Ron:
I assume that it is a typo that the iodine values are reported as iodide.
I'd be much happier if these values were reported as iodine, or total iodine (which is what they are). Iodide is neither what was tested nor the predominate form in seawater.
You may think it a trivial difference, but if you or any of your readers are trying to determine if they have natural levels of iodide (which many certainly will), the difference is substantial.
