RAPID: Meta-genomic and Transcriptomic Investigation of Complex Organic Matter Degradation in Antarctic Benthic Sediments |
Shelf sediment samples were collected around the Antarctic Peninsular with the mega corer in 2020 (Nov. to Dec.). The sample locations and water depths are recorded in this dataset. These samples were used to collect data on organic matter (total organic carbon, total nitrogen, delta 13C (organic), delta 15N, and C to N ratios). Nutrient data (nitrate, nitrite, sulfate, and ammonia) and grain size analysis were collected on a subsample set (10). | [] | [] | false | false |

Timing and Spatial Distribution of Antarctic Ice Sheet Growth and Sea-ice Formation across the Eocene-Oligocene Transition |
This dataset contains measurements of terrigenous particle-size distributions on Eocene-Oligocene sediment from Ocean Drilling Program Site 696 drilled in 650 m water depth on the South Orkney Microcontinent. Carbonate and organic matter were removed through addition of 10mL aliquots of 30% H2O2, 2mL aliquots of 10% HCl to ~50-100mL suspension on a hot plate. Diatoms were generally either absent or present in trace amounts in the Eocene-Oligocene interval and were not removed. Dispersion was through heating with sodium pyrophosphate. Samples were measured on a Malvern Mastersizer 2000 with a Hydro 2000MU (A) accessory, using a Refractive Index of 1.6 (Illite) and an absorption coefficient of 0.9. Results are in (vol. %) per size class, with diameter range equivalent to the diameter of spheres with the same volume as measured particles. | ["POINT(-42.933 -61.849)"] | ["POINT(-42.933 -61.849)"] | false | false |

Collaborative Research: Topographic controls on Antarctic Ice Sheet grounding line retreat - integrating models and observations Evidence for Paleo Ice Stream Collapse in the Western Ross Sea since the Last Glacial Maximum. |
Bathymetry from multibeam echo sounding data in Pennell Trough, Ross Sea, Antarctica was collected onboard the RVIB Nathaniel B. Palmer (NBP) 15-02 cruise using a Kongsberg EM122 operating in dual swath mode at 12 kHz frequency with a 1°×1° beam width, swath angular coverage set to 62°×62°, and 30-60% overlap between survey lines. All raw, ping-edited geophysical data collected on NBP15-02 can be accessed using the Marine Geoscience Data System (Cruise DOI: 10.7284/901477). The bathymetry dataset here is gridded at 20-m resolution with a water depth-dependent vertical resolution on the order of decimeters. Two shapefiles are provided for ice-marginal landforms and meltwater landforms observable in the bathymetry data. The purpose of collecting the bathymetry data on cruise NBP15-02 was to better understand the glacial history of the Ross Sea, and the dataset, inclusive of bathymetry data and shapefiles of glacial landforms, from Pennell Trough are used to understand impacts on subglacial channel morphology and organization during the deglaciation of the region following the Last Glacial Maximum. The published dataset was used and analyzed in the article "Topographic controls on channelized meltwater in the subglacial environment" by Simkins, L.M., Greenwood, S.L., Munevar Garcia, S., Eareckson, E.A., Anderson, J.B., and Prothro, L.O, which was published in Geophysical Research Letters in 2021 (DOI: 10.1029/2021GL094678). | ["POLYGON((174 -75,174.4 -75,174.8 -75,175.2 -75,175.6 -75,176 -75,176.4 -75,176.8 -75,177.2 -75,177.6 -75,178 -75,178 -75.2,178 -75.4,178 -75.6,178 -75.8,178 -76,178 -76.2,178 -76.4,178 -76.6,178 -76.8,178 -77,177.6 -77,177.2 -77,176.8 -77,176.4 -77,176 -77,175.6 -77,175.2 -77,174.8 -77,174.4 -77,174 -77,174 -76.8,174 -76.6,174 -76.4,174 -76.2,174 -76,174 -75.8,174 -75.6,174 -75.4,174 -75.2,174 -75))"] | ["POINT(176 -76)"] | false | false |

Diatom data from eastern side of Antarctic Peninsula: This file includes quantitative diatom data for surface samples collected on numerous cruises to the eastern side of the Antarctic Peninsula, including NBP0003, NBP0107, LMG0502, NBP0603, and NBP1203. Samples were collected using a variety of tools including Smith-McIntyre Grab, Kasten Core and Jumbo Kasten Core. These data were generated by Amy Leventer (aleventer@colgate.edu) and undergraduate students at Colgate University. All questions regarding the specifics of these data should be directed to Amy Leventer. Quantitative diatom slides were prepared according to the settling technique of Scherer (1995). Cover slips were adhered to the slides using Norland Optical Adhesive #61. Slides were observed under Olympus CX31, BX50 and BX60, and Zeiss Primo Star light microscopes, using a 100X oil immersion objective for a total magnification of 1000X. A minimum of 400 valves or 10 transects was counted for each slide, depending on the absolute diatom abundance. Valves were only counted if >50% complete. Diatoms were identified to species level when possible (Crosta et al., 2005; Armand et al., 2005; Cefarelli et al., 2010). Armand, L.K., X. Crosta, O. Romero, J. J.

Ross Sea unconformities digital grids in depth and two-way time

Subsidence, Tilting, Sedimentation, and Oligocene-middle Miocene paleo-depth of Ross Sea |
This data set includes digital 1 km grids of sub-bottom stratigraphy of most of Ross Sea. In addition to acoustic basement (same as top syn-rift sedimentary rocks in Central Trough and probably other basins), these grids include Oligocene and Miocene horizons that are unconformities in most areas. A sea floor grid is also included. Except for the sea floor grid, the grids are trimmed to be relatively close to control of interpreted seismic stratigraphy. The grids are provided in two way travel time and in depth. Math can be performed on the corresponding time and depth grids to recreate the 3D interval velocity model that was used. The velocity of the water used was 1450 m/s. More detailed descriptions of the work are found in the Final NSF report for PLR1341585 by C. Sorlien, B. Luyendyk, and D. Wilson. The grids are continuous so are merged with the sea floor where there is outcrop, or with basement if there is onlap, or with a young unconformity where there is sub-bottom truncation. The filenames include the name of the horizon (unconformity) and whether they are in time or depth. \"etc.\" means there are two or more horizons that have been merged. Most of the horizons are named and defined in the ANTOSTRAT (1995) atlas. The starting points for many of these horizons are ANTOSTRAT [1995] near DSDP sites 273, 272, and 270. In other areas we deviate from the interpretation of ANTOSTRAT [1995]. late Oligocene through middle Miocene horizons, interpreted very close to the ANTOSTRAT [1995] at DSDP Site 273 in Central Trough, are much deeper in our interpretation within Terror Rift. These horizon grids usually include the sea floor where there is outcrop or acoustic basement (top syn-rift in some basins) where there is onlap.
