emergency call system
Turner Designs 10-AU
Re-validation of RR1200Calibration-single point and multi-point (when possible)
Dilution series of standards and samples to test linearity, range
Comparison of QC data with performance metric levels established in SeaHARRE – overall rating “state-of-the-art” Quantitative – Rs, RT precision, solvent delivery precision State-of-the-art – Total Chl a and primary pigment precision
and accuracy, injection precision, calibration accuracy
Comparison of calibration with HPL
Comparison with HPLTo show results produced at GSFC will be
consistent with previous data setsSplit several sets of sample extracts as well as
standardsCalibrations of all quantitated pigments agree
within 6.5% (85% within 5%)Total Chl a agreement = 0.2%SeaHARRE “state-of-the-art” levels
Within 10% for primary pigments Within 2% for Total Chl a
Sample Status3760 samples reported by PIs 1180 analyzed so far
Running sets in the order in which they were collected
NASA PIs first
Data ReportingAnalysis precisionDuplicate filter precisionVarious sums, ratios, and indices23 pigments, Total chlorophyll a, b and c
ACE working group has discussed potential changes to reported pigment listSuggest removing prasinoxanthin, lutein, gyroxanthin
diester from routine quantitation
Developing new HPLC analysis method

Still to be done on the new method
Decide if separation should be improved further Injector program Full calibration Validation
Ruggedness, transferability Linearity Precision Accuracy
Split extracts between 1200 and 1260 Split extracts between GSFC and HPL Replicate filters between GSFC and HPL Use in SeaHARRE-6
