Discrete profile measurements of carbon dioxide, hydrographic and chemical data from expedition SAS, Arctic Ocean, 2021
Adam Ulfsbo, Marcus Sundbom, Toste Tanhua, Lennart Gerke, Anne-Marie Wefing, Núria Casacuberta
This dataset includes discrete measurements of dissolved inorganic carbon, total alkalinity, pH (total scale), temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, dissolved inorganic nutrients, transient tracers, artificial radionuclides, and other parameters measured during the Synoptic Arctic Survey (SAS) expedition to the central Arctic Ocean with the Swedish icebreaker Oden from late July to mid September 2021.
The goal of SAS is to generate a comprehensive dataset that allows for an improved characterization of the Arctic Ocean with respect to its (1) physical oceanography, (2) marine ecosystems and (3) carbon cycle. The complete SAS dataset will provide a unique baseline that will allow for tracking climate change and its impacts as they unfold in the Arctic region over the coming years, decades and centuries.

The expedition
The data were collected in summer 2021 from Swedish icebreaker Oden during the Synoptic Arctic Survey (SAS) 2021 expedition organized by the Swedish Polar Research Secretariat.
The SAS-Oden 2021 expedition is the Swedish contribution the international scientist-driven initiative ”Synoptic Arctic Survey” (SAS). SAS will collect primary ecosystem data in the Arctic Ocean in 2020 – 2022 from both ice-breaking and non-ice-breaking research vessels. The SAS-Oden 2021 (SO21) cruise (EXPOCODE 77DN20210725) ran from 2021-07-25 to 2021-09-20.
