Abstract

This document describes best practices for analysis of dissolved organic matter (dissolved organic carbon and total dissolved nitrogen) in seawater samples. Included are SOPs for sample collection and storage, details for laboratory analysis using high temperature combustion analysis on Shimadzu TOC analyzers, and suggestions for best practices in quality control and quality assurance. Although written specifically for GO-SHIP oceanographic community practices, many aspects of sample collection and processing are relevant to DOM determination across oceanic regimes and this document aims to provide updated methodology to the wider marine community.

Sustainable Development Goals

Goal 13. Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts
Goal 14. Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development
Goal 13. Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts::13.1 Strengthen resilience and adaptive capacity to climate-related hazards and natural disasters in all countries
Goal 14. Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development::14.a Increase scientific knowledge, develop research capacity and transfer marine technology, taking into account the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission Criteria and Guidelines on the Transfer of Marine Technology, in order to improve ocean health and to enhance the contribution of marine biodiversity to the development of developing countries, in particular small island developing States and least developed countries
