Description: This dataset presents porewater and bottom water data from 63 stations in the Kiel Bight taken during the research cruises BE03/2016 (08.03.2016), BE10/2016 (19.10.2016), BE10/2018 (23.10.2018), BE03/2019 (15.03.2019), L23-13 (13.09.2023 - 15.09.2023), Sagitta24-1 (16.09.2024), Sagitta24-2 (23.09.2024), L25-2b (09.02.2025 - 17.02.2025) and EMB374 (04.09.2025 - 13.09.2025). Short sediment cores (<50cm) were recovered using a Multicorer (MUC), Minicorer (MIC) or Rumohrlot (RL). At 22 of those stations, bottom water and porewater samples were analysed for total alkalinity (TA), ammonium (NH4+), sulfate (SO42-), hydrogen sulfide (H2S), dissolved iron (Fe2+) and dissolved manganese (Mn2+). At 41 stations, exclusively a bottom water sample was taken for H2S measurements. Bottom waters were sampled from the supernatant water in the sediment cores. Porewater samples were extracted from the sediments using rhizones. TA was determined by titration (METROHM 876 Dosimat Plus), NH4+ and H2S using a photometer (Hitachi U-2900), SO42- by Ion Chromatography (METROHM 761 Compact) and Fe2+ and Mn2+ by Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectroscopy (Varian 720-ES). The collected data will be used to determine the spatial and temporal variability of hydrogen sulfide in bottom waters of the Kiel Bight, (ii) identify the controlling factors governing the accumulation of hydrogen sulfide at the seafloor, and (iii) establish an early warning system of sulfidic seafloor conditions for regional stakeholders in the Baltic Sea.
