Primary producer biomarker profiles of bulk carbon and nitrogen stable isotopes (SI), compound specific stable isotopes of carbon in essential amino acids (CSIA-EAA) and their fatty acid (FA) collected from the Beaufort Sea coastal lagoons,2021-2024
Within Stefansson Sound in Prudhoe Bay, AK various organic matter sources were collected to determine multiple biomarker baseline profiles (i.e., bulk carbon and nitrogen stable isotopes (SI), compound specific stable isotopes of carbon in essential amino acids (CSIA-EAA), fatty acids (FA)). Some organic matter sources were collected from Elson lagoon in Utqiaġvik, AK and Kaktovik and Jago lagoons in Kaktovik, AK to supplement low sample sizes in some organic matter source groups. Kelp, red algae, terrestrial plants, phytoplankton, and ice algae were collected in 2024 with some supplement samples collected in 2021 - 2023. Stable isotope values of δ13C and δ15N are reported as “del_13c” and “del_15n”, respectively. Individual fatty acids are reported as the percent relative to total fatty acids for 23 fatty acids: C11:0, C12:0, C14:0, C15:1, C15:0, C16:0, C16:1n7, C17:0, C17:1, C18:0, C18:1n9 trans, C18:2n6 cis, C18:1n7, C18:3n3, C20:0, C18:3n6, C20:4n6, C21:0, C22:0, C22:1n9, C23:0, C24:0, C22:6n3. Stable isotope values of δ13C are reported in the following essential amino acids: Valine (Val), Leucine (Leu), iLeu (isoleucine), Methionine (Met), Phenylalanine (Phe). Additionally, we used ice algal diatoms collected in the Arctic (landfast ice near Utqiaġvik, Alaska) and cultured in a laboratory setting at the University of Alaska Fairbanks to compare the CSIA-EAA fingerprints of field (composites) ice algal samples and isolate diatoms samples.
Circulation dynamics: currents, waves, temperature measurements from moorings in lagoon sites along the Alaska Beaufort Sea coast, 2018-ongoing
Starting August 2018, five moorings deployed on the seafloor of multiple lagoons in the Beaufort Sea will record currents, waves, temperature, and pressure. Moorings are retrieved and re-deployed each August. This data is being collected to better understand the multi-seasonal circulation dynamics between the Beaufort Sea and coastal lagoons. Two moorings are deployed in Elson Lagoon, one in Stefansson Sound, one in Jago Lagoon, and one in Kaktovik Lagoon. Each mooring contains two data loggers: RBRduo3 T.D wave loggers and Lowell Instruments LLC TCM-1 tilt current meters. The RBR instruments measure temperature, pressure, and derived wave energy, average wave period, average wave height, maximum wave period, maximum wave height, 1/10 wave period, 1/10 wave height, significant wave period, significant wave height, tidal slope, depth, and sea pressure. The Lowell LLC TML-1 tilt current meters measure water velocity, heading, and temperature.
Sea-ice induced Southern Ocean subsurface warming and surface cooling in a warming climate: ROMS model data
<p><strong>Abstract:</strong></p> <p>This data set contains model output data from the regional ocean modelling system (ROMS) that was set up for the Southern Ocean (south of 24 °S; Haumann, 2016) to analyze the effects of changing surface freshwater and momentum fluxes on Southern Ocean water-mass changes over the period 1980 to 2011. All data is provided in NetCDF format. The data set contains 3 sets 40-year long model spin-up, control, and 3 perturbation simulations each. The sets differ by their model mean state to assess the effect of surface salinity biases on the results. One set of simulations are reference simulations where salinity is restored to the observed surface salinity during model spin-up, and the other two sets are simulations in which the restoring surface salinity has been altered by plus and minus 0.1 PSU, respectively. The control and perturbation simulations are 40-year extensions of the respective model spin-up simulations. In the perturbation simulations either the surface freshwater fluxes or momentum fluxes are instantaneously perturbed after the spin-up simulation to reflect the observation-derived changes in these surface fluxes and then held constant (at the perturbed level) for 40 years. They consist of sea-ice freshwater flux, glacial meltwater flux, and atmosphere-ocean momentum flux changes. Details on the model setup, forcing, and simulations can be obtained from the related research article by Haumann et al.

Years refer to model years since initiation, i.e. the start of the spin-up simulation, and reach a maximum of 80 at the end of the control and perturbation experiments. Averages are either annual means over an indicated period ('yearly'), overall means over an indicated period ('mean'), or monthly climatologies over an indicated period ('clim'). 'Yearly' and 'Clim' values are provided either for surface fields or vertically integrated fields ('surf'). 'Mean' values are provided on the native vertical model grid as 3D fields. 'Yearly' zonal mean ('zonalmean') values have been first interpolated to from the native vertical model grid to a regular vertical z-level grid and then zonally averaged. All data has been stored in NetCDF format and compressed using level 1 deflation (https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/blogs/developer/entry/netcdf_compression). Full monthly mean model output from these simulations and the forcing fields can be obtained from the corresponding author upon request (alexander.haumann@gmail.com).</p> <p><br> <strong>Standards:</strong></p> <p>Data files have been formatted as Network Common Data Form (NetCDF; https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/) in Hierarchical Data Format, version 5 (https://portal.hdfgroup.org/display/knowledge/HDF5+Documentation)</p> <p><br> <strong>Contents:</strong></p> <p><em>Data</em><br> -

Daily runoff and nutrient loads for the North Sea and the Baltic Sea based on modelling and observations for the period 1961 to 2019 and adapted to NEMO-SCOBI
<p>This dataset consists of daily values of runoff and reconstructed nutrient loads for the period 1961 to 2019 for the North Sea-Baltic Sea system. Both runoff and nutrient loads were obtained from a model simulation performed with the European application of the Hydrological Predictions for the Environment model v.3.1.8 (E-HYPE). This dataset includes a more realistic number of river outlets than those from observational-based datasets, as not all rivers are monitored, and captures well the interannual variability of all parameters. However, the E-HYPE v.3.1.8 was calibrated to represent 2010 and thus cannot simulate all historical changes related to land management (i.e., the increase of fertilizers in the 1960s). Consequently, the observed rise of nutrients from land due to increased fertilizers and the consequent reduction due to nutrient regulation policy in the 1980s is not captured in the outputs from E-HYPE directly. In the North Sea and the Baltic Sea, this is of primary importance for management policy in eutrophication and deoxygenation. Therefore, we have adapted the E-HYPE nutrient loads based on yearly estimates of historical loads that use riverine concentrations, so that the high tempo-spacial resolution is kept, but with a decadal variability that is closer to reality. This dataset is mainly intended as river forcing for biogeochemical-ocean models (i.e. NEMO-SCOBI), but can also provide information on rivers that are not included in monitoring programs. Information on the dataset and the methods used to create it is given as a downloadable PDF file (E-HYPE DecVar documentation.pdf) together with two datasets and the mesh grid file (area_NEMO-Nordic.nc). The datasets are yearly netCDF files one containing daily runoff and nutrient loads for phosphate, nitrate, ammonium, organic nitrogen and organic phosphorus (zip_ehypeDecVar.zip) and the other one provides monthly silica loads (zip_silica.zip). </p>
Size-Fractionated Chlorophyll a, Primary Productivity, and Photosynthetic Physiological Parameters of Phytoplankton in the Cosmonaut Sea, Southern Ocean, During Summer 2022
This dataset provides vertical distribution profiles of size-fractionated phytoplankton parameters measured in the Cosmonaut Sea, a marginal ice zone in the Southern Ocean, during the austral summer of 2022. Sampling was conducted across multiple stations spanning latitudes from approximately 33°N to 60°N and longitudes from -62°E to -67°E, focusing on surface and subsurface waters up to depths of about 40 meters. The data capture key aspects of phytoplankton physiology and productivity in this dynamic polar environment, influenced by seasonal ice melt and nutrient availability. Parameters include chlorophyll a concentrations (Chl a), primary productivity indicators such as maximum photosynthetic rates (PBm), photosynthetic efficiency (α), saturation irradiance (Ek), and integrated gross primary productivity (IGPPeu), all differentiated by size fractions: net phytoplankton (>20 μm), nano- and pico-phytoplankton (<20 μm), and total community. Additional measurements encompass photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) and mixed layer depths, providing context for light and stratification effects on phytoplankton dynamics. Data were derived from in situ incubations and fluorometric analyses, with values reported for discrete depths at each station to highlight vertical gradients in biomass and photosynthetic performance. This completed dataset is particularly valuable for studies on polar marine ecosystems, carbon cycling, and climate-driven changes in phytoplankton communities, offering insights into how size-structured assemblages respond to environmental gradients in the Southern Ocean. It does not include taxonomic details beyond general phytoplankton groupings but emphasizes physiological metrics for modeling primary production in ice-influenced regions.
Seasonal Ice Mass-balance Buoy (SIMB) measurements from sites along the Beaufort Sea Coast, Alaska, 2018-ongoing
Measurements of the thickness of sea ice and the depth of its snow cover allow us to calculate how their mass changes in response to the varying fluxes of heat between the ocean and atmosphere over the course of a season. Repeated drill measurements are not ideal for this purpose since each drill hole disturbs the ice and its insulating snow cover. Also, spatial variability in ice thickness can mask temporal changes if holes are not drilled in the same place each time. Hence, methods that do not require re-drilling are preferred. Automated systems such as the Seasonal Ice Mass-balance Buoy (SIMB; Planck et al, 2019) provide high temporal resolution for capturing sub-daily variations and typically include sensor strings to measure the vertical temperature profile from the air to the ocean, which can be used to infer other properties of the ice cover such as strength and porosity. Under the Beaufort Lagoon Ecosystems LTER (BLE LTER) research program, several SIMBs are deployed at sites along the Beaufort Sea coast and record a suite of parameters including but not limited to snow depth, ice thickness, position of ice surface and bottom, water/air temperature, and vertical profiles of temperature. Planck, C. J., J. Whitlock, C. Polashenski, and D. Perovich (2019), The evolution of the seasonal ice mass balance buoy, Cold Regions Science and Technology, 165, 102792, doi: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.coldregions.2019.102792.
Time series of water column pH from lagoon sites along the Alaska Beaufort Sea coast, 2018-ongoing
Beginning in August 2018, the Beaufort Lagoon Ecosystems Long Term Ecological Research (BLE LTER) program will record water column pH time series (hourly) from a benthic mooring containing a Seabird SeaFET V2 buoyed 10 cm from the lagoon seafloor. pH values are logged from the instrument’s internal sensor and reported on the total hydrogen ion scale. Site bottom water is collected and analyzed in the laboratory to employ a single point calibration to the data during post-processing. Another discrete water sample is collected months after instrument deployment to determine uncertainty (2018-2019 season: 0.002).

Raw data mzXML and MATLAB code for Variation in chemical composition of dissolved organic matter during the winter to spring transition in the northern Barents Sea
<p>MATLAB code and raw data mzXML for Variation in chemical composition of dissolved organic matter during the winter to spring transition in the northern Barents Sea.</p> <p>Seawater samples were collected during three distinct periods: early winter (December 2019), late winter (March 2021), and spring (May 2021). The sampling transect extended from the northern Barents Sea into the Nansen Basin (76°N – 83°N) as part of <em>The Nansen Legacy</em> project (Research Council of Norway, RCN #276730). The molecular composition of dissolved organic matter (DOM) was analyzed using an Orbitrap mass spectrometer.</p>
Pan‐Arctic Coastal Settlements and Infrastructure Vulnerable to Coastal Erosion, Sea‐Level Rise, and Permafrost Thaw
<p>The datasets are issued from the combination of records of the ESA EO4PAC and Permafrost_cci and HORIZON 2020 Nunataryuk projects. The EO4PAC project aimed to develop a new generation of geospatial products for the observation of permafrost and associated changes from space with a special focus on the coastal Arctic. Four components were considered in the creation of the datasets:</p> <p>(1) Landsat-7/8 for the detection of coastline changes over the 2000-2020 period (Tanguy et al., 2024).</p> <p>(2) Sentinel-1/2 for the detection and mapping of coastal infrastructures (Bartsch et al. 2024), updating Wang et al. (2021).</p> <p>(3) Permafrost_cci timeseries for retrieval of trends of ground temperature and active layer thickness for the 2000-2020 period (Obu et al. 2021a,b), evaluated based on Martin et al (2023) and CALM et al. (2024).</p> <p>(4) Sea level rise by 2100 (Garner et al. 2022).</p> <p>The respective output provides a consistent mapping of settlements along arctic and permafrost-dominated coasts (2), and associated coastline and permafrost conditions changes during the last 20 years (1, 3). Combined together, an assessment of Arctic infrastructures at risk due to permafrost change (GT, ALT) and coastline erosion was possible, the latter with projections for the years 2030, 2050 and 2100.<a name="_heading=h.jkogrw14ymt"></a></p> <p>References</p> <p>Bartsch, Annett, Pointner, Georg, & Nitze, Ingmar.

Arctic sea ice velocity in summer from AMSR2 (2013-2023)
<p>Sea ice drift in summer plays a key role in Arctic sea ice mass balance and navigation safety of the Arctic Passage. Resulted from surface melt over sea ice and atmospheric water vapor, previous passive microwave sea ice velocity data present relatively poor quality in summer than in winter. Here, based on an improved sea ice velocity retrieval method, we produced daily Arctic sea ice velocity data during summertime (May 1st to September 30th) from 2013 to 2023. These sea ice velocity data are derived from the daily gridded AMSR2 brightness temperature (TB) at 36.5 GHz channel distributed by the University of Bremen using the continuous maximum cross-correlation algorithm. We used the polarization difference of TB to track the displacement of the sea ice templates. The size of templates is 11×11 pixels, and the spatial spacing between adjacent templates is five pixels. The time interval of this data is 24 h, and the spatial resolution is 62.5 km. Outliers were identified and discarded by surface wind (10-m wind derived from ERA5 atmospheric reanalysis) and surrounding sea ice velocity vectors. Vectors over open water areas were discarded by sea ice concentration with 6.25 km distributed by the University of Bremen.</p>

Early EASE-GRID Sea Ice Age, 1978-1983
<p>Early spin-up period Arctic sea ice age data for 1978 through 1983. This product augments the NSIDC sea ice age product: "EASE-Grid Sea Ice Age, Version 4.1" (Tschudi et al., 2019a), which begins in January 1984. See the main product website for complete documentation. The age is estimated via Lagrangrian tracking based on the NSIDC sea ice motion product (Tschudi et al., 2019b), whose source data is primarily passive microwave brightness temperatures and drifting buoys. Age is estimated weekly as annual age categories. Values are: 1 for "first-year ice", ice that is 0-1 years old, and so on for older ice. The ice is "aged" once each year during the week of the annual sea ice minimum extent, generally sometime in September. </p> <p>In this product, the initialization of the field begins with the first available data in late-October 1978. For the existing ice at that time, age is initialized at the start of the product with age=1. The first week of the data, because it is after the minimum, the age of existing ice is augmented to age=2 and new ice is given age=1. So, the first field in 1978 has only two age categories of 1 (0-1 years old) or 2 (1-2 years old) and this continues through 1978. This means that the age of the ice that formed between the minimum in September and the beginning of the data in late-October 1978 is overestimated by one year. In subsequent years, the oldest ice category will continue to overestimate some of the ice pack until that initial ice either: (1) melts, (2) is transported out of the Arctic, or (3) reaches the maximum age in the product (16 years).<br> <br> Much of the the existing ice in 1978 may be older than 1-2 years old as ice may stay in the Arctic for 5 or more years, but the data availability and the Lagrangian methodology cannot give a specific until the product is fully "spun up". For each subsequent year, a one-year older age category is added in the week of each year's extent minimum. Note that due to the assumption made at the beginning of the product in 1978, the oldest ice category may overestimate the true age of some parcels by one year. </p> <p>Tschudi, M., W. N. Meier, J.

Carbon flux from aquatic ecosystems of the Arctic Coastal Plain along the Beaufort Sea, Alaska, 2010-2018
Multiple aquatic ecosystems (pond, lake, river, lagoon, ocean) on the Arctic Coastal Plain (ACP) near Utqiaġvik, AK were visited to determine their relative contribution to landscape-level atmospheric CO2 flux and how this may have changed over time. pCO2 (partial pressure of carbon dioxide) was monitored in late summer (late July to mid-August) over a period of four years (2013, 2015, 2017, 2018) from open water areas and is related to habitat type, dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and environmental factors (temperature, radiation, rainfall). Data include both daily averages from most sites, as well as spatial representation of pCO2 in Elson Lagoon and diel cycles of pCO2 from a tundra pond. Pond NEP (net ecosystem production) is estimated by free water metabolism and presented as daily estimates over a four summer period.
Photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) time series from lagoon sites along the Alaska Beaufort Sea coast, 2018-ongoing
To understand seasonality and production as part of the Beaufort Lagoon Ecosystem Long Term Ecological Research program, photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) is recorded in situ, starting August 2018 across the Beaufort Sea coast. Spherical quantum sensors measure PAR ~0.5 m above the benthos at underwater mooring locations and cosine sensors measure incident PAR at the surface at a permanent land-based station.
