Distribution and concentration of nutrients, carbon compounds and methane in water samples in the southern German Bight (North Sea) in September 2024 during the MOSES Sternfahrt 12

The 12th Sternfahrt of the ElbeXtreme and MOSES projects took place in 2024 from September 02 to 13, within the area of the German Bight (North Sea). Its objective was to get a more systematic grid of sampling data by spatially integrated onboard sensors. Therefore, the MOSES-laboratory container was installed again. Water samples were taken from the surface with a rosette or via Niskin bottles. The first part of the cruise was conducted by the research vessel (RV) Ludwig Prandtl, starting on the 2nd of September on Heligoland. From there, the crew navigated towards Cuxhaven covering some stations from previous MOSES cruises. For the next days, the ship followed a rectangular track, shifting northward each day, heading towards Heligoland again. Due to strong winds, the sampling stations were reduced to three on the last day. On Heligoland the RV Mya II took over the laboratory container and other sampling equipment for the second part of the cruise. Persistent strong winds delayed the start of the cruise until September 11. Since most of the planned stations were already covered from the RV Ludwig Prandtl, the crew decided to expand the sampling area using a more systematic zig-zag line. With the return of Mya II in the afternoon of the 13th September 2024, the campaign was successfully finished.

Carbon system parameters in the Baltic Sea from 2003 to 2023 using IOW monitoring data

The saturation status of calcium carbonate forms was calculated as part of the CDRmare RETAKE project effort to assess potentials and impacts for using alkalinity enhancement to enhance the capture of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2). Therefore, this data set is a compilation of carbonate system parameters measured during the monitoring cruises of the Leibniz Institute for Baltic Sea Research Warnemünde (IOW) in the Baltic Sea from 2003 to 2023. Ancillary data was retrieved using the IOW's ODIN2 data tool accordingly. The following permanent link allows one to search and extract the data using our settings: https://odin2.io-warnemuende.de/957-0489-676. We paired the carbonate and ancillary (nutrient and hydrogen sulfide, H2S, data) data by selecting the respective cruise, station, timestamp, and depth. Next, we calculated the calcite and aragonite saturation state and other carbonate system parameters using the measured parameters always when two carbonate-system parameters were available. For these calculations, we used CO2SYS v.3.1.2 script for MATLAB (Sharp et al., 2023; van Heuven et al., 2011; Lewis and Wallace, 1998) with the following dissociation constants settings: K1 and K2 of Waters, Millero, & Woosley (2014), KSO4 of Dickson (1990), KF of Perez & Fraga (1987), and TB of Uppström (1979). Propagated uncertainty was calculated using the errors script for MATLAB CO2SYS of Orr et al. (2018) and applying the respective errors: total alkalinity (AT) = 4 µmol/kg, total inorganic dissolved carbon (CT) = 2 µmol/kg, pH = 0.005 (Total), phosphate (PO4) = 3.8%, silicate (SiO4) = 4.6%, and ammonium (NH4) = 9.2%. All carbonate system parameters are presented under 25°C and 0 atm conditions.

Bottle data from a coastal peatland at the German Baltic Sea in 2021

Rewetting peatlands is an important measure to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. However, after rewetting, the areas are highly heterogeneous in terms of GHG exchange, which depends on water level and source, vegetation, previous use, and duration of rewetting. These challenging conditions require new technologies that go beyond discrete sampling. Here we present data from two autonomous lander platforms deployed at the sediment-water interface (bottom lander) of a shallow coastal peatland (approx. 1 m water depth) that was rewetted by brackish water from the Baltic Sea, thus becoming part of the coastal water through a permanent connection. These landers were equipped with six commercially available state-of-the-art sensors, and temporal high-resolution measurements of physico-chemical variables, including partial pressures of carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4), were made. The resolution of the field data ranged from 10 seconds to 120 minutes and was obtained for partial pressure of CO2 (Contros HydroC-CO2) and CH4 (Contros HydroC-CH4), temperature, salinity, pressure (water depth), oxygen (O2) (CTD-O2 with SBE-37SMP-ODO), the concentrations of phosphate (SBE HydroCycle PO4), nitrate (SBE SUNA V2), chlorophyll a and the turbidity (both with SBE-FLNTUSB ECO) as stationary measurements at two different locations in close proximity. The CTD and oxygen measurements provide exact water depth data for the respective lander locations. In the other data sets (e.g., CO2 measurements) rounded data are inserted instead of the exact depth data, which is 0.6 m for lander_1 and 0.9 m for lander_2. SUNA raw data are provided for completeness. However, we found them of insufficient quality to estimate nitrate concentrations due to interferences and biofouling. The deployment and recovery of the landers, and thus the measurements, took place between 02 June 2021 and 09 August 2021, and the sensors were operated under permanent wired power supply and a centralized timestamp. The sensors were maintained and cleaned bi-weekly. Results show considerable temporal fluctuations expressed as multi-day, diurnal, and event-based variability, with spatial differences caused by biologically-dominated variables.

KOSMOS 2023 Helgoland mesocosm study on ocean alkalinity enhancement: sediment trap particle flux data and water column biogeochemistry

The data presented herein originates from a mesocosm study conducted as part of the BMBF CDRmare, Retake project (grant agreement no. 03F0895A), aimed at investigating the ecological ramifications of ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE). Twelve mesocosms were deployed in Helgoland South Harbor, Germany, and systematically sampled using integrated water samplers over the period spanning from March 12th to April 20th, 2023. Six alkalinity levels under two dilution scenarios were established to differentiate between localized and uniform OAE additions. Alkalinity was increased stepwise to ΔTAmax = 1250 μmol kg-1 (250 μmol TA kg-1 increments) using sodium hydroxide (NaOH) with calcium chloride (CaCl2) to simulate cation release during calcium-based mineral dissolution, causing strong carbonate chemistry perturbations (e.g., pHT > 9.25). The dataset encompasses a spectrum of sediment trap particle flux data, water column biogeochemistry including pigment variables, inorganic nutrients, carbonate chemistry parameters. The study and data set offer insights into impacts of alkalinity enhancement on marine ecosystems and their associated biogeochemistry.

Carbonate chemistry speciation of the 2023 KOSMOS Helgoland experiment on the effects of ocean alkalinity enhancement on pelagic foodwebs

This dataset contains carbonate chemistry speciation data of the 2023 KOSMOS mesocosm study on Helgoland, Germany. This study tested the effects of ocean alkalinity enhancement simulating lime additions on pelagic ecosystem functioning during a spring bloom. Carbonate chemistry speciation (fCO2, pHT, calcium carbonate saturation state) was generally calculated from measurements of total alkalinity (TA) and dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) in depth-integrated water samples. There were 12 mesocosms in total and in 6 of them an alkalinity gradient of up to +1250 umol/kg was established in steps of 250 umol/kg. In the remaining 6 the same amount of alkalinity was added only to the upper portion of the mesocosms, resulting in twice the alkalinity increase there, before being mixed in after 48 hours. The two treatments simulated the immediate dilution of TA after ship deployment as well as a delayed one from a point source.

Schwerpunktprogramm (SPP) 527: Bereich Infrastruktur - International Ocean Discovery Program, Teilprojekt: Sedimente des Melvillesees: Ein Zeitfenster in die präholozäne Glazialgeschichte des Laurentidischen Eisschildes (Akronym: MELSED)

Der Melvillesee ist ein Fjordsee, der sich in der letzten Eiszeit am Rande des hochdynamischen Laurentidischen Eisschildes (LIS) befand. Die obersten 10 m der insgesamt ca. 300-400 m Seesedimente haben die postglaziale Geschichte der letzten 10000 Jahre aufgezeichnet. In diesem dicken Sedimentpaket dürfte der See die Klimageschichte bis weit zurück vor das letzte Glazial gespeichert haben und würde sich daher als exzellentes Klimaarchiv anbieten. Um diesen Sachverhalt zu klären, wurde im Sommer 2019 eine Expedition mit dem FS Maria S. Merian (MSM84) unternommen. Während dieser Expedition wurden Sedimentkerne gezogen sowie ein dichtes Netz von hydroakustischen Messungen durchgeführt. Anhang der Sedimentkerne und der Sedimentecholot-Daten kann man fünf verschiedene Schichten im Untergrund des Sees erkennen: (I) post-glaziale Sedimente; (II) Sedimente aus der Zeit des Eisrückzuges; (III) Sedimente, die mit großer Wahrscheinlichkeit in einem subglazialen See unterhalb des aufschwimmenden LIS abgelagert wurden. Darunter finden sich (IV) wiederum schön geschichtete Sedimente, die aus einem früheren eisfreien Zeitraum stammen dürften, vermutlich MIS5, MIS4 oder die erste Hälfte des MIS3. Als unterste Schichte ist das Grundgestein (V) zu erkennen. Unsere Sedimentkerne enthalten Sedimente aus I und II sowie aus dem obersten Bereich von III. Im Rahmen dieses Projektes schlagen wir vor, die post-glazialen Sedimente sowie diejenige vom Rückzug des LIS genauer zu untersuchen, um daran Paläoklimaschwankungen sowie die Rückzugsgeschichte des LIS zu rekonstruieren. In einem zweiten Schritt möchten wir auch die Sedimente analysieren, die vom subglazialen See zu stammen, um diesen besser zu charakterisieren und um zu testen, ob auch diese Sedimente Klimaschwankungen aufgezeichnet haben. Um diese Fragen zu beantworten, werden wir die Sedimentkerne zuerst mit zerstörungsfreien Methoden wie CT-Scanning, Multisensor-Core-Logging und XRF-Scanning untersuchen. Danach werden ausgewählte Kernabschnitte beprobt. Mit Hilfe von Radiokarbondatierungen und paläomagnetischen Messungen werden wir ein Altersmodell erstellen können. Mit einer Kombination der zerstörungsfreien Messungen mit Einzelprobenmessungen (TIC, TOC, Korngröße, XRD, WD-XRF) werden wir die in den Kernen enthaltene paläoklimatologische Information entschlüsseln. Hierbei werden wir einen Schwerpunkt auf die Entwicklung von Proxies legen, die geeignet sind, die vergangenen Vorstöße und Rückzüge des LIS zu rekonstruieren. Falls wir zeigen können, dass die Sedimente des Melvillesees tatsächlich ein Archiv für Klimageschichte auch jenseits des Holozäns sind, dann empfiehlt sich der See als ein Hauptziel einer zukünftigen amphibischen Tiefbohrung von IODP und ICDP. Diese würde mit dem Ziel abgeteuft, die Dynamik des LIS zu rekonstruieren.

TemBi 2014 mesocosm study: Summer storm impact on water chemistry and physics in Lake Stechlin

We simulated an experimental summer storm in large-volume (~1200 m³, ~16m depth) enclosures in Lake Stechlin by mixing deeper water masses from the meta- and hypolimnion into the mixed layer (epilimnion). The mixing included the disturbance of a deep chlorophyll maximum (DCM) which was present at the same time of the experiment in Lake Stechlin and situated in the metalimnion of each enclosure during filling. Water physical variables and water chemistry was monitored for 42 days after the experimental disturbance event. Mixing disrupted the thermal stratification, increasing concentrations of dissolved nutrients and CO2 and changing light conditions in the epilimnion. Mixing, thus, stimulated phytoplankton growth, resulting in higher particulate matter concentrations of carbon, nitrogen and phosphorous.

Bio-Geochemische Stoffzyklen

Die im Zeitraum 1979 bis 1985 in Juelich, Ahrensburg, Deuselbach und Le Conquet durchgefuehrten Messungen des Nitrat-Gehaltes in Niederschlaegen ergaben charakteristische jahreszeitliche Veraenderungen im 15N/14N-Verhaeltnis des Nitrats (hoehere 15N/14N-Werte im Herbst und Winter als im Fruehling und Sommer mit einer jahreszeitlichen Amplitude von 4-5 Promille). Eine aehnliche jahreszeitliche Variation des 15N/14N-Verhaeltnisses ergab sich auch in partikulaerem Nitrat, das im Zeitraum 1978 bis 1985 in Juelich durch Abscheidung mit normalen Filtrationsgeraeten und mit High-Volume-Impaktoren gesammelt wurde. Dagegen zeigte gasfoermige Salpetersaeure ein nahezu konstantes 15N/14N-Verhaeltnis. Folgende Deutungen der jahreszeitlichen Variation des 15N/14N-Verhaeltnisses im Nitrat sind moeglich: (a) unterschiedliche Beteiligung natuerlicher und anthropogener Quellen von NOx an der Nitrat-Bildung waehrend der Jahreszeiten; (b) temperaturabhaengige Isotopenaustauschgleichgewichte; (c) unterschiedliche reaktionskinetische Isotopieeffekte bei der Bildung von gasfoermigem und partikulaerem Nitrat sowie unterschiedliche Anteile beider Species im gemessenen Nitrat waehrend der Jahreszeiten. Zur weiteren Interpretation des Effektes muessen 15N/14N-Messungen an NOx aus unterschiedlichen Quellen und deren jahreszeitliche Variation sowie Messungen der Isotopieeffekte bei verschiedenen Umwandlungsmechanismen im NOx/HNO3-Zyklus durchgefuehrt werden.
