    Description: Alkenone concentration and radiocarbon age in 7 gobally-distributed surface sediment samples and their associated grain-size fractions. Total organic carbon (TOC) and fractional abundance of grain-size fractions from bulk sediments (Bulk%) are taken from Ausín et al. (2021). Analytical precision of Uk'37 is 0.003 units. Uk'37-SST propagated error is ±0.51℃. These parameters were measured to explore the influence of alkenone-mineral associations and hydrodynamic mineral sorting processes on alkenone proxy signals. Bulk sediment samples were fractionated into four grain-size fractions (sand (〉300-63 µm); coarse silt (63-10 µm); fine silt (10-2 µm); and clay (〈 2 µm) prior to lipid extraction and manual column chromatography to obtain a ketone fraction containing the alkenones. The concentration and distribution of C37 alkenones was analyzed using gas chromatography with flame ionization detection (GC-FID) at the Biogeoscience Group Laboratories, ETH Zürich in 2018. The ketone fractions used for determination of alkenone concentration and unsaturation were further purified for compound specific radiocarbon analysis following Ohkouchi et al. (2005). Samples, were measured as CO2 using an Elemental-Analyzer system interface coupled to a gas ion source (GIS)-equipped Minicarbon Dating System (MICADAS) at the Laboratory of Ion Beam Physics, ETH Zürich in 2018.

The definitive version was published in Freymond, C. V., Lupker, M., Peterse, F., Haghipour, N., Wacker, L., Filip, F., et al. (2018). Constraining instantaneous fluxes and integrated compositions of fluvially discharged organic matter. Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 19, 2453 2462. doi: 10.1029/2018GC007539.
    Description: Fluvial export of organic carbon (OC) and burial in ocean sediments comprises an important carbon sink, but fluxes remain poorly constrained, particularly for specific organic components. Here OC and lipid biomarker contents and isotopic characteristics of suspended matter determined in depth profiles across an active channel close to the terminus of the Danube River are used to constrain instantaneous OC and biomarker fluxes and integrated compositions during high to moderate discharges. During high (moderate) discharge, the total Danube exports 8 (7) kg/s OC, 7 (3) g/s higher plant‐derived long‐chain fatty acids (LCFA), 34 (21) g/s short‐chain fatty acids (SCFA), and 0.5 (0.2) g/s soil bacterial membrane lipids (brGDGTs). Integrated stable carbon isotopic compositions were TOC: −28.0 (−27.6)‰, LCFA: −33.5 (−32.8)‰ and Δ14C TOC: −129 (−38)‰, LCFA: −134 (−143)‰, respectively. Such estimates will aid in establishing quantitative links between production, export, and burial of OC from the terrestrial biosphere.
