Metabarcoding Zooplankton communities of the Chukchi Borderland region

V4, V9 and COI Illumina MiSeq reads for marine zooplankton of the Chukchi Borderland region, western Arctic Ocean.

Zooplankton dry mass measurements from Rectangular Midwater Trawl1 (RMT1) sam...

Dry mass (mg DM m-3) of zooplankton bulk samples was measured from samples of Polarstern cruise PS106 (SIPKA). Samples were taken with the RMT1 net with a mesh size of 320 µm....

Zooplankton biomass from Rectangular Midwater Trawl1 (RMT1) samples during PO...

Drymass (mg DM m-3) of zooplankton taxa was calculated using conversion factors from biovolume to dry mass as described in Cornils et al. (2022) from samples of Polarstern...

Zooplankton biovolume from Rectangular Midwater Trawl1 (RMT1) samples during ...

Biovolume (mm3 m-3) of zooplankton taxa was calculated as described in Cornils et al. (2022) from samples of Polarstern cruise PS106 (SIPKA). . Prior to the analysis each sample...

Zooplankton abundance from Rectangular Midwater Trawl1 (RMT1) samples during ...

Abundance (ind. m-3) of zooplankton taxa was calculated from samples of Polarstern cruise PS106.2. Samples were taken with the Rectangular Midwater Trawl with a mesh size of 320...

Raw physical oceanography and ocean current velocity data from mooring SCO3-1...

Time-series data of physical oceanography and ocean current velocities were obtained from mooring SCO3-1 in the Fram Strait from Aug 2018 to Aug 2022. The mooring was deployed...

Physical properties of sea ice cores from site MCS-SYI measured on legs 1 to ...

We present sea ice temperature and salinity data from first-year ice (FYI) and second-year ice (SYI) relevant to the temporal development of sea ice permeability and brine...

Physical properties of sea ice cores from site MCS_FYI measured on legs 1 to ...

We present sea ice temperature and salinity data from first-year ice (FYI) and second-year ice (SYI) relevant to the temporal development of sea ice permeability and brine...

CT and CTD data measured by the ocean unit of the unmanned ice station during...

The UIS ocean unit (CT package) consisted of five conductivity & temperature sensors (RBR duo CT), one conductivity, and temperature & depth (pressure) sensor (RBR...

Location of the unmanned ice station during the MOSAiC expedition

One unmanned ice station (UIS) has been deployed at the L3 site (85.13ºN, 135.68ºE) of the Distributed Network (DN) of the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study...

Meteorological data (near-surface air temperature, relative humidity and air ...

Air temperature and relative humidity (Vaisala HMP155A), as well as barometric pressure (Vaisala CS106), were measured at 1.5 m height above the initial snow surface.

Temperature data measured by the thermistors chain of the ice unit of the unm...

Thermistors (Maxim Integrated DS28EA00) mounted at 0.03 m spacing along a 4.5-m thermistor chain were used to measure temperature profiles. The depth refers the initial snow-ice...

Snow depth and ice thickness estimated from the temperature profile or measur...

The initial ice thickness and snow depth at the buoy deployment site were 1.53 and 0.15 m, respectively. The changes in ice thickness was determined using measurements by the...
