Master track of ELISABETH MANN BORGESE cruise EMB342 in 1 sec resolution (zipped, 24 MB)
Raw data acquired by position sensors on board RV Elisabeth Mann Borgese during expedition EMB342 were processed to receive a validated master track which can be used as reference of further expedition data. During EMB342 data from the motion reference unit exail Phins Gen.3, the Trimble SPS356 GPS receiver, the Furuno GP-170 and the Furuno GP-150 GPS receiver were used to calculate the mastertrack. Data were downloaded from DAVIS SHIP data base (https://dship.bsh.de) with a resolution of 1 sec. Processing and evaluation of the data is outlined in the data processing report. Processed data are provided as a master track with 1 sec resolution derived from the position sensors' data selected by priority and a generalized track with a reduced set of the most significant positions of the master track

Master track of Eugen Seibold cruise ES22C03, Playa Blanca - Playa Blanca, 2022-03-08 - 2022-03-08
This dataset contains the validated master track of the S/Y Eugen Seibold during expedition ES22C03, with a time resolution of about 10 seconds. This master track can be used as reference for further expedition data. For creating the master track, the 1-second resolution raw data acquired by the GPS position sensor on board S/Y Eugen Seibold were processed, averaging latitude and longitude within equidistant 10-second intervals. Quality control was performed visually and by checking the maximum speed calculated between neighbouring positions. In case of unrealistically high speeds, data points have been removed

Whale sightings during POLARSTERN cruise PS82 (ANT-XXIX/9)
Data on whale distribution and abundance in the polar oceans is rather sparse, as implementing the standard surveying method, line-transect surveys, is challenging and costly. To overcome this problem, we initiated a program to electronically log all opportunistic cetacean sightings during all Polarstern expeditions through the nautical officer on watch. Opportunistic (visual) sightings by naked eye were logged during Polarstern Cruise PS82 (Cape Town – Cape Town) by the nautical officer on duty using a customized Software package (WALOG, WhAleLOGger) installed on a touch screen laptop located on the ship's bridge. Species were identified by naked eye or handheld binoculars (7x50) to the lowest possible taxonomical level and assigned a "certainty" level of identification. The number of animals were counted if possible or estimated for larger groups. Whenever identification to species level was not possible, the next identifiable taxonomical category was assigned. Information on sighting position, date and time are automatically transferred from the ship's DAVIS-Ship System (https://dship.awi.de/) to the WALOG software at the time of logging. Photographs were taken if possible for retrospective analysis. All data of acquired sightings were retrospectively validated by a marine biologist and converted to a standard format. To this end, plausibility of sighting time, location, standardization of species names, eventual comments added at the time of sighting, as well as additional information such as photographs (if available) were checked either to verify or improve species identification. Datasets are used in species distribution modelling and to inform interested parties about occurrences
Hydrogen isotopes of n-alkane biomarkers and brGDGT temperatures from Lake Tulane, Florida, USA
This dataset includes temperatures derived from branched glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (brGDGTs) and regional hydrology changes reconstructed from hydrogen isotope ratios (δ2H) of n-alkanes extracted from a lacustrine sediment core from Lake Tulane, Florida, USA. In 1994, 8 cores from 6 locations (2 complete overlaps) were acquired from a transect along the north basin of Lake Tulane. Cores were taken with a 7.5-cm diameter Wright square-rod piston corer from an anchored raft. Separately, a single surface-water interface core was acquired from the north basin of Lake Tulane in 2010. brGDGTs and n-alkanes were extracted from archived core sections at 8-10 cm intervals in August of 2018 and from the surface-water interface core at 5 cm intervals in August of 2019. The archived core interval spanned Heinrich Stadials 4-2 (41,000-17,000 BP) and the surface-water interface core spanned 78-0 BP. brGDGT distributions from both cores were measured via atmospheric pressure chemical ionization high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (APCI/HPLC–MS), and hydrogen isotope ratios of n-alkanes were measured on a Thermo Trace GC Ultra coupled to a Thermo Electron Delta V Advantage IRMS with an Isolink combustion furnace. The brGDGT data was converted to degrees Celsius (°C) following the open-sourced code provided in O'Beirne et al. (2023, doi:10.1016/j.gca.2023.08.019). Hydrogen isotope results are given in the conventional δ-notation. A proxy for seasonal precipitation and aridity (ε(C29-C23)) was created, which reflects the difference between the δ2H values of aquatic n-alkanes (δ2HC23) and terrestrial leaf wax δ2H values (δ2HC29) using the following equations: (1) α = (1000 + 2HC29)/(1000 + 2HC23), and (2) ε(C29-C23) = (α -1) x 1000
Seawater carbonate chemistry and oxygen, proton flux and calcification of two Hawaiian coral species
This study examines two Hawaiian coral species—Montipora capitata and Pocillopora acuta to elevated pCO2 simulating OA. Utilizing pH and O2 microsensors under controlled light and dark conditions, this work characterized interspecific concentration boundary layer (CBL) traits and quantified material fluxes under ambient and elevated pCO2.
This dataset is included in the OA-ICC data compilation maintained in the framework of the IAEA Ocean Acidification International Coordination Centre (see https://oa-icc.ipsl.fr). Original data were downloaded from Github (see Source) by the OA-ICC data curator. In order to allow full comparability with other ocean acidification data sets, the R package seacarb (Gattuso et al, 2024) was used to compute a complete and consistent set of carbonate system variables, as described by Nisumaa et al. (2010). In this dataset the original values were archived in addition with the recalculated parameters (see related PI). The date of carbonate chemistry calculation by seacarb is 2026-01-21
Multibeam bathymetry processed data (Atlas Hydrosweep DS 3 echo sounder entire dataset) of RV POLARSTERN during cruise PS151, Atlantic Ocean
Multibeam data were collected during RV Polarstern cruise PS151 (2025-11-13 to 2025-12-12). Multibeam sonar system was Atlas Hydrographic Hydrosweep DS 3 multibeam echo sounder. Data are processed with Caris HIPS, including sound velocity correction with SV data from CTDs and World Ocean Atlas 23 (https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/archive/accession/NCEI-WOA23), tidal correction with TPXO9_atlas_v5 (https://www.tpxo.net), and manual cleaning. The soundings are combined in daily files, the format is XYZ ASCII ( ). Additional grids have been computed with depth dependent cell size to visualize the data. These grids are not meant for scientific analysis or navigation, but for overview purposes only
