A Dataset for Investigating Socio-ecological Changes in Arctic Fjords

The collection of in situ data is generally a costly process, with the Arctic being no exception. Indeed, there has been a perception that the Arctic lacks for in situ sampling; however, after many years of concerted effort and international collaboration, the Arctic is now rather well sampled with many cruise expeditions every year. For example, the GLODAP product has a greater density of in situ sample points within the Arctic than along the equator. While this is useful for open ocean processes, the fjords of the Arctic, which serve as crucially important intersections of terrestrial, coastal, and marine processes, are sampled in a much more ad hoc process. This is not to say they are not well sampled, but rather that the data are more difficult to source and combine for further analysis. It was therefore noted that the fjords of the Arctic are lacking in FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) data. […]

实地数据集的收集通常是一项成本高昂的过程，北极地区也不例外。实际上，长期以来存在一种观念，认为北极缺乏实地采样；然而，经过多年的共同努力和国际合作，北极地区现已得到了较为充分的采样，每年都有许多巡航考察。例如，GLODAP产品在北极的实地样本点密度高于赤道地区。虽然这对开放海洋过程的研究具有重要意义，但作为陆地、海岸和海洋过程重要交汇点的北极峡湾，其采样过程却显得更为随意。这并非意味着它们没有得到充分的采样，而是指这些数据在获取和合并以供进一步分析时更为困难。因此，人们指出，北极峡湾在FAIR（可发现性、可访问性、互操作性和可重复使用性）数据方面存在不足。
