Café Thorium has archived the remains of what was once the largest collection of large volume(50 liter) open ocean water samples in the world. These were collected mostly between 1950 and 1980 with Bodman samplers or the ship’s clean seawater intake. Most have been disposed of due to lack of storage space and these last 850 cannot be stored indefinitely. If you have an interest in analyzing any of these please contact Ken Buesseler (kbuesseler@whoi.edu). They can be yours for the cost of shipping and an acknowledgement in any published results.
