Noble gas concentrations from water samples collected in August and September 2016 during R/V Neil Armstrong cruise AR7-02 as part of the Overturning in the Subpolar North Atlantic Project (O-SNAP)

This noble gas dataset was collected around Southern Greenland in August and September of 2016 aboard the R/V Neil Armstrong as part of the Overturning in the Subpolar North Atlantic Project (O-SNAP). Parameters include the concentrations of Helium (He), Neon (Ne), Argon (Ar), Krypton (Kr), Xenon (Xe), along with the co-located temperature, salinity, and pressure data from the CTD at the sample collection point. During the cruise, 391 noble gas water samples were collected, of which funding was available for 86 to be analyzed at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution's Isotope Geochemistry Facility. Those processed samples are archived in this dataset. The 86 analyzed noble gas samples are concentrated along five sections across the shelfbreak on the east and west sides of Cape Farewell in southern Greenland. Noble gas samples were acquired from 10-liter Niskin bottles using gravity feed-through TYGON tubing to fill lengths of 5/8\" copper refrigeration tubing (trapping ~45 grams water in replicate pairs), then each was hydraulically crimp sealed.
