This dataset contains geochemical variables measured in six depth profiles from ombrotrophic peatlands in North and Central Europe. Peat cores were taken during the spring and summer of 2022 from Amtsvenn (AV1), Germany; Drebbersches Moor (DM1), Germany; Fochteloër Veen (FV1), the Netherlands; Bagno Kusowo (KR1), Poland; Pichlmaier Moor (PI1), Austria and Pürgschachen Moor (PM1), Austria. The cores AV1, DM1 and KR1 were taken using a Wardenaar sampler (Royal Eijkelkamp, Giesbeek, the Netherlands) and had diameter of 10 cm. The cores FV1, PM1 and PI1 had an 8 cm diameter and were obtained using an Instorf sampler (Royal Eijkelkamp, Giesbeek, the Netherlands). The cores FV1, DM1 and KR1 were 100 cm, core AV1 was 95 cm, core PI1 was 85 cm and core PM1 was 200 cm. The cores were subsampeled in 1 cm (AV1, DM1, KR1, FV1) and 2 cm (PI1, PM1) sections. The subsamples were milled after freeze drying in a ballmill using tungen carbide accesoires. X-Ray Fluorescence (WD-XRF; ZSX Primus II, Rigaku, Tokyo, Japan) was used to determine Al (μg g-1), As (μg g-1), Ba (μg g-1), Br (μg g-1), Ca (g g-1), Cl (μg g-1), Cr (μg g-1), Cu (μg g-1), Fe (g g-1), K (g g-1), Mg (μg g-1), Mn (μg g-1), Na (μg g-1), P (μg g-1), Pb (μg g-1), Rb (μg g-1), S (μg g-1), Si (μg g-1), Sr (μg g-1), Ti (μg g-1) and Zn (μg g-1). These data were processed and calibrated using the iloekxrf package (Teickner & Knorr, 2024) in R. C, N and their stable isotopes were determined using an elemental analyser linked to an isotope ratio mass spectrometer (EA-3000, Eurovector, Pavia, Italy & Nu Horizon, Nu Instruments, Wrexham, UK). C and N were given in units g g-1 and stable isotopes were given as δ13C and δ15N for stable isotopes of C and N, respectively. Raw data C, N and stable isotope data were calibrated with certified standard and blank effects were corrected with the ilokeirms package (Teickner & Knorr, 2024). Using Fourier Transform Mid-Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-MIR) (Agilent Cary 670 FTIR spectromter, Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, Ca, USA) humification indices (HI) were determined. Spectra were recorded from 600 cm-1 to 4000 cm-1 with a resolution of 2 cm-1 and baselines corrected with the ir package (Teickner, 2025) to estimate relative peack heights. The HI (no unit) for each sample was calculated by taking the ratio of intensities at 1630 cm-1 to the intensities at 1090 cm-1. Bulk densities (g cm-3) were estimated from FT-MIR data (Teickner et al., in preparation).

We measured total alkalinity (TA) and dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) in the Ems Estuary (Germany). The cruise took place on two consecutive days in June 2020 (11.06.-12.06.2020) on the German research vessel Ludwig Prandtl. We sampled approx. every 20min along the salinity gradient from the Wadden Sea around Borkum island upstream to Papenburg. Two additional samples were collected from shore at Rhede Brücke and weir Herbrum. We took discrete water samples for TA and DIC. Physical parameters (salinity, temperature) were measured in situ with the on board flow-through FerryBox system, for which water was pumped on board from 1.2m below the surface. These data and complementary data for nutrients and stable nitrate isotopes are accessible in: https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.942222
Recent and predicted increases in extremely dry and hot summers emphasise the need for silvicultural approaches to increase the drought tolerance of existing forests in the short-term, before adaptation through species changes may be possible. We aim to investigate whether resistance during droughts, as well as the recovery following drought events (resilience), can be increased by allocating more growing space to individual trees through thinning. Thinning increases access of promoted trees to soil stored water, as long as this is available. However, these trees may also be disadvantaged through a higher transpirational surface, or the increased neighbourhood competition by ground vegetation. To assess whether trees with different growing space differ in drought tolerance, tree discs and cores from thinning experiments of Pinus sylvestris and Pseudotsuga menziesii stands will be used to examine transpirational stress and growth reduction during previous droughts as well as their subsequent recovery. Dendroecology and stable isotopes of carbon and oxygen in tree-rings will be used to quantify how assimilation rate and stomatal conductance were altered through thinning. The results will provide crucial information for the development of short-term silvicultural adaptation strategies to adapt forest ecosystems to climate change. In addition, this study will improve our understanding of the relationship between resistance and resilience of trees in relation to extreme stress events.
Hydrological science depends on reliable observations. At the same time, many hydrological datasets are distributed across numerous national and regional services, each with its own access routes, documentation, and terms of use. This fragmentation can make it difficult to clearly document where data come from and to reproduce data retrieval in a consistent way. To provide more transparent and reproducible access to hydrological observations, GRDC has developed hydrodownloadR . The R package offers a standardized way to discover hydrological stations and download daily time series such as discharge, water level, water temperature and selected water-quality parameters directly from public national and regional APIs. Transparency in data retrieval is crucial because hydrological assessments and scientific results must be explainable and verifiable across institutions. This is particularly relevant for the annually released WMO State of the Global Water Resources Report , for which GRDC provides data. The hydrodownloadR package supports data retrieval workflows for both routine GRDC data updates and the WMO report. However, the package can also benefit users who require stations that are not yet included in the GRDC database. In such cases, the package provides a straightforward way to access time series directly from the original provider while keeping the data source explicit. It is important that hydrodownloadR , where available, highlights licensing and terms of use information for each API. Furthermore it is designed to access services responsibly by avoiding excessive requests. Nevertheless, users remain responsible for complying with the providers’ terms of use and citation requirements. Coverage and available parameters depend on the underlying public APIs and their data policies. Call to action: If you know a public hydrology API or you operate one, please share with us the documentation link, licensing information, terms of use and, if possible, stable endpoints. Also, if you encounter errors or unexpected behavior, please report them via the project’s GitHub issue tracker so we can address them efficiently. This will help to further improve the package and optimize the discoverability and accessibility of hydrological data. Links: Documentation Source code and issue tracker

The study investigates the chemical and physical characteristics of porewater and soil samples from peatlands across 64 sites in Germany, Poland, Estonia, Scotland, Sweden, and Georgia sampled between 1997 and 2017. The sites covers oceanic (Cfb, Cfc) and continental (Dfb, Dfc) climate zones and include both minerotrophic fens and ombrotrophic bogs. Fens were further classified into poor and rich types based on acidity and floristic composition, with rich fens characterized by higher pH and calcium concentrations due to mineral-rich groundwater inputs. The study also distinguishes between natural sites with stable near-surface water tables and rewetted sites previously subjected to drainage and agricultural use.
This dataset contains dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations, stable oxygen isotope ratios of DO (δ¹⁸ODO), particulate organic carbon (POC) concentrations, and respiration/photosynthesis (R/P) ratios, along with corresponding parameters (temperature, δ¹⁸OH2O, nitrate) collected from the Danube River and its key tributaries during five seasonal sampling campaigns in 2023 and 2024. Water samples were collected using a weighted 2 L sampling bottle submerged 1–2 meters below the surface, with sampling conducted from the river center via bridges or passenger boats, and occasionally from the riverbank. In situ temperature measurements were taken with a multiparameter instrument (HQ40d, HACH™, Loveland, CO, USA). δ¹⁸ODO was analyzed using a modified automated equilibration system (Gasbench II, ThermoFisher Scientific™) coupled to a DELTA V Advantage isotope ratio mass spectrometer (IRMS, ThermoFisher Scientific™). This dataset captures seasonal variations in DO dynamics and provides valuable insights into oxygen sources and sinks within the Danube River. The data support the study of biogeochemical cycling in large river systems and can inform ecosystem management and conservation strategies in the face of environmental and climate change.
This dataset contains C. wuellerstorfi stable carbon isotope values binned by marine isotope stage from ODP Site 162-807 and ODP Site 162-982 that span the last 4.5 million years (Feng et al. 2022; Venz et al. 1999, 2002; Hodell & Venz-Curtis 2006). This isotope gradient reflects the accumulation of respired and disequilibrium carbon in the deep Pacific ocean relative to the North Atlantic. Also included are binned probstack δ18O (Ahn et al., 2017) and ΔGMST (Clark et al., 2024) values for comparison to the binned stable carbon isotope values.
