Profiles of stable isotopes of silicon in silicic acid from the US GEOTRACES EPZT cruise (R/V Thomas G. Thompson TN303) in the Eastern Tropical Pacific from October to December 2013

Abstract

These data include measurements of the stable isotopes of silicon within seawater, silicic acid expressed in del notation relative the standard NBS28, along the section from Peru to Tahiti conducted by US GEOTRACES. Data were generated in the laboratory of Mark Brzezinski at the University of California, Santa Barbara and in the laboratory of Martin Frank in GEOMAR, Kiel, Germany. Intercalibration was also performed between these same two laboratories. For a complete list of measurements, refer to the supplemental document 'Field_names.pdf', and a full dataset description is included in the supplemental file 'Dataset_description.pdf'.
