This data summarizes site information, sediment textural properties, and bulk geochemical parameters from the same sampling campaigns, including mean grain size, total organic carbon (TOC) content, and carbon isotopic compositions (δ¹³C and F¹⁴C) of both TOC and SPE-DOC in bottom water (BW) and porewater (PW) samples. These data establish the baseline for evaluating the sources, reactivity, and age of organic carbon in sediments and porewaters of the German Bight. Together with the molecular results in doi:10.1594/PANGAEA.989754, they constrain the coupling between sedimentary organic carbon pools and dissolved organic matter dynamics in this shallow-marine environment.
This dataset presents detailed information on the sampling sites, dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentrations, and molecular characteristics of solid-phase extracted DOC (SPE-DOC) from bottom water (BW) and porewater (PW) samples collected in the German Bight, North Sea, during RV Heincke cruises HE582 and HE595. The data include average elemental compositions (C, H, O, N, S, P) and relative abundances of major compound classes and structural groups derived from FT-ICR-MS analysis. These molecular-level results provide insights into compositional differences between BW and PW DOM and reveal the selective preservation and transformation processes governing organic matter across the sediment–water interface.
The data set contains the results for the porewater composition of samples, collected from different (up to 11) depths (down to 4.5 mbsf) at two sites in front of the Hütelmoor, southern Baltic Sea. Porewater was under impact by submarine groundwater discharge and collected during 6 field campaigns in years 2020 and 2021 using permanent multi-port samplers. Stable isotope signatures (H, C, O, S), major, and trace element data are presented to characterize the mixture between the endmembers freshwater and the brackish surface water component, superimposed by benthic diagenesis.
The reactivity and isotope fractionation of Ni is strongly influenced by biological and redox-related processes in the ocean, giving the isotope system (expressed as δ60 Ni) some potential for studying past ocean environments. This requires, however, a profound understanding of its modern elemental and isotopic oceanic mass balance. In order to better understand mechanisms determining fluxes of Ni and its isotopes from the sediment-porewater system in reducing ocean settings, we present trace metal concentrations and Ni isotope data from sediments, porewaters and the water column of the shallow-water Kiel Bight, in the southwestern Baltic Sea. The samples were collected during RV Alkor cruise AL543. Trace metal concentrations in porewater, bottom water and BTP bottom water samples were measured on a Thermo Scientific Element XR and Nickel isotope compositions were measured using a Thermo Scientific Neptune Plus MC-ICP-MS. Digestion solutions of sediments and suspended particulate matter were measured by ICP-OES.

Solid-phase samples were collected onboard (RV Heincke expedition HE443) using cut-off syringes. The MUC was sliced and sampled. For sampling the GC, small windows were drilled into the liner through which the syringes were introduced. All samples were stored anoxically and frozen at -20°C until processing. The processing involved freeze-drying and grinding before splitting the samples for the different kinds of analyses.
Pore water was collected onboard (RV Heincke expedition HE443) by use of rhizons that were inserted into the cores through drilled holes in the core liners. Samples were preserved and analyses were performed onshore (at AWI) shortly after the expedition.
