Abstract:
The cruise Sternfahrt_8 was a continuation of the previous Sternfahrten (1-7). This time the aim was to assess not only the spatial variability but also the temporal variance of chemical, physical and greenhouse gases in the German Bight (North Sea). Therefore, three ships with different tracks repeated the same track with the same stations for four days (GPS-Positions see metadata). One Ship (Uthörn) covered the western part of our study area, the second ship (Littorina) covered the northern part (Büsum – Heligoland) and the third ship (Ludwig Prandtl) was supposed to take the middle part (Cuxhaven – Heligoland), but due to vandalism damage in the beginning of the cruise this ship was not able to participate in the cruise. Apart from continuously measurements six CTD stations were run each day delivering discrete water samples for DIC, TA, DOC, methane, nutrients and explosive metals. This dataset contains the results from the latter water samples. For more detailed information about the MOSEShx campaign and the cruise Sternfahrt_8 respectively see article cited in references.
