Title: MODIS Science Team Meeting


1
HPLC Phytoplankton Pigment Measurements
Continuation of Climate Quality Data Records
(CQDR) in Support of NASAs Earth Science
Enterprise (ESE) Chuck Trees and Jason
Perl Center for Hydro-Optics and Remote Sensing
(CHORS) San Diego State University (ctrees_at_chors.s
dsu.edu) (jperl_at_chors.sdsu.edu)

HPLC Phytoplankton Pigment Protocols (Bidigare et
al., 2003 NASA/TM-2003-211621/Rev 4 - Vol. V)
  • EOS Terra Aqua Data Products Program - 3,000
    samples/yr
  • Augmentation for an additional 1,800/yr
    (4,800/yr)
  • 1. Van Heukelem and Thomas (2001)
  • Filtration
  • 1. GF/F glass fiber filters (25 mm)
  • 2. Positive pressure filtration
  • 3. Filtration Volumes
  • a. Oligotrophic waters - 3-4 liters
  • b. Mesotrophic waters - 1-2 liters
  • c. Eutrophic waters - 0.5-1 liter

HPLC Phytoplankton Pigment Protocols
  • Sample Handling, Storage and Shipping
  • 1. Fold filters in half with filtered sides
    facing in.
  • 2. Place in aluminum foil envelops, cryogenic
    vials or
  • HistoPrep tissue capsules.
  • 3. Label samples containers with a sequential
    number
  • 4. Place and ship (dry shipper) in liquid
    nitrogen (LN2).
  • Recordkeeping (electronically transmitted to
    CHORS).
  • 1. For each sample record volume filtered,
    station
  • number, date, time, depth, lat
    and long.

Template for Ancillary Data
5
HPLC System Calibrations
145 pigment compound calibration curves with
6-10 injections per curve (870-1,450 std
injections or 24-40 days of continuous running
standards).

Company)

Mixing the sample with the buffer. Heukelem
and Thomas (2001) method picks up in a train
(150-75-75-75-150). It is mixed when injected
onto the column. CHORS HPLC System mixes in
a 2nd vial. Minimized the mixing time, but the
uncertainty increased 3-4. 2. UV/VIS halogen
lamp. Faulty connection at the base of the lamp
which would cause erratic readings. Solution was
to have several lamps in stock to test when the
lamp failed.
