| Summary: | <h2>Bacteria Chlorophyll <em>a</em> in Ice Brine</h2> <p><strong>Contributor:</strong><br /> Dr. Christian Fritsen<br /> University and Community College System of Nevada<br /> Desert Research Institute<br /> Div. of Earth and Ecosystem Sciences<br /> 2215 Raggio Parkway<br /> Reno, NV 89512<br /> Office: 775/673-7487</p> <p><strong>Methods: </strong><br /> Brine samples were collected from auger holes that were drilled into sea ice using a 2 inch kovacs coring auger. Brine that flowed into the bottom of the hole was collected using a tygon tubing attached to a 60 cc syringe. Cholorophyll-a concentrations were determined using the techniques as reported in previous submissions of ice core and water column data. Multiple sample numbers reflect replicate samples taken from the same hole.</p> <p><em>updated: April 10, 2007</em></p>
