Predicted sedimentation rates data for the Baltic Sea derived from samples from 1992 - 2019

Spatial prediction of the sediment accumulation rate, provided as a .geotif 
file (as an average linear rate in cm yr-1 since 1986) for the Baltic Sea 
created using a machine learning approach. Predicted rates of sediment 
accumulation vary from 0.08-1.67 cm yr-1. Field measurements were acquired 
between 1992 and 2012 as compiled by EMODnet Geology. Predictor variables were 
derived from 2003 to 2018 from various sources including EMODnet Bathymetry, 
Copernicus and Cefas staff. Modelling subsequently occurred in 2019 by Cefas. 
Further detail on the data sources are provided in the associated manuscript.

Pacific oyster physiology data with different microalgal diets 2020-2022

72 adult Pacific oysters collected from Woolston bay in Southampton in October 
2021 and fed one of three microalgal diets: Isochrysis galbana, 
Nannochloropsis gaditana/oculata, or an equal mix of Isochrysis and 
Nannochloropsis. Data include total weight, shell weight, internal tissue 
weight, respiration rate, and expression levels of four shell-forming genes 
for all oysters. Stable isotope (SI) composition of the Isochrysis galbana and 
Nannochloropsis gaditana were measured, as was the SI of the stomach of 
oysters fed the mixed species diet.

Release and recapture data from cod tagged in the North Sea from 1961 to 2015

Release and recapture data relating to cod tagged and released in the North 
Sea (ICES Subarea 4). Between 1961 and 2015, a total of 22,573 cod were tagged 
and released using either conventional marker-ID tags and in the more recent 
years of the dataset, electronic data storage tags (DSTs), of which 6,703 tags 
were subsequently returned. For tagged fish that were recaptured as much 
information as possible was recorded, namely the recapture date and location, 
length, weight, sex and maturity. Otoliths (ear stones) were removed for age 
determination purposes and other studies. These data are used to provide 
information for studies relating to fish behaviour, growth and identification 
of stock units.

historic Young Fish Survey (YFS) protocols to ensure comparability of data 
across years. Sampling inshore locations for small and young fish, focusing on 
key commercial species such as juvenile sole and plaice, but also recording 
other fish, cephalopods, shellfish, and epibenthic bycatch taxa. Additional 
opportunistic marine oceanographic and environmental data collection using 
surface water samples and conductivity temperature and depth profiles from a 
SAIV sensor (CTD) and concerto RBR.

Physical and chemical properties of seawater for the North Sea, in each month of 1976

Series of 12 cruises carried out by Cefas in 1976 on board RV Corella and RV 
Clione, resampling a grid of fixed stations every month throughout 1976. Data 
provided: date; station number; time; position (latitude and longitude); 
depth; tide direction; wind speed and direction. Environmental variables 
measured include: temperature (surface and bottom), salinity, transparency 
(%), nutrient concentrations (nitrite, nitrate, phosphate, silicate); 
chlorophyll-a (total and nano); phaeophytin (total and nano). These data have 
been converted into digital format (excel files); however there is more data 
collected during the same survey (e.g. fish stomach content; fish larvae 
counts; phytoplankton counts) that has not been converted and is still in 
paper format (paper records are kept by Steve Milligan, Plankton Lab).

Seawater temperature records for the UK Shelf - 15 - RV Cefas Endeavour FerryBox Monitoring System

This dataset has been extracted as part of an exercise to assemble "all" Cefas 
Temperature Data and publish it in a Data paper. It is one of 17 Cefas data 
sources assembled. Ferryboxes are packages of instruments that are usually 
placed on board commercial ships such as ferries to monitor temperature, 
salinity and other water properties. This data series is from 2009-2013 from 
the cruises of the RV Cefas Endeavour. The RV Cefas Endeavour was commissioned 
in 2003 and fitted with a FerryBox system in 2009. Unlike most FerryBox 
systems (see `http://www.ferrybox.org`_, RV Cefas Endeavour runs a 
combination of regular (usually annual) monitoring cruises in UK Shelf waters 
(with a focus on ICES Mandated Surveys for fisheries assessments) and bespoke 
research cruises. This provides a widespread coverage with some repeat 
components in time and space.

Seawater temperature records for the UK Shelf - 10 - Citizen Science Diver Recorded Temperatures

This dataset has been extracted as part of an exercise to assemble "all" Cefas 
Temperature Data and publish it in a Data paper. It is one of 17 Cefas data 
sources assembled.

This data source differs from the others in this collection because it arises 
from an investigation into the potential for Citizen Science to contribute to 
assessments of the marine environment. The dataset is derived from a database 
containing over 7,000 records of temperature data collected from temperature 
compensated dive computers. The lowest temperature is recorded from the 
thermal sensor. The unprocessed data were then subjected to a quality control 
process that compared the temperature with the relevant sea surface 
temperature (obtained from OSTIA – Operational Sea Surface Temperature and Sea 
Ice Analysis – 
`http://ghrsst–pp.metoffice.com/pages/latest_analysis/ostia.html`_).

There was a linear correlation between the sea surface temperature and the 
recorded temperature at depth. Values exceeding a specified difference from 
the surface temperature (5°C) were excluded. This resulted in a quality 
assured dataset of just over 5,000 records (including freshwater and lake 
data). The subset of global dataset provided covers the UK shelf.

The 5°C threshold is derived from previous analyses of the performance of dive 
computers.

AquaSmart Aquaculture Suitability Layers for Penang, Malaysia

The AquaSmart project aim was to identify potential areas of aquaculture 
development around the island of Penang, Malaysia for 5 different species; 
ogonori seaweed (*Gracilaria lichenodes*), blood cockle (*Tegillarca 
granosa*), slipper oyster (*Crassostrea iredalei*), tropical oyster (
*Crassostrea belcheri*), and barramundi (*Lates calcarifer*). To achieve 
this aquaculture suitability layers were generated that represent the areas 
that have the best range of environmental conditions for these species when 
grown under aquaculture (farming) conditions. These spatial data layers were 
generated in August 2024, and refined in September 2024 following comments 
from the 2nd AquaSmart workshop in Malaysia.

This data comprises the spatial data habitat suitability layers for the 5 
species as GeoTiff raster data, along with a georeferenced layered pdf map 
which serves to enable non-specialist users to be able to understand the 
conflicts and potential area of aquaculture development in the region.

Predictor variables and sedimentation rate samples used to predict sedimentation rates within the Baltic Sea from 1992 - 2017

Input data used to predict sedimentation rate for the Baltic Sea. Observation 
data includes: Sedimentation rate data derived from isotope 137Cs tracers and 
pseudo-samples of zero sedimentation rate randomly placed in areas of rocky 
habitat. Sixteen predictor variables were considered for use in the 
sedimentation rate model. These were: Bathymetric Position Index (at three 
neighbourhood sizes); the Standard Deviation of bathymetry (at three 
neighbourhood sizes); Distance from Rivers (three layers representing 
different river catchment sizes); Substrate class (developed at a 1:1,000,000 
scale for the Baltic Sea, classified to Folk5 level); satellite derived 
estimate for Suspended Particulate Matter in the water column (a winter and 
summer layer); Orbital Velocity at the seabed (a winter and summer layer); and 
Current Speed (a winter and summer layer).

The main aim of the Western Channel sole and plaice survey is to show trends 
in the distribution, abundance and age composition of sole (*Solea solea*) 
and plaice (*Pleuronectes platessa*), and to provide some information on 
bycatch species in the Western English Channel (ICES Division 7e). At each 
station sampled, shot and haul, positional, depth and times information were 
recorded, and for all species of fish and shellfish length distribution data 
were taken. Otoliths were collected from sole and plaice to provide individual 
age at length information.

Up until 2020 the survey time-series (2003 onwards) was funded as part the
