| Summary: | 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. To address this issue a single dataset has been created from publicly available, ... : This dataset is an amalgamation of roughly 1,400 other FAIR datasets. Every datum contained within this dataset is allowed to be redistributed, and every datum is referenced with the appropriate citation. The purpose of combining this many datasets was to provide a single data source within which the interested researcher could investigate a range of socio-ecological processes within Arctic fjords. The focus on the collection of the data was from in situ sources, rather than remotely sensed or model data. Though to provide necessary context across sites for seawater temperature and sea-ice cover, analysed (not raw) data from three remotely sensed products are included.The explanations for the columns are:* date_accessed: When the data were accessed* URL: The web address where one may download the data* citation: The correct citation for the use of the data* type: Whether the data are collected 'in situ' or from one of three remotely sensed sources* site: generally one of seven primary study sites in the ... |
