MARLEY (Monitoring deep-seA coRaL EcosYstems) is a deep seafloor observing system dedicated to the monitoring of cold-water coral habitats. The system is deployed in the Lampaul canyon off Brittany, France since August 2021 and maintained each year during the ChEReef-Obs cruises. The study site is a coral garden dominated by Madrepora oculata, located on a sedimented platform at 780 m depth. MARLEY is equipped with a CTD SBE 37-SIP, an oxygen optode Aanderaa (4330 or 4831), an ADCP Teledyne RDI Workhorse 300kHz, a turbidity sensor Wetlabs ECO NTU (sensitivity: 0-1000 NTU), a sediment trap Technicap PPS 4/3 – 24 bottles and a camera module. The camera module, which can be moved from up to 30 m from the main station, is equipped with a camera AXIS Q1786, two flash lights and a fluorometer & scattering meter SEA-BIRD ECO FLNTU. All sensors are controlled and synchronised by the Communication and Storage Front-end - 2nd generation (COSTOF2), which is also managing data storage. Optical sensors are protected from fouling by electrochlorination (20 seconds, each 6 hours). The oxygen optode is calibrated each year prior to deployment. These datasets provide raw data from the oxygen optode Aandera 4831, the CTD Seabird SBE37, the Wetlabs ECO NTU and the SEAR-BIRD ECO FLNTU covering the period 28/08/2021 to 19/01/2022, with a frequency of 15 minutes. Data from Wetlabs ECO NTU include raw counts and Nephelometric Turbidity Unit (NTU) derived from manufacturer’s calibration with Scale Factor = 0.0611 and Dark Counts = 50. Data form SEABIRD ECO FLNTU include raw counts at 695 nm (Chlorophyll) and 700 nm (Turbidity). Chlorophyll concentration (µg/l) is derived from manufacturer’s calibration with Scale Factor = 0.0180 and Dark Counts = 48. Nephelometric Turbidity Unit (NTU) is derived from manufacturer’s calibration with Scale Factor = 0.0481 and Dark Counts = 50.

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.

The Universidad del Caribe responds to the demand for technical support for the elaboration of specific bathymetric charts for a polygon of 458 Ha that is located between the Isla Contoy National Park and Cayo Alcatraz. The objective was to make a bathymetric map of the polygon and point out the main characteristics or morphological features. Likewise, CTD cast were carried out to have a database with future application to mariculture, with the purpose of contributing to the economic development of communities in Quintana Roo through economic diversification and regional cultural identity and promoting fair trade and solidarity that favor the production and consumption of original products.This activities of the Node for the Promotion of the Social and Solidarity Economy (NODESS) called Selva, Mar y Comunidad Pre Registration Folio SINCA_PNSS_20_00009_INAES, made up of the Universidad del Caribe, Directorate of Economic Promotion of the H.

The Slocum G2 Glider MIA was deployed in the Gulf of Finland, Baltic Sea, in May-June 2018. The glider sampled an 18 km long section (S–N direction). This data set is the processed delayed time CTD data from that mission. Processing included applying standard quality control and considering response times and thermal lag. The data were binned, and half YOS were arranged as profiles, meaning the variables in the data set are presented as 2D fields.

Here we provide data from the Ross Ice Shelf ocean cavity.  Location  -  The HWD2 Camp was established in October of 2017 at 80o 39.497’S, 174o 27.678’E where the ice is moving seaward at around ~600 m a-1 and is sourced from the Transantarctic Mountains.  Profiling Instruments -  Profiling was primarily conducted with an RBR Concerto CTD (conductivity-temperature depth) profiling instrument, and this was cross-calibrated against irregular profiles with an RBR Duet (pressure and temperature only), a SBE37 MicroCat CTD as well as moored SBE37 MicroCat CTDs.  The RBR unit is small and has suitable sensor capability (temperature and conductivity accuracies of ±0.002°C and ±0.003 mS cm-1).  Its conductivity cell design is not prone to fouling by ice crystals, making it ideal for work in the sometimes crystal-laden borehole conditions.   We were inconsistent in how we mounted the CTD on its protective frame and this appeared to make small difference in the conductivity signal (resulting in an ~0.03 psu variation).  This was post-corrected based on the essentially invariant mooring data from the lower water column as well as SBE37 cross-calibration profile data. Because of the potential for sediment contamination of the sensors, the profiles were mostly conservative in their proximity to the sea floor. On several occasions, profiles were conducted all the way to the sea floor. The temperature and salinity are presented in EOS-80 in order to compare with available data.  Eighty three profiles are provided here (ctd_HWD2_*.dat). In addition, limited microstructure profiling was conducted to provide insight into some of the mixing details. The profiles were conducted by lowering the instrument to the ice base then commencing a sequence of three up-down “yo-yos” before returning to the surface and downloading. A data segment is included here (VMP_HWD2.dat). There were some challenges registering the vertical coordinate for the profiles.  The melting of the borehole generates a trapped pool of relatively fresh water.  The interface between this and the ocean should be near the base of the hole or a little higher – with seawater intrusion.  However, there were some instances where the interface was at a higher pressure (i.e. apparently in the open water column). The best explanation for this is that the water in the borehole is not at static equilibrium for some period after initial melting. We use 34.3 psu as a cut-off, in addition to a pressure criterion to identify the top of the useful oceanic profile.  It is also not inconceivable that water was being ejected from the hole, but it is unlikely that this would have impacted in the consistent observed pattern.  Instrumented Mooring - The mooring instruments at HWD2-A comprised 5 Nortek Aquadopp single point current meters in titanium housings reporting to the surface (30-minute interval, Table SI-Three) via an inductive modem to a Sound-9 data logger and Iridium transmitter. The current meter measurements were corrected to account for the 138o magnetic declination offset (i.e. the south magnetic pole is to the north-west of the field site).  Five files are provided here (HWD2_Init_rcm*.dat4).  Details in: Stevens C, Hulbe C, Brewer M, Stewart C, Robinson N, Ohneiser C and Jendersie J, 2020.

This dataset contains the controled temperature data in °C from the two temperature sensor (Bottom and Top) inside the CISICS colonizer deployed between September 2016 and February 2017 (n=24924) inside the Aisics Chimney. (data acquired every 15 min.)

The principal aim of the Tyrrhenian Eddy Multi-Platform Observations (TEMPO) experiment  (1989-1993) was to study the signature of a mesoscale oceanographic eddy in the north Tyrrhenian Sea, between Italy, Corsica and Sardinia, using space-borne and airborne remote sensing and ship-based measuring techniques, but an effort was made to extend the observations in the southern part of the Tyrrhenian sea and throughout the water column.  The data contained in this dataset concerns the cruises TEMPO-3 (from 25 October to 8 November 1991, 44 stations), TEMPO-4 (from 23 April to 4 May 1992, 41 stations), and TEMPO-5 (from 8 to 13 March 1993, 71 stations). CTD profiles were collected using a Neil-Brown MK III CTD probe with a sampling time of 33 ms and a CTD fall speed of about 1 m/s. The temperature, conductivity and pressure sensors were calibrated at the SACLANT Centre in La Spezia before the cruise and again checked after its conclusion. Water samples were collected for the on-board calibration of the probe values. The final accuracies for the temperature and salinity were0.005 °C and 0.005, respectively. Successively the data were interpolated over 1 dbar interval. The data set is provided per cruise as ODV Spreadsheet files in TXT format, containing: Cruise name Station number Type of acquisition (here C) Date in mon/day/yr and Time in hh:mm:ss Coordinates in Longitude [degrees_east] and Latitude [degrees_north] Bottom depth [m] Depth [m] Temperature_IPTS-68 [deg C] Conductivity [S/m] Temperature_ITS-90 [deg C] Salinity_PSS-78 (Practical Salinity) Dissolved Oxygen [ml/l]   Important Note: This submission has been initially submitted to SEA scieNtific Open data Edition (SEANOE) publication service and received the recorded DOI.
