The dataset contains the concentrations of methane, sulfate and microbial lipid biomarkers, and the carbon isotope composition of lipids in the sediment collected from the SWERUS-C3 expedition in 2014. The core sediment samples were from stations 13, 14 and 23 in the outer Laptev Sea. The field investigation reveals it is a methane seep area. ... : This work was supported by several funding agencies.
