Methods
The methods followed in the creation of the dataset, including description of field, laboratory and processing steps, and quality control procedures
Current Methods
Filtration and storage
Samples were collected in amber bottles and refrigerated at 4 degrees C for no more than two weeks before filtration. Samples were filtered through 0.45 uM PES syringe filters into 1.5 ml IC vials and frozen at -20 celcius until analysis via ion chromatography.
Ion Chromatography
Samples were ran on a Dionix IC 3000 with a 5 point standard curve. Peaks were integrated properly and matched the integration of the standard curve, which typically had R-squared values above 0.9999
Instrumentation: Dionix IC 3000
Software: Chromeleon
