Other ID: CDR_23

Status: Completed

Organization(s): USGS, Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, National Park Service

Funding Program(s): Biogeochemistry, groundwater monitoring, and environmental assessment (LQ000I4)

Principal Investigator(s): Kevin Kroeger

Affiliate Investigator(s): Grace Andrews and Ery Eitel, Vesta; Aleck Wang, WHOI; Timothy P. Smith, NPS;

Information Specialist(s): Adrian Mann

Data Type(s): Sampling: Chemistry, Time Series: Geochemical Monitoring, Geochemical: Experiments (geochemical), Biological Field Study: Experiments (biological), Location-Elevation: Transects

Scientific Purpose/Goals: Continuous monitoring of surface water and pore-water depth, salinity, and temperature, soil temperature and meteorological data, and pore-water collection for chemistry analysis in a salt marsh study site to examine environmental geochemistry and the impact of olivine amendments on salt marsh environments.

Vehicle(s):

Start Port/Location: Woods Hole, MA

End Port/Location: Wellfleet, MA

Start Date: 2023-06-06

End Date: 2023-12-31

Equipment Used: Pore water sampling

Information to be Derived: Pore-water collections for chemical constituents (including DOC,DIC, Alkalinity, Chloride, Sulfate) and multi-parameter YSI measurements.

Summary of Activity and Data Gathered: Collected 51 Porewater samples for chemical analyses. Sediment cores were collected for soil chemistry, biomass and microbial analyses. All field notes, raw data and associated information are located on a shared location on sharepoint (https://doimspp.sharepoint.com/sites/usgs-wetlandCDR).
