The Antarctic Tide Gauge (AntTG) database provides tidal harmonic coefficients (amplitude and phase) for ocean surface height (tide-induced height perturbation relative to the seabed) at many coastal, ocean and ice shelf locations around Antarctica. The coefficients are provided for up to 8 tidal constituents (Q1, O1, P1, K1, N2 , M2, S2, K2) where data is available. These coefficients are primarily intended for users interested in validation of tide models for the Antarctic seas including the areas covered by the floating ice shelves (e.g., King and Padman, 2005; King et al., 2011; Stammer et al., 2014)

Collection of XBT performed on the high density line IX28 (Dumont d Urville-Hobart) - 1990-2020

DEPTH_CH14 and TEMP_CH14 contain depth and temperature corrected values following Cheng et al, 2014 corrections, using tables updated on June 28, 2017. Temperature data from the Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere (TOGA)/World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) transect IX28 across the SOuthern Ocean has been collected since 1992 and are ongoing. The transect is repeated approximately 6 times a year, with profiles obtained approximately every 10-50 Km. The data are obtained from XBTs (expendable bathythermographs) deployed by the French Antarctic resupply vessel Astrolabe, and are managed by the French Polar Institute (IPEV) and the Joint Australian Facility for Ocean Observing Systems (JAFOOS), a collaborative venture between Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) Marine Research and the Bureau of Meteorology Research Centre (BMRC).

MEOP (Marine Mammals Exploring the Oceans Pole to Pole) is a consortium of international researchers dedicated to sharing animal-derived data and knowledge about the polar oceans.
Since 2004, several hundred thousands profiles of temperature and salinity have been collected by instrumented animals. The use of elephant seals has been particularly effective to sample the Southern Ocean and the North Pacific. Other seal species have been successfully used in the North Atlantic, such as hooded seals. These hydrographic data have been assembled in a quality-controlled database, the MEOP-CTD database.
These data are profiles of temperature (°C). Each profile is located in space and time. It must be emphasised that the dataset of each individual CTD-SRDL has been edited and corrected separately, as a given CTD-SRDL has its own specificities in terms of data accuracy and quality of the estimated correction. A post-processing procedure is applied on hydrographic data in order to ensure the best possible data quality. For more details, please visit https://www.meop.net/database/data-processing-and-validation.html.

OCEAN:ICE - Argo Profiling Floats Compilation

Argo is a global array of 3,000 free-drifting profiling floats that measures the temperature and salinity of the upper 2000 m of the ocean. This allows, for the first time, continuous monitoring of the temperature, salinity, and velocity of the upper ocean, with all data being relayed and made publicly available within hours after collection. The array provides 100,000 temperature/salinity profiles and velocity measurements per year distributed over the global oceans at an average of 3-degree spacing. Some floats provide additional bio-geo parameters such as oxygen or chlorophyll. All data collected by Argo floats are publically available in near real-time via the Global Data Assembly Centers (GDACs) in Brest (France) and Monterey (California) after an automated quality control (QC), and in scientifically quality controlled form, delayed mode data, via the GDACs within six months of collection.

The BGC-Argo Sprof snapshot is a subset of the global Argo data snapshot.  It is created to ease BGC-Argo data usage.  The content is the same if you are to download the global Argo data snapshot, and then select all the BGC-Argo Sprof files.  Please use the same DOI and citation as the global Argo data snapshot.

OCEAN:ICE - Trace gas measurements, basal glacial meltwater fractions, and water ages during RV POLARSTERN cruise PS124, Southern Weddell Sea

This datset presents trace gas measurements and derived variables such as basal glacial meltwater (GMW) fractions and water mass ages from the RV POLARSTERN expedition PS124 in the southern Weddell Sea in austral summer 2021. The trace gases comprise the lighter noble gases, i.e., total helium (He) and the excess above solubility equilibrium ΔHe, the 3He/4He ratio reported as δ3He, total neon (Ne) and the excess ΔNe, and the deviation from the equilibrium He/Ne ratio Δ(He/Ne), as well as the transient anthropogenic trace gases chlorofluorocarbon (CFC-12) and sulphur hexafluoride (SF6) concentrations. From these noble gases (He and Ne) we derived glacial meltwater fractions. From the transient tracers we computed SF6-concentration ages, CFC-12/SF6 ratio ages and TTD (Transit Time Distribution) mean ages.

In the period between the austral summers of 1982/83 to 1997/98, iceberg observations were recorded by most research vessels cruising Antarctic waters, under an international programme for systematic collection of Antarctic iceberg data initiated by The Norwegian Polar Institute (NPI) in 1981 with the endorsement of the Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR). The resulting database contains records of 320 493 iceberg positions from 26 601 individual observations. Of these, 259 479 icebergs have been classified by size into five different length categories: 10-50, 50-200, 200-500, 500-1000 and >1000 m. The database also includes 8061 additional iceberg observations collected by the Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions ships from 1984 (AAD), operating in the 50-150Â° E longitude sector. Some of these have been classified by slightly different size categories.

SO-CHIC - CTD Observations from Cruise 2022 - Agulhas II

This dataset contains the CTD casts conducted during the SO-CHIC (Southern Ocean Carbon and Heat Impact on Climate) cruise (December 2021/January 2022, S.A. AgulhasII). The cruise report is available at https://zenodo.org/record/6948850 for details. To contribute to reducing uncertainties in climate change predictions, the overall objective of the SO-CHIC project is to understand and quantify variability of heat and carbon budgets in the Southern Ocean through an investigation of the key processes controlling exchanges between the atmosphere, ocean and sea ice using a combination of observational and modelling approaches. The Southern Ocean regulates the global climate by controlling heat and carbon exchanges between the atmosphere and the ocean. Rates of climate change on decadal time scales ultimately depend on oceanic processes taking place in the Southern Ocean, yet too little is known about the underlying processes. Limitations come both from the lack of observations in this extreme environment and its inherent sensitivity to intermittent small-scale processes that are not captured in current Earth system models.
