This dataset gathers the names of 86 species of fish as well as their trophic category, abundance and biomass per replicate, sampled by bottom trawling in Posidonia oceanica beds in three main geographic areas (Marseille, Port-Cros Island and Galeria in Corsica) of the Mediterranean French coast. Samples were collected by bottom trawling performed in seagrass meadows between 10 and 40 m depth at different seasons (summer-winter) and period (day-night) at several occasions between 1980 and 2013. This dataset is a witness of the structure, functioning and evolution of fish assemblages in north-western Mediterranean Posidonia oceanica beds.

A survey was carried out in the marine area southwest of Puerto Morelos, specifically in the area that corresponds to the Puerto Morelos Arrecife National Park. In order to study the marine currents and the associated phenomena, a route was made from the coast towards the open sea, up to approximately 2 km, a value far from that proposed in the planning because the climatic conditions were not favorable. This tour was carried out on September 11, 2019 in the morning, lasting approximately 2 hours, where measurements were made at 6 stations; From station 3 the swell began to be noticed, stations 4 and 5 were located inside the reef and the sixth station was on the dock. The variables measured were: temperature, wind direction and speed, relative humidity and turbidity. The CTD measurements were processed using contour & surface-mapping software surfer 8 to generate temperature profiles, and a map of the course was created in QGIS with the coordinates recorded with the GPS. Measurements of wind speed and direction made it possible to explain its influence on the general circulation of the sea surface.

We combine consistently dated benthic carbon isotopic records distributed over the entire Atlantic Ocean with numerical simulations performed by a glacial configuration of the Norwegian Earth System Model with active ocean biogeochemistry, in order to interpret the observed Cibicides d13C changes at the stadial-interstadial transition corresponding to the end of Heinrich Stadial 4 (HS4) in terms of ocean circulation and remineralization changes. We show that the marked increase in Cibicides d13C observed at the end of HS4 between ~2000 and 4200 m in the Atlantic can be explained by changes in nutrient concentrations as simulated by the model in response to the halting of freshwater input in the high latitude glacial North Atlantic. Our model results show that this Cibicides d13C signal is associated with changes in the ratio of southern-sourced (SSW) versus northern-sourced (NSW) water masses at the core sites, whereby SSW is replaced by NSW as a consequence of the resumption of deep water formation in the northern North Atlantic and Nordic Seas after the freshwater input is halted. Our results further suggest that the contribution of ocean circulation changes to this signal increases from ~40% at 2000 m to ~80% at 4000 m. Below ~4200 m, the model shows little ocean circulation change but an increase in remineralization across the transition marking the end of HS4. The simulated lower remineralization during stadials than interstadials is particularly pronounced in deep subantarctic sites, in agreement with the decrease in the export production of carbon to the deep Southern Ocean during stadials found in previous studies.

Physical data associated with the AMAZOMIX cruise. The Amazon shelf encompasses a variety of physical processes, such as fluvial inputs, coastal currents, mesoscale, filaments, tides, internal waves and upwelling, influencing nutrient concentrations, chlorophyll and suspended matter. They also affect energy, salt and heat balances; parameters that condition physical/biogeochemical interactions and ecosystem functioning, from bacteria to plankton to fish resources. In particular, internal tidal waves are very energetic in this region. They impact biogeochemical cycles via the vertical mixture induced by their dissipation or vertical movements induced by their propagation. They thus allow a significant input of nutriments into the euphotic layer enhancing primary production, as observed on the surface from watercolour data. Internal tidal waves could thus influence the biological pump and the carbon cycle. In addition, overall marine biodiversity of the region, from bacteria to fish is not well described. The connectivity of species in the tropical Atlantic is also still an open question. The Caribbean region is by far more bio-diverse than the Brazilian one. One of the hypotheses is that the Amazon plume, which can extend up to 3,000 km off the mouth, would constitute a barrier for some organisms. The Amazon Shelf is thus an ideal experimental laboratory to study the impact of physical processes on the structure and function of neritic and oceanic marine ecosystems. In this context, the objective of the multidisciplinary AMAZOMIX survey was to study the impact of the Amazon River plume, internal tides and associated turbulent mixing, on marine ecosystem in contrasting regions off the Amazon shelf. For that purpose, the multidisciplinary AMAZOMIX project brings together physicists, biogeochemists, bioopticians and biologists. The sampling strategy consists in the simultaneous acquisition of a comprehensive set of environmental and biological compartments, including micro-organisms (bacteria, phyto and zooplankton) and higher trophic levels (micronekton, demersal and pelagic fish). AMAZOMIX is the first campaign to develop this multi-disciplinary approach off the Amazon shelf. In situ results will be analysed in interaction with digital tools and data, modelling (1/36°, with and without tides, 1/12° coupled) and satellite data analyses.
