The core partner data centres that are integrated in NorDataNet are listed in https://www.nordatanet.no/en/node/69. In addition to this NorDataNet harvests information on relevant datasets from a number of other data centres. The data centre responsible for the data presented is usually (but not always) listed in the discovery metadata. In essence NorDataNet is an aggregating service that combines information from a number of existing data centres.
Citation of data and service
If you use data retrieved through this portal, please acknowledge our funding source:
Research Council of Norway, project number 245967/F50, Norwegian Scientific Data Network.
Always remember to cite data when used!
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)
All partner repositories of NorDataNet support Digital Object Identifiers (DOI), but not all datasets are minted. Whether or not minted depends often on source of the data (e.g. operational data are often yet not minted). However, all data centres support persistent identifiers according to local systems. The information required to properly cite a dataset is normally provided in the discovery metadata the datasets.
Brief user guide
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 identified in the drop down menu with and phrases embedded in quotation marks. Prefixing a phrase with '-' negates the phrase (i.e. should not occur in the results). Searches are case insensitive.
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 combination of search fields (including facets) is based on a logical "AND" combination of the fields, i.e. all conditions are fulfilled for the results provided.
This dataset contains results of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) from seawater column samples collected in Kongsfjorden (between 78°50’ and 79°04’N and 11°20’ and 12°30’E) and West-Spitsbergen shelf (Svalbard) during three years in July/August 2015-2017 as part of the annual MOSJ (Monitoring of Svalbard and Jan Mayen) summer cruises using R/V Lance. Vertical profiles of salinity and temperature and water samples for DIC were collected using a ship-board CTD probe attached to a Rosette-sampler with 12-Niskin bottles (SBE911 plus, Sea Bird Electronics, Bellevue, WA, United States). The CTD was calibrated by Sea Bird Electronics annually before each sampling season. DIC was measured after the cruises at the Institute of Marine Research (IMR Tromsø, Norway) using gas extraction of acidified samples followed by coulometric titration and photometric detection using a Versatile Instrument for the Determination of Titration carbonate (VINDTA 3D, Marianda, Germany). Replicate measurements of Certified Reference Material (CRM, provided by A. G. Dickson, Scripps Institution of Oceanography, United States) ensured the precision and accuracy of the measurements, which was better ±2 μmol kg−1 for DIC. References: Dickson, A. G., Sabine, C.

The data set presents various metadata/general details on sea ice stations of five Nansen Legacy cruises (JC1-2, Q1, Q2, JC2-2 and JC3) conducted during 2018-2022 with the Norwegian ice-going research vessel Kronprins Haakon (KPH) to the northern Barents Sea, area north of Svalbard and further into the central Arctic, namely Nansen and Amundsen basins. During the on-ice work on these cruises, the information associated with organization of sea ice stations was logged. This dataset includes miscellaneous sea ice stations – specific information and documentation such as ice station reports and on-site notes, station maps and plans, photos, data on sea-ice drift during the on-ice work as well as any other materials found relevant for documenting the event. This information is potentially important as supporting for any further interpretation of results from various multidisciplinary activities conducted during the sea ice station work on these cruises. For more details on the dataset and its structure please see the attached dataset overview file NL_ice_stations_dataset_metadata.pdf
The data set presents physical properties of sea ice from sea ice cores recovered during Nansen Legacy cruises conducted during 2018-2022 to the northern Barents Sea, area north of Svalbard and further into the central Arctic, namely Nansen and Amundsen basins. The dataset includes relevant ice core data from six Nansen Legacy cruises conducted with the Norwegian ice-going research vessel Kronprins Haakon where a comprehensive program on sea ice physics was implemented. More details on the data structure and content are presented in the metadata file NL_sea_ice_cores_physics_dataset_metadata.pdf
