Seasonal sea ice indices including the timing of ice-edge advance and ice-edge retreat (in year day), the ice season duration (in days) and number of actual ice days (versus open water days) within the ice season, extracted for various PAL LTER sub-regions West of the Antarctic Peninsula and derived from passive microwave satellite data for 1979/80 to 2023/24 ice seasons.
Seasonal sea ice indices including the timing of ice-edge advance and ice-edge retreat (in year day), the ice season duration (in days) and number of actual ice days (versus open water days) within the ice season, extracted for various PAL LTER sub-regions West of the Antarctic Peninsula and derived from passive microwave satellite data for 1979/80 to 2023/24 ice seasons. The ice season duration is defined as the time elapsed between day of ice-edge advance and day of ice-edge retreat within a given sea ice year, which begins mid-February (mean minimum of summer sea ice extent for the Southern Ocean) and ends the following mid-February. See Stammerjohn et al (2008, JGR) for further details.

A data repository for: Changing phytoplankton phenology in the marginal ice zone west of the Antarctic Peninsula
<p>This data repository is a permanent archive of the results presented in the associated publication (Turner et al. 2024, Marine Ecology Progress Series, <a href="https://doi.org/10.3354/meps14567">https://doi.org/10.3354/meps14567</a>). The objective of this study was to investigate phytoplankton phenology patterns west of the Antarctic Peninsula using satellite ocean color remote sensing data. This dataset extends from 80<sup>o</sup>W to 55<sup>o</sup>W longitude and from 70<sup>o</sup>S to 60<sup>o</sup>S latitude. The data span the time period September 1997 through August 2022. This dataset includes the data and code used to create the figures in the publication. The data in this repository include chlorophyll-a concentration (Chl-a), dates of phytoplankton bloom start date and phytoplankton bloom peak date, photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), sea surface temperature (SST), wind speed, and dates of sea ice retreat and advance. Downloaded spatially-subsetted data files are included as netCDF files (extension .nc) compressed into .zip archives. Additional files used to perform the analyses and make the figures are included as MATLAB scripts and MATLAB data files (extensions .m and .mat, respectively). </p> <p>Recommended citation:</p> <p>Turner, Jessica S., (2024) A data repository for: Changing phytoplankton phenology in the marginal ice zone west of the Antarctic Peninsula.

IODP Expedition 382: Supplementary Tables for "Episodes of early Pleistocene West Antarctic Ice Sheet retreat recorded by Iceberg Alley sediments"
<p>IODP Expedition 382: Supplementary Tables for "Episodes of early Pleistocene West Antarctic Ice Sheet retreat recorded by Iceberg Alley sediments"</p> <p>Includes SEM QEMSCAN® and <sup>40</sup>Ar/<sup>39</sup>Ar data for International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Expedition 382 Site U1538. Also includes a movie of a 3D-volume realization of an iceberg-rafted sedimentary layer from this site based on non-destructive X-ray microtomography imaging.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Data Set Captions:</strong></p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Data Set S1. </strong>Modal mineralogy data based on QEMSCAN® analyses, which infer minerals from chemistry. The mineral name assignations for each chemistry-based category stated in this table are aided by visual (microscope-based) inspection of the raw sieved samples.</p> <p><strong>Data Set S2. </strong>Mineral association data based on QEMSCAN® analyses. Please read data in columns, mineral against mineral (down then across left). These data define what touches what in the sample and is displayed as a percentage. Association refers to adjacency. Two minerals are “associated” if a pixel of one of the minerals occurs adjacent to a pixel of the other mineral. iExplorer software used scans the measured particles horizontally, from left to right, counting the associations that occur in the images (so the more pixels/closer the x-ray spacing the more accurate the data). Each column is independent. That is, it is split into a percentage of what touches what, so it is not expected that any two minerals’ data are reciprocal. The background category primarily reflects the free boundaries of ‘grains’ rather than liberated grains/particles. While it may provide an indicator of liberation, it does not represent liberation since it does not describe ‘particles’ which are made up of mineral grains. Inclusions and composite particles are therefore not described. Please consider the modal mineralogy (Tab. S1) when examining these mineral association data.</p> <p><strong>Data Set S3. </strong>Lithotyping data based on QEMSCAN® analyses. Particles have been digitally filtered using a set of lithotype rules (also displayed in this data set). These rules are based on the mineral grains in the particles themselves and use their area percent within each particle and their size in microns. The lithotype names stated here are largely assigned based on the dominant mineral grain in each category.</p> <p><strong>Data Set S4. </strong>40Ar/39Ar ages of individual sand-sized hornblende and mica. See main text for method used to generate these ages.</p> <p><strong>Data Set S5.</strong> Ties to place Hole U1538A NGR data on Dove Basin Stack (Reilly et al., 2021) depths.</p> <p><strong>Movie S1. </strong>3D-volume realization based on non-destructive X-ray microtomography imaging of a centimeter-scale iceberg-rafted debris-rich layer in Hole U1538A-36X-3W. 3D images were generated using a helical scanning trajectory that allows for long scan sequences and fast acquisition time. Based on the sample geometry, a voxel (pixel) resolution of ~14-μm was achieved. The 7000+ projection images were reconstructed to produce a 3D volume of image intensities (where higher values indicate greater x-ray attenuation). Avizo software was used for 3D segmentation and volume rendering to visualize gravel and sand to create this animation. The different colors assigned to each clast were chosen arbitrary.</p>
