Sea water temperature from an ADCP at the Munkholmen buoy in the Trondheim fjord

The dataset includes continuous velocity, direction, and depth measurements in 9 fixed locations (3x3 grid) in the Gulf of Riga, Baltic Sea. It is a space-time-aligned dataset of continuous velocity, direction, and depth measurements near Skulte, the Gulf of Riga, Baltic Sea (Eelsalu et al. 2025, Proceedings of the Estonian Academy of Sciences). All sensors measured 0.4m from the bottom of the sea. The measurements are done using a Hall effect sensor-based velocity profiler called Hydromast (Egerer et al. 2024, IEEE sensors). The minimum velocity provided in this dataset is 0.12m/s, validated with ADV. If the velocity is under this threshold, the velocity and direction read NaN. The depth and temperature measurements are valid at all times.

Approximately 25% of Antarctic Bottom Water has its origin as dense water exiting the western Ross Sea, but little is known about what controls the release of dense water plumes from the Drygalski Trough. We deployed two moorings on the slope from February, 2018, to January, 2019, to investigate the water properties of the bottom water exiting the region at Cape Adare and the relationship with the seasonal cycle, winds, and tides. Mooring P2 was placed at 1750 metres depth on the slope at Cape Adare at the same location as an earlier deployment of mooring CA1 in the CALM experiment (Gordon et al., 2015). Instruments on P2 were placed at the same depths as CA1 to continue that time series. Mooring P3 was placed on the same isobath on the slope at the mouth of the Drygalski Trough to measure the water properties moving along the slope from the east. Findings from the observations are described in Bowen et al. (2021).

Deep water formed around the Antarctic continent drives the world ocean circulation. More than 50% of this deep water is formed within only about 10% of the Antarctic circumpolar band: the Weddell Sea. Subtle changes in the circulation of the Weddell Sea can lead to major changes in floating ice shelves, with critical implications for global sea-level, the production of deep water, and the global ocean overturning circulation. The Filchner Trough on the continental shelf in the southern Weddell Sea plays an important role for the water mass exchange between the cold water on the continental shelf and the warm water off the continental shelf: It serves as a conduit for relatively warm water to flow southward across the continental shelf toward the Filchner Ronne Ice shelf and for the dense, cold water produced underneath the ice shelf to flow northward off the continental shelf to feed Antarctic Bottom Water. Four moorings (P1, P2, P4, P5) were places within the inflow pathway of the warm water at the northern entrance to the Filchner Trough on the continental shelf, and one mooring (P6) was placed off the continental shelf over the deep ocean. The mooring time series cover the period from February 2017 to March 2021 and are used to investigate the processes controlling the on-shore transport of relatively warm water onto the shelf toward the ice shelf and the interaction of the warm water with the cold dense water. The moorings provide observations of the circulation on the continental shelf and the temperature variability on small (tidal) to large (seasonal, interannual) time scales.

EC1 is a subsurface mooring that has been deployed in the Ulleung Interplain Gap (UIG) since 1996. The UIG is the only deep channel connecting the northern Japan Basin and the southwestern Ulleung Basin in the East Sea (Japan Sea). The EC1 provides continuous time series data at depths ranging from 150 to 2,250 meters, enabling scientific research on circulation and water properties. It equips current-meter, conductivity, temperature, pressure, and dissolved oxygen sensors. The EC1 mooring was recovered 3 times (26 times total) and redeployed 3 times (26 times total) from November 2020 to April 2023 (since 1996), with a typical turnover time of 1 year. The equipment has been upgraded since 1996 to continuously measure temperature, pressure, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, and the speed and direction of three-dimensional current, as well as to collect more and better time series data. The sampling intervals of all sensors are equal to or less than 60 minutes. The temperature, pressure, conductivity, and dissolved oxygen data collected from November 2020 to April 2023 were quality-assured and quality-controlled with typical procedures such as global and local range tests, spike tests, and gradient tests. The magnetic declination of 9 degrees west was applied to the current data for compass calibration.   Important Note: This submission has been initially submitted to SEA scieNtific Open data Edition (SEANOE) publication service and received the recorded DOI.

This dataset consists of a glider deployment in greater Te Moana-o-Raukawa (Cook Strait) as part of the DeepSouth National Science Challenge in Aotearoa New Zealand. This submission continues from previous deployments uploaded to SEANOE (doi:10.17882/76530). Survey uses a Teledyne Webb Research Slocum G2 glider equipped with a pumped SeaBird CTD to measure conductivity, temperature, and pressure, along with instruments to measure dissolved oxygen, chlorophyll-a fluorescence, backscatter at 470, 532, 660, and 700nm, chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM), and photosynthetically active radiation (PAR). Part-way through the deployment, in order to save battery, the science package was turned on only during downcasts and these subsequently appear as empty casts in the dataset. Science data were processed using the GEOMAR Glider Toolbox (https://git.geomar.de/open-source/geomar_glider_toolbox). Comparison with the previously-utilized SOCIB (Troupin et al. (2015), doi: 10.1016/j.mio.2016.01.001) toolbox shows negligible differences in outputs. Data have been averaged into vertical bins of 1dBar (~1m). Despite processing to minimize lag-error in salinity (following Garau et al., 2011, doi: 10.1175/JTECH-D-10-0503.1), some casts (n=10, out of 4246 total) were made empty after visual inspection in T-S space. Oxygen data were lag-corrected, whereas other variables are presented as-is without further processing. Depth-integrated water velocity derived from GPS and dead-reckoning are included.

This dataset contains current data acquired between Auguest 2018 and June 2019 using 3 TCM3 Ocean Bottom Tilt Current Meters installed next to the Tour Eiffel, Montségur and Crystal hydrothermal vent sites. The TCM-3 Ocean Bottom Tilt Current Meter from Lowell Instruments LLC (North Falmouth, MA, USA) measures current using the drag-tilt principle. The logger is buoyant and is anchored to the bottom via a short flexible tether. Drag from moving water tilts the logger in the direction of flow. The logger’s accelerometer and magnetometer channels are used to record the amount of tilt and direction of tilt (compass bearing). The array comprises 3 currentmeters, deployed near the Tour Eiffel, Montségur and Crystal hydrothermal vent sites. It is not connected to an energy node. The currentmeter's internal clocks are set to UTC time before deployment. Clock drift after recovery is not implemented in data but added as metadata in file Sensor Metadata.
