    Description: We produced carbon and nitrogen isoscapes across the entire Southern Ocean (〉40°S) using surface particulate organic matter isotope data, collected over the past 50 years. We used Integrated Nested Laplace Approximation -based approaches to predict mean annual isoscapes and four seasonal isoscapes using a suite of environmental data as predictor variables.

    Description: Marine particulate organic carbon-13 stable isotope ratios (δ13C-POC) provide additional constraints and insights into the cycling of carbon from dissolved pools to marine ecosystems including anthropogenic contributions. For such purposes, a robust spatio-temporal coverage of δ13C-POC observations is essential. In this data product, we collected and merged two large data compilations (Close and Henderson, 2020; St John Glew et al., 2021) into our previous version (Verwega et al., 2021) to provide the largest available marine δ13C-POC data set. Additionally, we have incorporated more meta information including if the samples were acidified before measuring the isotope ratio. The data set consists of 6952 data points covering the global ocean from year 1966 to 2019. We provide the data in the following two formats for best application on specific research purposes: (1) A spreadsheet file including all collected individual data and meta-information; (2) Network Common Data Form (NetCDF) files that only include acidified samples (6633 total data points) interpolated onto a global ocean grid (1°x1° horizontal resolution, 33 vertical levels based on World Ocean Atlas 2009) for each month individually and all months combined, with each file covering the temporal range from year 1966 to 2019.

    Description: Polar marine ecosystems are particularly vulnerable to the effects of climate change. Warming temperatures, freshening seawater, and disruption to sea-ice formation potentially all have cascading effects on food webs. New approaches are needed to better understand spatiotemporal interactions among biogeochemical processes at the base of Southern Ocean food webs. In marine systems, isoscapes (models of the spatial variation in the stable isotopic composition) of carbon and nitrogen have proven useful in identifying spatial variation in a range of biogeochemical processes, such as nutrient utilization by phytoplankton. Isoscapes provide a baseline for interpreting stable isotope compositions of higher trophic level animals in movement, migration, and diet research. Here, we produce carbon and nitrogen isoscapes across the entire Southern Ocean (〉40°S) using surface particulate organic matter isotope data, collected over the past 50 years. We use Integrated Nested Laplace Approximation-based approaches to predict mean annual isoscapes and four seasonal isoscapes using a suite of environmental data as predictor variables. Clear spatial gradients in δ13C and δ15N values were predicted across the Southern Ocean, consistent with previous statistical and mechanistic views of isotopic variability in this region. We identify strong seasonal variability in both carbon and nitrogen isoscapes, with key implications for the use of static or annual average isoscape baselines in animal studies attempting to document seasonal migratory or foraging behaviors.
