Abstract:
The main objective of this Sternfahrt-8, from 10th to 16th September 2021, was to assess the temporal variance of oceanographic real time data in the Elbe influence area of the German Bight (North Sea). Therefore, the participating Ships should repeat the same tracks for four days (see map). One ship (RV Uthörn) covered the western part between Cuxhaven and Heligoland, the second ship (RV Littorina) went to the northern part between Heligoland and Büsum and the third vessel (RV Ludwig Prandtl) should have covered the middle part of the study area, but due to vandalism damage it could not participate on the cruise. During the whole cruise chemical and physical data were recorded continuously along the tracks. Additionally, discrete water samples were taken on six stations along the way for further analysis in the laboratory. The latter data is not included in the present dataset, and can be accessed via https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.963455. For more information about the MOSES campaign and the "Sternfahrten" cruises see article cited in references.
