Abundance of Prokaryotes in deep-sea sediments analyzed by CARD-FISH

We fixed 0.5 g aliquots of sediment with a 4% formaldehyde solution for 2-4 h, washed the fixed sediments three times with 1x phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), before storing...

Whale sightings during POLARSTERN cruise PS85 (ARK-XXVIII/2)

Data on whale distribution and abundance in the polar oceans is rather sparse, as implementing the standard surveying method, line-transect surveys, is challenging and costly....

Litter trends at three stations of the HAUSGARTEN observatory

The deep sea is considered a major sink for debris even in regions as secluded as the Arctic Ocean. Here, we assess the variability of litter over a latitudinal gradient at the...

Bacterial data from CTD stations during POLARSTERN cruise PS85 (ARK-XXVIII/2)

Here we present a comparative study of polar summer microbial communities in the ice-free (eastern) and ice-covered (western) hydrographic regimes at the LTER HAUSGARTEN in Fram...

Microplastic and environmental data from Arctic sea ice

Microplastics (MP) are recognized as a growing environmental hazard and have been identified as far as the remote Polar Regions, with particularly high concentrations of...
