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.

The Green Edge project was designed to investigate the onset, life and fate of a phytoplankton spring bloom (PSB) in the Arctic Ocean. The lengthening of the ice-free period and the warming of seawater, amongst other factors, have induced major changes in arctic ocean biology over the last decades. Because the PSB is at the base of the Arctic Ocean food chain, it is crucial to understand how changes in the arctic environment will affect it. Green Edge was a large multidisciplinary collaborative project bringing researchers and technicians from 28 different institutions in seven countries, together aiming at understanding these changes and their impacts on the future. The fieldwork for the Green Edge project took place over two years (2015 and 2016) and was carried out from both an ice camp and a research vessel in the Baffin Bay, Canadian arctic. Here, we describe the data set obtained during the research cruise, which took place aboard the Canadian Coast Guard Ship (CCGS) Amundsen in spring 2016.

This dataset contains the CTD data collected during the GOMBESSA 6 cruise, from 1 to 12 July 2021, in Corsica, western Mediterranean, jointly by the (MARBEC MARine Biodiversity, Exploitation and Conservation)-[http://www.umr-marbec.fr/en/?lang=en] (France) teams. The full-depth CTD profiles were performed using an autonomous SeaBird SBE 19plus V2 SeaCAT Profiler CTD, from the Pionnier vessel belonging to (Seaowl)-[https://web.facebook.com/page.andromede/?_rdc=1&_rdr] France and chartered by the French Navy. Nine stations, from the depth of 115 m to the surface, were sampled off the Corsica coasts (western Mediterranean basin) between latitude 43.11-43.74 °N and longitude 9.49-9.52 °E. The acquisition rate was 4 Hz. The accuracy, specified by the manufacturer, were ± 0.005 °C for temperature and ± 0.0005 S/m for conductivity. The dataset is provided in different formats (CSV, NetCDF, Ocean Data View collection), which contains, for each station the following parameters: Depth [salt_water,m] Temperature [ITS-90,deg-C] pH Salinity, Practical [PSU] Conductivity [S/m] Density [kg/m^3] Oxygen [mL/L] Oxygen_sat [% saturation] Oxygen_umoll [umol/L] Turbidity [NTU] Fluorescence [mg/m^3] Light [PAR/Irradiance] QC (reference: OceanSITES quality flags http://www.oceansites.org/docs/oceansites_user_manual_version1.2.doc) Julian Days and UTC time (yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss.sss) The ZIP archives contain 1/ a map of stations 2/ the list of the ID stations, geographic coordinates and general metadata 3/ all raw data acquired, for all parameters, in CNV format, 4/ the downcasts and upcasts in CSV format, 5/ the upcasts only in ODV, 6/ NetCDF and 7/ TXT formats, and 8/ two vertical profile graphs including all stations (sea water temperature and oxygen). All data acquired are publicly accessible without any restriction (under CC-BY licence). The extracted data are accessible from this GOMBESSA 6 landing page with a downloadable ZIP file.

FIGURE project aims to study the fine scales shaping nitrogen fixation in the Gulf Stream where CARING project studies the Carbon irrigation to the North-Atlantic by the Gulf stream. The sampling strategy comprises CTD and discrete sampling of the water column between surface and 2000 dbar as a maximum depth along two transects. CTD and bottle data have been processed by LOPS/Ifremer

The objective of the TONGA oceanographic expedition was to study the control of productivity and carbon sequestration by micronutrients of shallow hydrothermal origin in the Western Tropical South Pacific (WTSP) Ocean. The 37-day oceanographic survey took place on board the R/V L’Atalante in 2019 between Oct. 31 to Dec. 6 (Nouméa-Nouméa). Over a large area of the WTSP the team acquired numerous results on both the entire water column (up to the sediment) and the atmosphere. Specific task are represented on figure 1: (task 1) to characterize chemically and optically shallow hydrothermal fluids and to compare the source from below (shallow hydrothermal fluids) with the source from above (atmospheric deposition); (task 2) to quantify the dynamical dispersion of the fluids at small and regional scale; (task 3) to investigate the impact of the shallow hydrothermal sources on the biological activity and diversity, and the feedback to the atmosphere via the oceanic emissions of primary and secondary aerosols. (Task 4) to communicate about the campaign (see for example our Tweeter account (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UeABf-cVR-k). A long west to east (up to the blue waters of the gyre) transect allowed to characterize the different biogeochemical provinces crossed and a focus in the region of the Lau Basin allowed to investigate the impact of shallow hydrothermal sources. A series of short and long stations allowed to fully characterize the stocks and the fluxes in the different provinces. Short-term (up to 10 days) processes studies have been conducted (drifting moorings and minicosms experiments). Part of these results will feed into important modeling work. A fixed mooring line launched at the end of the campaign and recovered in Nov. 2020 as well as the 7 ARGO floats and 20 drifting buoys that were dropped during the campaign provide a broader temporal context of the acquisitions done during the campaign. An important focus of the campaign was the trace metal characterization of the entire water column. For this, TONGA has been labeled by the international program GEOTRACES (https://www.geotraces.org/). The impact on biological communities of fluids is supported by the international IMBER program (https://imber.info/). The TONGA project is also part of the LEFE program (funding by LEFE-CYBER and LEFE-GMMC), the ANR (Appel à projets génériques) and the Fondation A-MIDeX of the Aix-Marseille Université.
