Abundance, migrant biomass and carbon flux data of micronekton (fishes and cr...

The values of carbon flux were determined in juveniles/adults of 3 species of migratory mesopelagic fishes, 2 species of decapods and 2 species of large euphausiids sampled...

Harmonized in-situ observations of surface energy fluxes and environmental dr...

Despite the importance of surface energy budgets (SEBs) for land-climate interactions in the Arctic, uncertainties in their prediction persist. In situ observational data of SEB...

Compilation of stomach content data for mesopelagic fish and predator species...

Stomach contents analysis is a standard dietary assessment method that potentially enables quantifying diet components with high taxonomic resolution. We compiled diet...

Compilation of trophic positions of marine biota from the central and Northea...

Fractional trophic levels (i.e., trophic positions) describe the position of organisms within food webs and help define their functional roles in ecosystems (Odum & Heald,...

Compilation of stable nitrogen and carbon isotope ratios of marine biota from...

Bulk stable isotope ratios, primarily of carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N), are increasingly used to examine predator-prey interactions and food web structure. We compiled δ13C...

Compilation of major and trace element concentrations in mesopelagic and othe...

Organisms accumulate major and trace elements (including metals) directly from the external environment and/or indirectly through diet. As such, their elemental composition can...

Compilation of fatty acid composition of marine biota from the central and No...

Fatty acid (FA) composition has increasingly been used to estimate the dietary preference of marine organisms. Specific fatty acids and fatty acid ratios serve as trophic...

Compilation of diet proportions of mesopelagic fish from the central and Nort...

Quantitative data on diet composition is key to understand prey–predator interactions and to parameterize ecosystem models. We compiled estimates of diet proportions from 26...

Compilation of energy density of marine biota from the Northeast Atlantic and...

Information on the energy density of prey is critical for estimating food requirements and consumption by predators and modelling energy flux through food webs (Van de Putte et...

Monthly δ18О, δ2Н and dexc values in winter precipitation and air temperature...

Oxygen isotope measurements of most of the ice wedges studied were carried out using a G-50 device in the isotope geology laboratory at the Institute of Geology, Tallinn,...
