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.

Sonderforschungsbereich Transregio 172 (SFB TRR): Arktische Verstärkung: Klimarelevante Atmosphären- und Oberflächenprozesse und Rückkopplungsmechanismen (AC)3, Teilprojekt A03: Einfluss von tiefen Wolken auf die arktische atmosphärische Grenzschichtturbulenz und -Strahlung

Vertikalprofile von Strahlungsenergie- und Turbulenzenergieflüssen sowie Impulserhaltung werden untersucht durch (i) Verwendung vorheriger Schiffs- und Flugzeugkampagnen, und (ii) durch die Analyse neuer Messungen von zwei geplanten Flugzeugkampagnen über dem Arktischen Ozean. Die beiden neuen Kampagnen beziehen die AWI Forschungsflugzeuge Polar 5 & 6 ein um die vertikalen Flussprofile als Funktion von Wolken- und Meereisbedeckung unter verschiedenen synoptischen Bedingungen zu messen. Die Flugzeugbeobachtungen sind für Mai/Juni 2017 und März 2019 geplant und decken somit Zeiträume starker (Spätwinter) und schwacher (Frühsommer) arktischer Verstärkung ab.

Zeitlich hochauflösende Klimarekonstruktion für das Spätquartär mittels Sedimentologie und Isotopengeochemie - vergleichende Untersuchungen in der Arktis und Antarktis

Ziel dieses Projektes ist eine vergleichende, zeitlich hochauflösende Rekonstruktion der Klimaentwicklung im Spätquartär im Bereich der Framstraße (Arktis) und des Riiser-Larsen Meeres (Antarktis). Mit Hilfe von Korngrößenanalysen und Sm-Nd-Isotopendaten, sollen klimagesteuerte Veränderungen in der Geschwindigkeit von Bodenströmungen, sowie der Provenienzen, Transportwege und -mechanismen der Sedimente ermittelt werden. Von großer Bedeutung ist die Unterscheidung zwischen strömungs- und eistransportiertem Sediment. Darauf aufbauend untersuchen wir die Kopplung zwischen thermohalinen Prozessen im Nordatlantik/Europäischen Nordmeer und dem Arktischem Ozean. Im RiiserLarsen Meer soll untersucht werden, ob ein Rinnensystem auf dem Kontinentalhang dem klimagesteuerten Abfluss von auf dem Schelf gebildetem Bodenwasser dient. In diesem Zusammenhang wird auch eine mögliche Verschiebung des Weddellwirbels infolge klimatischer Einflüsse untersucht. Im Vordergrund der Arbeiten stehen die Untersuchung von kontemporären Klimaphasen in der Nord- und Südhemisphäre und die Reaktion des Atmoshäre-Eis-Meer Systems im bipolaren Vergleich.

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.

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.
