The marine sediment core ARA03B-41GC (41GC) was retrieved from the Makarov (Podvodnikov) Basin in the western Arctic Ocean for paleoenvironmental reconstruction during the Quaternary. Physical and geochemical properties, granulometry, and stratigraphy of core 41GC were initially investigated and reported in a study published in Quaternary Geochronology (Park et al., 2020). Further investigation on mineralogical and paleomagnetic measurements of core 41GC was conducted to reconstruct cryospheric and oceanographic evolution in the Arctic Makarov Basin with a revised chronostratigraphy. The new research, titled "Cryospheric and oceanographic evolution in the Arctic Makarov Basin since the early Pleistocene revealed by bulk mineral assemblages", has been accepted by the scientific journal 'Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology', 23rd April 2024. The dataset file, named "ARA03B 41GC data to PP.xlsx," contains information on Mn/Fe ratios (determined through X-ray fluorescence), inclination, sand fraction (>63 micron) contents, bulk mineral assemblage and their logratio, and clay mineral content (specifically smectite). For inquiries or further information regarding the dataset, interested parties can contact the researchers via 'kpark@kopri.re.kr' or 'sinam@kopri.re.kr'. References- Park, Kwangkyu, et al.

The tidal observation equipment at the King Sejong Station in Antarctica was installed by the Korea Hydrographic and Oceanographic Agency in December 2019. The equipment measures tidal waves at 1-minute intervals by measuring changes in water pressure according to sea level height in harsh Antarctic environments such as sea ice.

Two dimensional OH airglow intensity and temperature around 87km altitude at King Sejong Station, Antarctica. Studies of the atmospheric wave activities and mesopause temperature tendency in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT) over the southern high latitude.
Meteorological observation was carried out at the King Sejong Station in 2015. Observational elements are composed of wind, air temperature, relative humidity, station level atmospheric pressure, horizontal global solar radiation, longwave radiation, UV radiation, and precipitation. Goals of this observation are 1) to understand meteorological phenomena and 2) to monitor climate change at Antarctic Peninsula. These data are recorded automatically then examined by meteorological expert at the station to be produced as a daily, monthly, and annual report. To understand weather phenomema and to monitor at Antarctic Peninsula
This data supplement the paper entitled 'Empirical projection of global sea level in 2050 driven by Antarctic and Greenland ice mass variations' by Lee et al. (2023).
