Citation information for individual datasets is often provided in the metadata. However, not all datasets have this information embedded in the discovery metadata. On a general basis a citation of a dataset include the same components as any other citation:
author,
title,
year of publication,
publisher (for data this is often the archive where it is housed),
edition or version,
access information (a URL or persistent identifier, e.g. DOI if provided)
The information required to properly cite a dataset is normally provided in the discovery metadata the datasets.
If you use data retrieved through this portal, please acknowledge the SAON Data Portal.
Brief user guide
Outline of the data portal search interface.
The Data Access Portal has information in 3 columns. An outline of the content in these columns is provided above. When first entering the search interface, all potential datasets are listed. Datasets are indicated in the map and results tabulation elements which are located in the middle column. The order of results can be modified using the "Sort by" option in the left column. On top of this column is normally relevant guidance information to user presented as collapsible elements.
If the user want to refine the search, this can be done by constraining the bounding box search. This is done in the map - the listing of datasets is automatically updated. Date constraints can be added in the left column. For these to take effect, the user has to push the button marked search. In the left column it is also possible to specific text elements to search for in the datasets. Again pushing the button marked "Search" is necessary for these to take action. Complex search patterns can be constructed using logical operators through the drop down menu above the text field. Text strings that are not quoted are treated as separate words and will match any of the words (i.e. assuming the OR operator). Phrases may be prefixed with '-' to indicate no occurence of the phrase in the results.
Other elements indicated in the left and right columns are facet searches, i.e. these are keywords that are found in the datasets and all datasets that contain these specific keywords in the appropriate metadata elements are listed together. Further refinement can be done using full text, date or bounding box constraints. Individuals, organisations and data centres involved in generating or curating the datasets are listed in the facets in the right column.
The cruise aimed to test technology and sensors in protected, calm waters of a Norwegian fjord, to identify an optimum solution and strategy for deployment during Nansen Legacy research cruises in the northern Barents Sea. The cruise was related to objectives of the Nansen Legacy Research Focus 1 Physical drivers and Research Activity C Technology and method development. These data are created from the CTD data published by NMDC for the whole cruise (https://doi.org/10.21335/NMDC-1107806332). The values have not be changed.
The cruise addressed objectives of the work package Physical drivers (Research Foci 1), focusing on ocean mixing and water transformation process studies in the region west and north of Svalbard, with particular focus on the warm Atlantic boundary current. These data are created from the CTD data published by NMDC for the whole cruise (https://doi.org/10.21335/NMDC-1416956110). The values have not be changed.

The cruise contributed to the work package Physical Drivers (Research Foci 1) with process studies to investigate the atmospheric, oceanographic, radiative and other physical controls on sea ice and stratification, with a general aim to identify and quantify the processes that control the heat budget north of Svalbard and in the Barents Sea. These data are created from the CTD data published by NMDC for the whole cruise (https://doi.org/10.21335/NMDC-940645003). The values have not be changed.

As a part of “the Nansen Legacy Project” (NL), a set of 6 moorings distributed in 2 arrays were deployed across the continental slope, north of Svalbard. The observations cover a 12 to 14-month period from September 2018 to September or November 2019. A western array (moorings W1 to W3) was approximately along 18E30, covering from approximately 400 m to 1200 m isobaths. An eastern array (moorings E1 to E3) was approximately along 24E, covering from approximately 300 m to 1200 m isobaths.
One netCDF file per mooring is provided:
NL_E1.nc
NL_E2.nc
NL_E3.nc
NL_W1.nc
NL_W2.nc
NL_W3.nc
All time series are averaged into a common, uniform 1-hour resolution time stamp. Details on the data processing, mooring drawings and a detailed list of instrumentation are provided in the attached report (Koenig et al., 2022, https://doi.org/10.21335/NMDC-1075977612). Each file has a brief summary and comments related to the corresponding mooring.
Two sets of hourly-averaged time series of temperature, salinity and horizontal currents are provided. One set is 10-m vertically gridded (interpolated) after mooring motion correction. The second set as time series at time-variable measurement level because of mooring motion. See the variable names for details.
The Nansen Legacy was supported by the Research Council of Norway (project number 276730).
