Citation

Australian Antarctic Data Centre (2022). Stable isotope data from marine sediment and invertebrates from Davis Station 2009/10. Occurrence dataset https://doi.org/10.15468/y1cloo accessed via GBIF.org on 2023-02-03.

Description

This metadata record contains an Excel file containing stable isotope analysis data of marine sediments and invertebrates collected at Davis Station from December 2009 to March 2010. Refer to Gillies et al. 2013 for sampling and analysis details. Gillies C.L., Stark J.S., Johnstone G.J., Smith S.D.A., 2013. Establishing a food web model for coastal Antarctic benthic communities: a case study from the Vestfold Hills, Marine Ecology Progress Series, Vol. 478: 27 – 41. Also refer to the Davis STP reports lodged under metadata record Davis_STP for methods and result details. Background of the Davis STP project Refer to the Davis STP reports lodged under metadata record Davis_STP. Quality: The original datasheet was reformatted to fit OBIS/ GBIF/IPT Biodiversity.AQ standard. The new datasheet "DavisStationStableIsotopes.csv" provides the dataset ID, event ID, recordNumber, occurrenceID, eventDate, decimalLatitude, decimalLongitude, continent, occurrenceStatus, basisOfRecord. The taxonomical organisation is provided to the lowest taxonomical rank that could be determined, after matched in WoRMS (World Register of Marine Species).

Sampling Description

Quality Control

The original datasheet was reformatted to fit GBIF/ IPT Biodiversity.AQ standard. The new datasheet "DavisStationStableIsotopes.csv" provides the dataset ID, event ID, recordNumber, occurrenceID, eventDate, decimalLatitude, decimalLongitude, continent, occurrenceStatus, basisOfRecord. The taxonomical organisation is provided to the lowest taxonomical rank that could be determined, after matched in WoRMS (World Register of Marine Species).

Method steps

  1. Sediment POM samples were collected by divers throughout the sampling period at depths of 6 to 30 m by coring (5 cm diameter by 10 cm long) and utilising only the top 1.5 cm section of the core
