Recent Data

  1. Sediment properties, bulk geochemistry, and biomarker characteristics of core ARA01B-03MUC form the Chukchi Sea shelf

    The dataset includes sedimentological, bulk geochemical, lipid biomarker, cutin acid, and lignin phenol data for core ARA01B-03MUC, as well as compiled published data for surface sediments and sediment cores from the Chukchi Sea shelf.

  2. Carbon Monoxide (CO) Concentration in the Planetary Boundary Layer at Jang Bogo Station in 2024

    This dataset includes information on the carbon monoxide (CO) concentration measured in the planetary boundary layer at Jang Bogo Station in 2024.

  3. Atmospheric dimethyl sulfide (DMS) mixing ratios at King Sejong Station, Antarctica, during the austral summers of 2018/19, 2019/20, and 2021/22

    It contains atmospheric DMS mixing ratios measured at King Sejong Station during the 2018/19, 2019/20, and 2021/22 austral summers using a custom-made thermal desorption system coupled with gas chromatography–pulsed flame photometric detection (GC–PFPD). This dataset was collected to investigate the emission characteristics of oceanic dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and its impact on aerosol-cloud interactions in Antarctica.

  1. Climate Measurement Around the King Sejong Station, Antarctica in 2025

    Meteorological observation has been carried out at the King Sejong Station in 2025. Observational elements are composed of wind, air temperature, relative humidity, station level atmospheric pressure, 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 phenomena and to monitor climate variability at Antarctic Peninsula

  2. Iceberg-driven constraints on colony–foraging connectivity result in severe decline in chick counts for the Coulman Island emperor penguin colony

    The datasets were compiled to investigate the potential effects of iceberg presence on emperor penguin breeding performance and colony–foraging connectivity at Coulman Island. They include annual chick count records representing breeding productivity and remotely sensed iceberg elevation measurements characterizing iceberg morphology and freeboard. Together, these datasets enable the assessment of temporal changes in reproductive output in relation to physical environmental conditions and potential movement constraints imposed by large icebergs in the colony's surrounding habitat.

  3. New Catalogue of Thwaites Glacier Subglacial Lakes and Their Activity Revealed by CryoSat-2 Altimetry

    This dataset presents a new catalogue of active subglacial lakes beneath Thwaites Glacier, West Antarctica, identified using CryoSat-2 satellite radar altimetry. It details the boundaries, areas, and elevation changes of each lake, complete with 95% confidence intervals. The dataset also contains estimates of ice speed changes in the TG's grounding zone. For citation purposes, refer to the article by B-H Kim, C-K Lee*, K-W Seo, W S Lee, and J-W Park, 'New Catalogue of Thwaites Glacier Subglacial Lakes and Their Activity Revealed by CryoSat-2 Altimetry,' currently under revision for the Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface.
