CTD and ADCP obtained during the FARDWO-CCC1 Cruise, onboard the R/V Garcia del Cid. The aim of the cruise was to characterise the physical and biogeochemical characteristics of the dense water overflow in the Cap de Creus canyon as a part of the FARDWO project (Far-reaching impacts of dense water overflows in the North Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea, PID2020-114322RB-I00, funded by MICIU/AEI /10.13039/501100011033). Data includes two h [...]
This repository contains raw data from flow cytometry, diagnostic pigments, and particulate organic carbon and nitrogen analyses, collected during phytoplankton incubation experiments in the Southern Ocean in February 2022 (Indian section). One incubation was conducted in the Polar Frontal Zone and the other in a High-Nutrient, Low-Chlorophyll (HNLC) region. These experiments were carried out under various treatments, including the addition of Pa [...]
The database displays the field measurements recover during a one-week experiment in October 2021 on the Socoa's rocky platform, France. The general objective of the study was to evaluate the momentum balance over the rocky platform, in particular to quantifiy the combined effect of high seabed roughness and waves on the coupling between circulation, wave force and mean water level. The analysis is performed along a single cross-shore transect. T [...]
Extreme percentiles (1%, 5%, 95%, 99%) of bottom temperature and salinity, as well as (95%, 99%) of bottom currents, were modeled using SYMPHONIE on a numerical domain covering 65 × 60 km at a resolution of 80 m. The 10-m bathymetry used inside the Lacaze-Duthiers Canyon was collected during the CALADU_2021 cruise (https://doi.org/10.17600/18001575).Statistics of extreme values were derived from hourly fields simulated between November 1, 2012, a [...]
This dataset is composed of presence and absence points of cold-water corals (Scleractinaria Madrepora oculata and Desmophylum pertusum, syn. Lophelia pertusa) in the Lacaze-Duthiers Canyon. Coral colonies are categorised according to the CORALFISH classification.Raw dataset gathered from five cruises (MEDSEACAN_2009, CALADU_2019, CALADU_2021, ECALION_2023, PLAS-SCORE_2023) in the Lacaze-Duthiers Canyon. The objective was to map the distribution [...]
Extreme storms generate ocean waves, with heights that may exceed 20 m. Possible climate trends for these events are unknown as they only cover small ocean areas, often missed by nadir-looking satellite altimeters. Because storm waves radiate as swell across ocean basins, they are resolved by the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite mission. We find a very sharp decay of swell heights as a function of distance from the storm, which [...]
The dataset consists of raw pressure data and sea level data from 27 low-cost bottom pressure sensors (Mastodon probes) sampling at 2 Hz. The low-cost sensors were deployed at Blancs Sablons (Le Conquet, France) during more than 4 months, from 14 December 2023 to 25 April 2024.The coordinate files (coord_sensors.txt) contains the longitude and latitude of the 27 sensors.The RAW_PRESSURE_DATA directory contains 27 files in text format (csv). The p [...]
The census of the Italian marine malacofauna took shape in 1982 by a group of researchers: Daniele Bedulli, Bruno Dell'Angelo, Piero Piani and Gianni Spada with a publication in the Bollettino di Malacologia (Bedulli D., Dell'Angelo B., Piani P., Spada G. 1982. Project for the census of the Italian marine malacofauna. Bollettino Malacologico, 18, 85-94). Subsequently, Filippo Bassignani, Vincenzo Iacono and Bruno Sabelli collaborated on the proje [...]
This dataset contains all satellite altimeter wave heights above 9 m, from the following satellite missions: ERS-1, ERS-2, Topex-Poseidon (Topex only), Envisat, SARAL, Jason-1, Jason-2, Jason-3, Sentinel-3A, Sentinel-3B, Sentinel-6A, Cryosat-2, CFOSAT, SWOT. Storm event identification used the DetectHsStorm package developed by M. De Carlo and F. Ardhuin ( https://github.com/ardhuin/) . This data can be combined with modeled storm tracks (see F. [...]
We built a trait database of 385 phytoplankton taxa recorded in five Atlantic bays in France between 2009 and 2018. We focused on seven traits known or potentially expected to be determinant for bivalve molluscs nutrition, including morphological traits such as maximum cell size, shape and cover (i.e. cell wall structure), the ability to form colonies, presence of spicules, ecological (habitat) and physiological (harmfulness) traits. The database [...]
