AndreaBozzo/ceres-open-data-index huggingface dataset:
A data collation for climate-cooling gas dimethylsulphide in Antarctic snow, sea ice and underlying seawater

The database is comprised of folders of measurements of dimethylsulfide (DMS) and dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) in ice, snow, slush, water and brine. Data were collated and localised from a variety of studies from 1995-2018. Data come from peer-reviewed publications, field-reports, data repositories and direct contributions by field-research teams. This data compilation was carried out under the auspices of the Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research - ASPeCt program and the Scientific Committee on Ocean Research (SCOR) working group on Biogeochemical Exchange Processes at the Sea-Ice Interfaces (WG-140). 
Each excel file represents one ice core, snow sample or water sample as a vertical profile with section depth ranges. The information of interest includes the upper limits and mean concentrations of DMS, particulate DMSP (DMSPp), dissolved DMSP (DMSPd) and total DMSP (DMSPt: DMSPd + DMSPp) measured in nanomoles per litre (nmol l-1), for the associated depths. Ancillary data such as nutrients, temperature and chlorophyl a concentrations are also included where possible, as well as descriptive data for the sampling sites, such as date, coordinates, type of ice, snow and ice thickness, core diameter, etc. Some of these studies are time series and some contain replicate cores at each station. To differentiate samples taken on the same date, voyage or location, the files are named accordingly:
Date_CRUISE_sampletype_sampleID_variable.xlsx
Example: 19971017_ASAC2100_ice_002_DMSP.xlsx
Notes:
•   Files with unknown exact dates are named like so: 19971000
•   Not all filenames contain sample IDs. Sample IDs will be in the form of a three-digit number, or in the case of files from ISPOL_snow, ‘Sxx’ or ‘Ixx’, which correspond to snow samples over slush or over solid ice respectively. Sample ID for _JCR92- files are the words ‘Gertie’, ‘Herbie’ or ‘Isolde’ which correspond to station names from Turner et al. (1995).
•   Files named with JARE48_ice have an extra column for combined measurements of DMS and DMSP, which begins in cell BG22.
•   Data in this database was either made available by authors or extracted directly from figures using GRABIT. 
•   Data from files named with XVI_ice (Gambaro et al. 2004) were extracted using GRABIT, under the assumption that the figure 2 depth profiles related to ice cores and not under-ice water.

Aurora Australis Voyage 4 2012/13 Track and Underway Data

On every voyage of the Aurora Australis, approximately 50 onboard sensors collect data on average every 10 seconds.  These data are known as the underway datasets.  The type of data collected include water and air temperature, wind speeds, ship speed and location, humidity, fluorescence, salinity and so on.  For the full list of available data types, see the website.
These data are broadcast "live" (every 30 minutes) back to Australia and are available via the Australian Oceanographic Data Centre's portal (see the provided link).  Once the ship returns to port, the data are then transferred to Australian Antarctic Division servers where they are then made available via the Marine Science Data Search system (see the provided URL).
This dataset contains the underway data collected during Voyage 4 of the Aurora Australis Voyage in the 2012/13 season.
Purpose of voyage: Macquarie Island Station resupply

Response of antarctic marine diatoms to environment modification

Environmental manipulation and competition experiments on cultured and natural diatoms will identify the response of key taxa to environment modification. Understanding the environmental factors governing diatom distribution and natural variability will provide a basis to interpret palaeo-environment records, and allow predictions how this temperature-sensitive ecosystem will respond to future change.
Environmental manipulation and competition experiments using diatoms will identify the response of key taxa to environment modification.  Understanding the environmental factors governing their distribution and natural variability will provide a basis to interpret palaeo-environment records, and allow predictions how this temperature-sensitive ecosystem will respond to future change.
Diatoms for the experiments were collected in 2002 (Aurora Australia, Voyage 1) and 2003 (Aurora Australis, Voyage 1). On each occasion water from the ship's online seawater tap was filtered through a 20 micrometre plankton net for up to one hour into a sample jar. A portion of the sample was preserved in lugol's iodine for later phytoplankton analysis, and the rest of the sample maintained alive in the dark in seawater at a constant low temperature. The live sample is maintained at the AAD for culturing and environment manipulation and competition experiments.
Project 2364
Twelve water samples were collected from 23/10/03 to 27/10/03, in open seawater between 60 degrees 45' S and 50 degrees 02' S. At each site, the  following data were recorded from the ship's data logger: latitude, longitude,  UTC time, local time, water depth, salinity, water temperature, fluorescence,  UVB, and conductivity.

Whale log - observations from ANARE voyages

Ship-based observations of whales sightings from the original 'ANARE Whale Log' books have been recovered into a single repository of sightings. ANARE (Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions) is the historic acronym for these voyages.
Currently there are data from 4 voyages, from the 1990's.
Further data will be entered from existing Whale log datasheets on an ongoing basis.
Observing platforms currently only include the ship, Aurora Australis.
The quality and quantity of abiotic data associated with observations such as air temperature, sea ice cover etc vary immensely from voyage to voyage. Where possible these data have been entered.
This dataset contains no information on estimates of survey effort and cannot be used to derive useful presence/absence spatial coverages of species during this period. It is purely sighting data only.
Species distribution data are made available to SCAR-MarBIN (http://www.scarmarbin.be), OBIS and GBIF via the DiGIR protocol and Darwin Core schema.

Adelie penguin occupancy survey of Chick and Henry Islands, 2012

An occupancy survey in 26 January 2012 found a total of 2 islands along the coast between 120o30’E - 121o02’E had populations of breeding Adelie penguins. The survey was conducted from a fixed wing aircraft and oblique aerial photographs were taken of each occupied site. The aerial photographs were geo-referenced to the coastline shapefile from the Landsat Image Mosaic of Antarctica (LIMA, tile E159) and the boundaries of penguin colonies were digitised from the geo-referenced photos. Details for each island are:
Chick:  Photographs taken on 26 January 2012 and geo-referenced to LIMA tile E159
Henry 1:  Photographs taken on 26 January 2012 and geo-referenced to LIMA tile E159

Historical Adelie penguin breeding population estimates in the Australian Antarctic Territory

Ecologists are increasingly turning to historical abundance data to understand past changes in animal abundance and more broadly the ecosystems in which animals occur. However, developing reliable ecological or management interpretations from temporal abundance data can be difficult because most population counts are subject to measurement or estimation error.
There is now widespread recognition that counts of animal populations are often subject to detection bias. This recognition has led to the development of a general framework for abundance estimation that explicitly accounts for detection bias and its uncertainty, new methods for estimating detection bias, and calls for ecologists to estimate and account for bias and uncertainty when estimating animal abundance. While these methodological developments are now being increasingly accepted and used, there is a wealth of historical population count data in the literature that were collected before these developments. These historical abundance data may, in their original published form, have inherent unrecognised and therefore unaccounted biases and uncertainties that could confound reliable interpretation. Developing approaches to improve interpretation of historical data may therefore allow a more reliable assessment of extremely valuable long-term abundance data.
This dataset contains details of over 200 historical estimates of Adelie penguin breeding populations across the Australian Antarctic Territory (AAT) that have been published in the scientific literature. The details include attributes of the population count (date and year of count, count value, count object, count precision) and the published estimate of the breeding population derived from those attributes, expressed as the number of breeding pairs. In addition, the dataset contains revised population estimates that have been re-constructed using new estimation methods to account for detection bias as described in the associated publication. All population data used in this study were sourced from existing publications.

Tracking Near-Ship Icebergs from Ship Observations in Pack Ice, 1985

In 1985, the Nella Dan was trapped in sea ice for several weeks while undertaking a marine science voyage. During the time it was trapped, iceberg drift was measured in the region, tracking the movement of several icebergs relative to the ship. Iceberg movements included mt biscoe angle, bearing, and ship position so can get rotations with redundancy. Observations were done several times a day.
The physical logs are archived at the Australian Antarctic Division.
