 2 cm down to a maximum depth of 35 cm. Pore-water analyses of dissolved iron (DFe), manganese (DMn), sulfate (SO42-), and nutrients such as ammonium (NH4+), phosphate (PO43-), nitrate (NO3-), nitrite (NO2-), and silicate (SiO32−) were measured.
