Resuspension-induced CO₂ production rates and sediment characteristics from the Hauraki Gulf, New Zealand

This dataset contains CO2 production rates of resuspended and undisturbed marine surface sediments (top 3 cm) determined through the resuspension assay (Bartl et al. 2025) and surface sediment characteristics (top 3 cm) including sediment grain size, organic matter content and phytopigments. Metadata include sampling location, sampling time and water depth. This results from this dataset are presented in: Bartl and Thrush, Sediment heterogeneity shapes spatial variability of resuspension-induced CO2 production, egusphere-2025-3045.
