Abstract

Sediment geochemical and microbial activity data collected on R/V Oden along the East Siberian Arctic Shelf from 2014 (ESAS Water Column Methane project)

These data describe sediment geochemical and microbial activity from the Lappet Sea, East Siberian Arctic Shelf. 

All of the methods used to determine concentrations and calculate rates of activity are given in the following papers: Joye S.B. et al. 2010; Joye, S. B. et al. 2010 and Orcutt, B. N. et al. 2005.
