The dataset contains the results of the monitoring activity in distinct years in Slovenian coastal waters related to contaminants in sediments and biota.

National monitoring data, originated by Slovenian Environment Agency - the area covered is Slovenian waters - metal and non-metal contaminants, dissolved in sea water

The measurements of SPM, particulate TN, TC, Fe, Mn, Al and chlorophyll a, as well as light absorption at 750 nm and 380 nm were done within Estonia-Latvia transboundary project "Towards joint management of the transboundary Gauja/Koiva river basin district" for harmonization of water quality classification system for transboundary water bodies in the Gauja/Koiva river basin district and adjacent areas (in Estonia) in the Gulf of Riga." Measurements were done once in August 2012 along with underwater video observation, water transparency and CTD measurements in coastal waters in shallow part (2 - 12m) of the East coast of the Gulf of Riga. Data were used for Final report on assessment of the quality status of the transboundary water bodies (coastal, lakes, rivers) in Gauja/Koiva river basin district (2013. Kalvane I. and Veidemane K. (eds.))

This dataset describes the dissolved cobalt and manganese distributions in the East China Sea. Other parameters such as salinity, water temperature, potential density, dissolved oxygen, and nutrient (nitrate, phosphate, and silicate) concentrations are also included. Seawater samples used for generating this dataset were obtained during the KS-15-6 cruise onboard R/V Shinsei Maru between July and August 2015 (Stn1 to Stn15), and during the KH-15-3 cruise onboard R/V Hakuho Maru in October 2015 (F1, D4, B8, and I1). Dissolved cobalt concentrations were determined using cathodic stripping voltammetry at the University of Tokyo and by using inductively coupled plasma - mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) at Kanazawa University, Japan. Meanwhile, dissolved manganese concentrations were determined using ICP-MS at both the University of Tokyo and Kanazawa University. All samples were irradiated with ultraviolet light before analysis. Important Note: This submission has been initially submitted to SEA scieNtific Open data Edition (SEANOE) publication service and received the recorded DOI. The metadata elements have been further processed (refined) in EMODnet Ingestion Service in order to conform with the Data Submission Service specifications.

Coastal marine sediments receive intensive stress from urbanization and industrialization, which is manifested by increased contents of heavy metals and organic pollutants. Saronikos Gulf and the small embayment of Elefsis, stretch along the coast of the greater Athens and Pireaus port, the most urbanized and industrialized areas in Greece. Here we present the data of a 20-years geochemical record on grain-size, organic carbon, and major and trace elements contents of the Saronikos Gulf sediments. A total of 216 sediment samples were collected within the period of 1999 to 2018 from the four sub-sectors of the gulf, namely, the Elefsis Bay, the Inner, Outer, and Western (Megara and Epidavros basin) Saronikos Gulf. Additionally, at least one core was obtained from each sub-sector. Sediments deposited at pre-industrial periods were recognized by 14C and 210Pb datings, and served for establishing regionalized, background levels of metals. Factor analysis was conducted to reveal the inter-parametric relationships, thus their common sources, as well as transport and deposition pathways. Then, Enrichment Factors and the multi-elemental Modified Pollution Index (MPI) were calculated to assess the current environmental status of the sediments. Data of sampling sites with at least a five-year record, were assessed for temporal trends, to explore whether sustained, increasing or decreasing trends of the MPI are observed. The dataset and analyses presented here support the research article entitled Geochemistry of major and trace elements in surface sediments of the Saronikos Gulf (Greece): assessment of contamination between 1999 and 2018 by Karageorgis A.P., Botsou F., Kaberi H., and Iliakis S., https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.137046
