Data underlying publication: Salinity and Volatile Organic Compounds in Engine Room air of a Sea-Going Vessel

Data files underlying publication soon to be published in the Journal of Maritime Technology (JMET). The research objective of this study was to analyze the salt content (Na+, Cl- and K+ ions) as well as the VOC content (52 types including naphthalene, toluene and benzene) of engine room air of a sea-going vessel. Air was sampled both on the ship deck and inside the engine room of a vessel from Van Dam shipping. Samples were taken in different weather conditions (varying precipitation, wind speed) and analyzed with help of TNO.<br>Data types include:(i) raw data of the air salt filters and VOC air samples (by TNO);(ii) logging data of the ship position, date, time, fuel oil consumption and wind speed (by Van Dam Shipping and Marin);(iii) notes taken by the shipper during sampling (by Van Dam shipper);(iv) Excel files combining relevant data of shipper notes and raw TNO data (to feed Matlab analysis);(v) Matlab code to analyze the data;<br>For a more elaborate description of the files and content, check the README file.

本数据集为即将发表于《海事技术期刊（Journal of Maritime Technology, JMET）》的学术论文配套基础数据。本研究的核心目标为分析某远洋船舶机舱空气中的盐分（钠离子(Na+)、氯离子(Cl-)与钾离子(K+)）以及挥发性有机化合物（Volatile Organic Compounds, VOC）含量，共涵盖萘、甲苯、苯在内的52类物质。

研究团队从Van Dam航运公司所属船舶的甲板及机舱内采集空气样本，采样覆盖不同气象条件（包括变化的降水量、风速），并由TNO协助完成样本分析工作。

本次数据集包含以下五类数据：
(i) 由TNO提供的空气盐分滤膜与VOC空气样本原始数据；
(ii) 由Van Dam Shipping与Marin提供的船舶位置、日期、时间、燃油消耗量及风速日志数据；
(iii) 由Van Dam航运方在采样期间记录的现场笔记；
(iv) 整合了航运方采样笔记与TNO原始数据的Excel文件，用于支撑Matlab数据分析；
(v) 用于数据分析的Matlab代码；
