Description:

Abstract:

This portion of the data release presents stable carbon isotopes of rock samples collected from Von Damm vent field, Mid-Cayman Rise, in the Caribbean Sea. These data were collected in 2020 (USGS Field Activity 2020-602-FA).

Purpose:

These data serve to expand the knowledge and statistics for deep ocean marine mineral occurrences and composition within the global ocean.

Supplemental_Information:

Funding for this research is acknowledged from the U.S. Geological Survey Coastal and Marine Hazards and Resources Program, through the U.S. Geological Survey Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center.
Additional information about the USGS field activities from which these data were derived is available online at: https://cmgds.marine.usgs.gov/fan_info.php?fan=2020-602-FA Any use of trade, product, or firm names is for descriptive purposes only and does not imply endorsement by the U.S. Government.

Data_Quality_Information:

Attribute_Accuracy:

Attribute_Accuracy_Report:

Carbon isotopes were tested for accuracy by analyzing an oxalic acid standard (NBS Oxalic Acid I, NIST-SRM-4990).

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 horizontal accuracy for each sample was obtained from the ROV's Ultra Short Baseline Positioning System (USBL) navigation after calibration to the CASIUS (Calibration of Attitude Sensors In USBL Systems) calibration system. Accuracy for this depth is approximately 10- 20 m.

Vertical_Positional_Accuracy:

Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report:

The vertical accuracy was determined using multiple DVLs (Doppler Velocity Loggers) on the ROV, which are accurate to less than 1 m.

Lineage:

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

Samples are rocks and were collected by the ROV's manipulator arm. Once recovered shipboard photographed and returned to shore. Amy Gartman attended 2020-602-FA, cruise name AT42-22.

Process_Date: 20200114

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

At USGS, bulk samples and subsamples were collected from relevant regions of the rocks.

Process_Date: 20200801
Source_Produced_Citation_Abbreviation: samples

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

Powdered samples analyzed for total inorganic carbon (TIC) at PCMSC. Samples with sufficient TIC were sent to the National Ocean Sciences Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (NOSAMS) facility, Woods Hole, Massachusetts, for carbon isotope analyses.
