Environmental data and microorganism composition from the HAVOC sea ice ridge study during the MOSAiC expedition (PS122) in the Central Arctic Ocean 2019-2020@en

This dataset gives an overview of environmental data including temperature, salinity, brine volume fraction (for sea ice only), dissolved nutrients, particulate organic carbon and nitrogen, particulate elemental concentration, as well as chlorophyll a concentrations, bacterial production and the abundance of microorganisms either enumerated using light microscopy (organisms between 20 µm – 300 µm) or flow cytometry (FCM for organisms smaller than 20 µm) of HAVOC sea ice ridge specific samples, taken during the Multidisciplinary drifting observatory for the study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) during leg 2, 3 and 4 (December 2019 – August 2020). Additional expedition and sampling details can be found in the ECO-overview paper (Fong et al., 2024). We thank all persons involved in the expedition of the Research Vessel Polarstern during MOSAiC in 2019-2020 (AWI_PS122_00) as listed in Nixdorf et al. (2021). […]
