Schwerpunktprogramm (SPP) 1158: Antarctic Research with Comparable Investigations in Arctic Sea Ice Areas; Bereich Infrastruktur - Antarktisforschung mit vergleichenden Untersuchungen in arktischen Eisgebieten, Polare Fische und der globale Wandel: Wie beeinflussen multiple Umweltressoren den Stoffwechsel arktischer & antarktischer Fische?

Ozeanerwärmung, -versauerung und die Umweltverschmutzung, nehmen zunehmend Einfluss auf die arktische und antarktische Umwelt. Antarktische, stenothermen Fische haben sich evolutionär an die dortigen stabilen Umweltbedingungen angepasst, welche z.B. genetische und funktionellen Veränderungen beinhalten. Diese könnten u.a. die Anpassungsmöglichkeiten antarktischer Fische gegenüber Umweltveränderungen beeinträchtigen. Vergleichsweise dazu leben arktische, gadoide Fische in einem Gebiet mir größeren Umweltschwankungen. In Anbetracht desen wird sich die Klimaveränderung wahrscheinlich unterschiedlich auf Arktische und Antarktische Fische auswirken.Das Herz-Kreislaufsystems stenothermer Fischarten ist prinzipiell nur geringfügig auf Umweltveränderungen zu reagieren. Hierbei stellt die Herzfunktion einen Schlüsselfaktor dar. Studien deuten des Weiteren auf negative und interagierende Einflüsse von Ozeanerwärmung- und versauerung auf Embryos und Larvalen polarer Fischarten hin. Die Exposition der Fische gegenüber mehreren, kombinierten Umweltstressoren kann zudem zu Verschiebungen im Energiehaushalt führen. Diese können eine verringerte Energieverfügbarkeit für andere, lebensnotwendige Funktionen zur Folge haben.Der Antrag befasst sich mit der Frage, wie sich die Umweltstressoren anthropogene Umweltverschmutzung, Klimaerwärmung und Ozeanversauerung auf den Energiestoffwechsel verschiedener Lebensstadien arktischer und antarktischer Fische auswirkt. Die Kernfragen lauten:Beeinträchtigt das Zusammenspiel multipler Stressoren den Schadstoffstoffwechsel polarer Fische? Verursachen multiple Stressoren eine Verschiebung im Energiehaushalt arktischer und antarktischer Fische? Wie beeinflussen Schadstoffe die aerobe und Herzfunktion der verschiedenen Entwicklungsstadien polarer Fische?Was für negative Folgen könnten aus ökologischer Sicht für arktische Gadoiden und antarktische Notothenioiden draus resultieren?Der Antrag soll ein grundsätzliches Verständnis für molekulare, mitochondriale, zellulare und Stoffwechselprozesse schaffen, welche der Anfälligkeit polarer Fische gegenüber Umweltstressoren zugrundeliegen. Als Maß für evolutionäre Anpassungsfähigkeit sollen die Akklimationskapazitäten der verschiedenen Lebensstadien polarer Fische untersucht werden.Für einen Breitengraden-Vergleich von Toleranzen gegenüber Umweltfaktoren konzentriert sich der Antrag auf ökologisch und biologisch vergleichbare stenotherme Arten. Somit wird eine Datengrundlage geschaffen, um die evolutionär verschiedenen aber gleichermaßen stenothermen arktische und antarktische Fische vergleichen zu können.Die in diesem Antrag eruierte physiologische Empflindlichkeit polarer Fische gegenüber Klimawandel sollen abschließend dazu dienen, die zukünftigen Risiken menschengemachter Umweltrisiken für diese Tiere abgeschätzen zu können. Schließlich wird das Projekt eine Grundlage für Management- und Schutzmaßnahmen polarer Ökosysteme gegenüber fortschreitendem globalen Wandel bilden.

Unified Airborne Active and Passive Microwave Measurements over Arctic Sea Ice and Ocean during the HALO-(AC)³ Campaign in Spring 2022 (v2.7)

The Halo Microwave Package (HAMP), deployed onboard the High Altitude and LOng range research aircraft (HALO), performed measurements over the Arctic ocean and sea-ice during the HALO-(AC)³ campaign in March and April 2022. After the transfer flight (RF01) from Oberpfaffenhofen (Germany), 17 research flight (RF) days started from Kiruna, Sweden and heading northwards to the Fram Strait and central Arctic. Here, HAMP measurements were taken in different weather conditions comprising high impact synoptic events such as warm air intrusions, atmospheric rivers, cold air outbreaks or polar lows. We provide a dataset of active and passive microwave HAMP measurements, i.e. from the cloud and precipitation radar and the radiometers respectively. The radar operates at a frequency of 35 GHz while the microwave radiometer measurements comprise 25 channels in the frequency range between 22 and 190 GHz. Our dataset delivers time-series of brightness temperatures from the radiometers, and the radar reflectivity factor and linear depolarization ratio from the radar in a unified format. The unified and processed dataset provides the post-calibrated and quality-controlled measurements from both devices in a collocated temporal 1 Hz resolution applicable for joint analysis. An adherent surface mask distinguishes between three predominant overpassed surface types (land, sea, and sea-ice). The radar measurements are further unified in a vertical grid having 30 m resolution. Our unified dataset allows for wide-spread analysis of evolving arctic cloud and moisture properties over the remote Arctic ocean.

Cell densities of the Arctic diatom Thalassiosira gravida in response to temperature, photoperiod and microbiome presence

In March 2023, cell densities of the Arctic diatom Thalassiosira gravida (isolated from the Central Arctic Ocean) were determined to calculate its growth rates at different temperatures and photoperiods in the presence and absence of its natural microbiome. Therefore, a full-factorial experimental design was chosen with two levels of temperature (9°C; 13.5°C) and photoperiod (16h; 24h), to which axenic and xenic diatom cultures were acclimated for one week in climate cabinets prior to the start of the actual growth experiment at a light intensity of 50 µmol photons m-2 s-1. With an initial cell density of 1500 cells/ml, axenic and xenic diatoms were grown under the respective experimental conditions until a cell density of approximately 15000 cells/ml was reached. Cell densities were determined microscopically using an inverted light microscope, following the procedure described in detail in Giesler et al. (2023, 10.3389/fmars.2023.1244639).

Master tracks in different resolutions of POLARSTERN cruise PS122/5, Arctic Ocean - Bremerhaven, 2020-08-12 - 2020-10-12

Raw data acquired by position sensors on board RV Polarstern during expedition PS122_5 was processed to receive a validated master track which can be used as reference of further expedition data. During PS122_5 two Trimble Marine SPS461 GPS receivers and the iXBlue HYDRINS hydrographic survey inertial navigation system were used as navigation sensors. Data were downloaded from DAVIS SHIP data base (https://dship.o2a-data.de) with a resolution of 1 sec. Processing and evaluation of the data is outlined in the data processing report found at EPIC repository hdl:10013/epic.c87f9f33-baed-46f7-9fac-5f31409719bc. 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.

Multibeam bathymetry processed data (dataset compilation) of RV POLARSTERN & RV MARIA S. MERIAN during 44 cruises from 1984 to 2024, Fram Strait, Greenland Sea, Arctic Ocean

The Long-Term Ecological Research observatory HAUSGARTEN was established by the Alfred-Wegener-Institut Helmholtz-Zentrum für Polar- und Meeresforschung in the Fram Strait in summer 1999 to detect and track the impact of large-scale environmental changes on the marine ecosystem in the transition zone between the northern North Atlantic and the central Arctic Ocean. In this area, bathymetric data have been recorded with multibeam echosounders during 44 research expeditions on RV Polarstern and RV Maria S. Merian since 1984. From these data, a digital elevation model was generated and geostatistical analyses were performed to calculate geospatial derivatives and quantitative terrain descriptors for subsequent terrain analyses and habitat mapping. The dataset covers an area from 78°N to 81°N and 6°W to 12°E. To create the data product, archive data was used from seven different multibeam echosounders in various raw data formats. This data has been processed and cleaned with CARIS HIPS & SIPS, including sound velocity correction for datasets from 1999 and newer. Older datasets are calculated with a static sound velocity of 1500 m/s. Soundings where exported for gridding with Generic Mapping Tools (GMT) nearneighbor. The resulting Digital Elevation Model (DEM) is in the WGS84/Arctic Polar Stereographic (EPSG:3995) projection with a cell size of 100m x 100m. The hillshade was computed with a combination of slope and synthetic illumination with a vertical exaggeration of 10. Slope inclination was calculated with GDAL tool Slope with the formula of Zevenbergen and Thorne (1987) in degree. Terrain Ruggedness Index (TRI) was computed with the QGIS tool Ruggedness index following the approach of Riley et al. (1999) in meters. For the Bathymetric Position Indices (BPI), focal statistics have been calculated with the GRASS tool "r.neighbors" and the QGIS raster calculator following the concept of the Topographic Position Index (Weiss, 2001) with a circular reference area of 99 cells (broad) and 9 cells (fine). The additional coverage polygon layer gives and overview on the used datasets and their corresponding metadata. The map gives an overview on the LTER HAUSGARTEN area and the HAUSGARTEN 2024 DEM.

Nitrogen isotope and biomarker data during Late Paleocene–early Eocene

This dataset compiles raw measurements generated to investigate perturbations of the marine nitrogen cycle during the Paleocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM). It includes abundances of isoprenoidal GDGTs (isoGDGTs) and crenarchaeol mass accumulation rates, (ii) chromatographic peak areas of bacteriohopanetetrol (BHT) and BHT-x, and (iii) the nitrogen isotopic composition of bulk sediments (bulk sediment δ¹⁵N). Samples were collected from multiple ocean basins and regions: the Central Arctic Ocean (IODP 302–M0004), East Tasman Plateau in the Southwest Pacific (ODP Site 1172), Central Northern Caucasus (Kheu River), the New Jersey Shelf/Atlantic Coastal Plain (ODP 174AX Ancora), the Côte d'Ivoire–Ghana Transform Margin in the equatorial Atlantic (ODP 959), the Southeast Newfoundland Ridge in the central North Atlantic (IODP 1403), Fur Island, Denmark (Fur Formation), and the Tarim Basin, western China (Qimugen Formation). Lipid biomarker data were obtained using liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry, and bulk nitrogen isotope data were measured by elemental analysis coupled to isotope-ratio mass spectrometry.

Clay and heavy minerals and total organic carbon in Arctic Ocean surface sediments – Data tables to distribution maps of Stein (2008)

Total organic carbon (TOC) and mineral assemblages are key data sets determined to characterize marine sediments in terms of sediment provenances, processes, and depositional environments. In a comprehensive review and synthesis (Stein, 2008), such data were compiled for Arctic Ocean surface sediments and shown in nine selected distribution maps: four maps of clay minerals (illite, smectite, chlorite, and kaolinite), four maps of heavy minerals (amphibole, clinopyroxene, epidote, and garnet), and one TOC map. The data used to produce these maps, are represented in the three tables of this data report. For details in background information and methodology see primary source literature cited here as well as the Stein (2008) synthesis.

Helicopter-borne Magnetics NARES I + II (Kane Basin)

In May/June 2001, as part of the expedition NARES I, an aeromagnetic survey was carried out in the area of the eastern Kane Basin in cooperation with the Canadian GSC, in addition to the survey over the Robeson Channel and parallel to marine geophysical investigations with the Canadian icebreaker Louis S. St. Laurent. Another survey, NARES II, was conducted from Alexandra Fiord in 2003 and covered coastal areas of Ellesmere Island and the western Kane Basin. The aim of the research was to detect and localize the Wegener Fault, a transform fault between Ellesmere Island and NW Greenland, which is closely linked to the opening of the North Atlantic and the Arctic Ocean. The helicopter-borne magnetic surveys NARES I + II (Kane Basin) were carried out with a flight line spacing of 2 km, and control profiles were flown every 10 km. During the two expeditions, 11806 km of line data were collected (3573 km in 2001, and 8333 km in 2003), covering an area of approximately 20000 km². The aeromagnetic data were recorded by a magnetometer, which was towed approx. 25 m beneath the helicopter.
