Baseline measurements of bottom water, sediment and nutrients for the benthic environments of Saguenay fjord, Quebec, Canada
摘要
Fjords are distinctive geomorphological features that hold global significance for carbon burial and biogeochemical cycling, yet comprehensive datasets describing benthic environmental conditions are scarce. Here we provide a comprehensive georeferenced database of measured values of bottom-water (depth, fluorescence, dissolved oxygen, pH, salinity, temperature, turbidity), sediment (organic matter content, sediment particle-size descriptors [D₅₀, sorting, skewness, kurtosis]) and dissolved nutrient concentrations (
