Description:

Abstract:

This portion of the data release contains geochemical data of sediment subsamples from push cores and gravity cores collected from the Escanaba Trough vent field, Gorda Ridge, in the northeast Pacific Ocean.

Data include major, minor, and trace element concentrations, location information (latitude, longitude, depth), analytical methods, and instrument detection limits where available.

Purpose:

Data were obtained to characterize downcore geochemical properties of sediments. These data are intended for science researchers, students, policy makers, and the general public.

Attribute_Accuracy:

Attribute_Accuracy_Report:

Certified reference materials, including PACS-3 (marine sediment certified by National Research Council Canada), were measured for all reported elements except Ag, B, Br, Cr, Ge, Ir, Lu, Na, Sc. The average relative percent difference (RPD) between measured and certified concentrations was 10–20 percent for Dy, Ta, Sr, Ni, Se, W, and Tm. Higher RPDs (>20 percent) were observed for Be and Hf. Average RPDs were <10 percent for Al, As, Au, Ba, Bi, Ca, Cd, Ce, Co, Cs, Cu, Er, Eu, Fe, Ga, Gd, Hg, Ho, In, K, La, Li, Mg, Mn, Mo, Nb, Nd, Pb, Pr, Rb, S, Sb, Si, Sm, Sn, Tb, Te, Th, Ti, Tl, U, V, Y, Yb, Zn, Zr. Duplicate measurements were made for all elements except Ag, B, Br, Cr, Ge, Ir, Lu, Na, and Sc. The average RPD between duplicate measurements was 10–20 percent for Dy, Ta, Sr, Ni, Se, W, Tm. Higher RPDs (>20 percent) were observed for Be and Hf. Average RPDs were <10 percent for Al, As, Au, Ba, Bi, Ca, Cd, Ce, Co, Cs, Cu, Er, Eu, Fe, Ga, Gd, Hg, Ho, In, K, La, Li, Mg, Mn, Mo, Nb, Nd, Pb, Pr, Rb, S, Sb, Si, Sm, Sn, Tb, Te, Th, Ti, Tl, U, V, Y, Yb, Zn, and Zr. The instruments and techniques used to generate the geochemical data are included in the data table and also summarized below in a Source Citation since data were generated by a commercial laboratory. Limits for each analyte's detection by an instrument are reported in the table. The value -8888 indicates that the measurement for an analyte was below the detection limit and the value -7777 indicates that the measurement for an analyte was above the detection limit.

Logical_Consistency_Report: No formal logical accuracy tests were conducted.
Completeness_Report:

Dataset is considered complete for the information presented, as described in the abstract. Users are advised to read the rest of the metadata record carefully for additional details.

Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:

The locations of push core samples were determined using ROV Jason’s ultra-short baseline (USBL) navigation. Accuracy for this depth is approximately 6-26 m. The locations of gravity core samples were determined using the R/V Thomas G. Thompson’s GPS navigation, which is accurate to less than 5 m. A formal accuracy assessment of the horizontal positional information in the dataset has not been conducted.

Vertical_Positional_Accuracy:

Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report:

For push core samples, the vertical accuracy was determined with ROV Jason’s altimeter, which is accurate to less than 1 m. For gravity core samples, the vertical accuracy was determined with the R/V Thomas G. Thompson’s multibeam bathymetry system. No formal positional accuracy tests were conducted.

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

Push core and gravity core samples were collected on the R/V Thomas G. Thompson between May 24, 2022, and June 13, 2022, during the TN403 Escanaba Trough expedition, which was led and staffed by USGS employees. Push cores were pushed into sediment at 37 locations by ROV Jason’s manipulator arm in water depths between 3201 and 3301 meters. Gravity cores were collected using a gravity corer at 7 locations in water depths between 3209 and 3304 meters. Gravity cores greater than 60 cm in length were cut into sections onboard the ship and labeled ‘X’ (0-60 cm), ‘Y’ (60-120 cm), and ‘Z’ (>120 cm). All cores were stored upright and refrigerated until return to shore.

Process_Date: 20220613

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

In the USGS Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center (PCMSC) Core Preparation and Analysis Laboratory, subsamples were collected from relevant stratigraphic regions of the core. Pelagic clay and organic-rich sediments were air-dried and sulfidic sediments were dried in a glove bag purged with nitrogen gas. Dried sediment was ground to a powder using a mortar and pestle.

Process_Date: 20220620

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

Approximately 10 grams of each sample was mailed to ACTLabs in individual plastic screw-top containers. All geochemical analyses were performed by ActLabs.

Process_Date: 20220625

Process_Description:

Results from lab analyses, detection limits, analytical method information, location data, cruise identification, and location data were combined into a comma-delimited text value document (TN403_SedimentGeochemistry.csv).

Sample IDs for gravity cores are formatted as GC#-section (for example, GC08-X is gravity core 08 section X). Gravity core sections are 'X' (0-60 cm), 'Y' (60-120 cm), and 'Z' (>120 cm). Sample IDs for push cores are formatted as Dive#-PushCore# (for example, J2-1418-PC03 is ROV Jason dive number J2-1418, push core number 03).

The depth interval, measured in centimeters from the top of the sediment-water interface in push cores and gravity core 'X' sections, or the top of the core liner for gravity core 'Y' and 'Z' sections. For example, GC06-Z-0–2 represents 0–2 cm in section Z of gravity core 06; 0 cm here is the top of section Z, not the sediment-water interface of the entire gravity core. Text appended after the sediment depth interval (such as _brown) are notable color descriptions of the material.
