High‐resolution measurements of dissolved organic carbon in the Arctic Ocean by in situ fiber‐optic spectrometry

Here we report results from an extensive survey of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in the Arctic Ocean, which was achieved by means of a high‐resolution, in situ UV fluorometer deployed on a nuclear submarine. Based on a strong linear correlation observed between fluorescence (320 nm excitation, 420 nm emission) and organic carbon concentrations determined directly by high‐temperature combustion, a continuous record of DOC was produced at a keel depth of 58 m along a 2900‐km transect north of the Beaufort, Chukchi, East Siberian and Laptev seas. The DOC record, combined with other physical and chemical measurements, identifies areas where river waters cross the shelves and enter the circulation of the Arctic interior. Fluvial sources were found to account for 12–56% of the total DOC in parts of the upper Makarov and Amundsen basins.
