THE MEASUREMENT OF DISSOLVED ORGANIC AND PARTICULATE CARBON IN SEAWATER1
Open accessAbstract
A method is described for the rapid determination of dissolved organic carbon in seawater in concentrations between 0.1 and 20 mg/liter. The oxidation is carried out in sealed glass ampoules using K 2 S 2 O 8 as an oxidizing agent after the sample has been freed of inorganic carbon. The resulting CO 2 is passed through a nondispersive infrared analyzer using nitrogen as a carrier and the signal output of the analyzer recorded. Using appropriate calibration curves, the carbon content is determined from the height of the peak. Approximately 100 samples can be analyzed in a single day with a precision of ± 0.1 mg/liter using a sample volume of 5 ml. A companion method is described for the determination of particulate carbon by high‐temperature combustion after concentration of the sample on a glass‐fiber filter. The precision of this method is ± 10 µ g C in a range of 0–500 µ g C. Approximately six samples can be analyzed in an hour.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
