[{"name":"oden-ao-2016-expedition-1","title":"Data from expedition Arctic Ocean, 2016","summary":"The Arctic Ocean 2016 expedition was carried out during summer 2016 in the Arctic Ocean, mainly in the Amundsen Basin and in areas around the underwater mountain ranges Lomonosov Ridge and Alpha Ridge.\r\n\r\nWith the Swedish icebreaker Oden serving as the research platform, a range of scientific investigations were made. The main scientific goals included investigations of the geological origin of the Alpha Ridge and spreading of heavy metals in the ocean, atmosphere, and cryosphere. Data provided in the database here comprise weather stations, cloud data, micrometeorology, marine sediment cores and high-resolution bathymetry.\r\n\r\nThe expedition started and ended in Longyearbyen, Svalbard, and lasted from August 8 to September 20, 2016.","citations":"G\u00e5rdfeldt K, Lindgren \u00c5 (2017) SWEDARCTIC Arctic Ocean 2016: Expedition Report, Swedish Polar Research Secretariat, 117 pp\n\nO'Regan M, Coxall HK, Cronin TM, Gyllencreutz R, Jakobsson M, Kaboth S, L\u00f6wemark L, Wiers S, West G (2019) Stratigraphic Occurrences of Sub-Polar Planktic Foraminifera in Pleistocene Sediments on the Lomonosov Ridge, Arctic Ocean.

St-Laurent operating together. The Swedish research was focused on environmental chemistry, marine geology and atmospheric research. Also Danish and Norwegian researchers worked on board Oden with marine geology and ice management. The logistics of the expedition was supported by the Swedish Polar Secretariat. The aim of the Canadian research programme was to collect data in support of Canada\u2019s extended continental shelf submission to the Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf, prepared in accordance with the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS). The scientific program had a specific component of\u00a0 bringing early career scientists onboard Oden. These were supervised by the principal investigators, also with respect to their post cruise analyses.\r\n\r\n##### Participants\r\n\r\n###### Chief scientist onboard Oden\r\n* Katarina G\u00e5rdfeldt, Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg, Sweden\r\n\r\n###### Chief scientist onboard Louis S.
