N1 - Funding Information:
We are grateful to C. Junghans for measurement of the 13C samples and to H.G. Junghans for his help in the sampling of the large volume 14C samples. This work was funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation and by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft.

N2 - The technique for small volume oceanic AMS 14C measurement is described. The procedure includes sampling, CO2 extraction from the water samples, target preparation and measurement at the ETH/SIN AMS facility. AMS 14C data from a station in the southern Weddell Sea with an accuracy of ± 5‰ are presented. The data are in good agreement with large volume 14C measurements done by conventional low-level counting techniques with an accuracy of ± 2‰.
