US GEOTRACES Trace Element Sampling Facility |
|
As a part of the US component of the International GEOTRACES Program (www.geotraces.org), a sampling facility was developed and assembled with funding from the US National Science Foundation (NSF Grant OCE-0705253 to G. Cutter). It is housed, maintained, and run at Old Dominion University's Department of Ocean, Earth, and Atmospheric Sciences under the direction of Professor Gregory Cutter (gcutter@odu.edu). A peer-reviewed paper on this system can be found at (Cutter and Bruland, 2012), http://www.aslo.org/lomethods/free/2012/0425.pdf
