Networks of automatic lidar-ceilometer systems
type: Dataset
abstract: The ceilometer CL51 employs a pulsed diode laser LIDAR technology, where short, powerful laser pulses are sent out in a vertical or near-vertical direction. The reflection of light (backscatter) caused by clouds, precipitation or other obscuration is analysed and used to determine the cloud base height, the cloud layer height and the amount of clouds (in octas) in different layers.

data quality: The cloud base height, the cloud layer height and the amount of clouds in different layers are computed by the Vaisala CL51 algorithm based on raw backscatter data (time resolution: 6 s and vertical resolution: 10 m). The sky condition algorithm is calculated every five minutes based on data collected during the last 30 minutes. The last 10 minutes are double-weighted to make the algorithm more responsive to variations in cloudiness. The algorithm uses cloud base height and timing information to find cloud base height close each other. These cloud base height are combined into clusters and a height value is calculated for each cluster. This height gives the base height of a cloud layer represented by the cluster. The algorithm reports layers by combining clusters whose heights are close to each other and then selecting clusters that cover the greatest amount of sky.

Seasonal physiological and carbon‑related measurements of suspension feeders (Mytilus edulis and Balanus crenatus) from laboratory experiments in the Belgian marine environment
type: Dataset
abstract: UNDER EMBARGO - This dataset contains seasonal physiological measurements from controlled laboratory experiments on two dominant suspension-feeding species expected to colonise floating offshore structures: the blue mussel (Mytilus edulis; AphiaID 140480) and the wrinkled barnacle (Balanus crenatus; AphiaID 106215). The measured parameters include clearance rates, respiration rates, faecal pellet production rates, and faecal pellet sinking velocities. Mussels were collected from an aquaculture longline at the Westdiep SeaFarm, while barnacles were manually retrieved from the intertidal beachhead at Raversijde (Oostende, Belgium). All experiments were conducted using natural seawater collected from offshore sites in the Belgian part of the North Sea. Measurements were repeated across multiple seasons to capture temporal variability in physiological performance. The dataset was produced within the SWiM and EcoMPV projects and is suitable for reuse in ecosystem and biogeochemical modelling, including simulations of phytoplankton dynamics associated with large-scale offshore marine photovoltaic (MPV) developments.

data quality: Physiological measurements were obtained from controlled laboratory incubations following standardised protocols. After an acclimation period, faecal pellets were collected using a vacuum-based siphoning system and subsequently used to determine sinking velocity in still-water columns by timing their descent over fixed distances. Pellet lengths were measured from microscope images analysed in ImageJ. Respiration rates were derived from changes in dissolved oxygen concentration, which were continuously monitored using calibrated Firesting optical oxygen sensors placed in stirred incubation chambers. Clearance rates were calculated from changes in particle concentration measured with a Coulter counter, and faecal pellet production was quantified from the dry mass and carbon content of pellets collected over known time intervals. All physiological rates were standardised to organism dry weight and carbon content, determined after drying soft tissues. Quality control procedures included calibration of sensors prior to measurements, the use of replicates and procedural controls, verification of calculation procedures, and the dataset underwent standard quality checks before harmonisation and archiving.

Bird density profiles derived from weather radar measurements
type: Dataset
abstract: Bird density profiles are derived from weather radar volume data in real time, by the vol2bird algorithm as described in Dokter et al. (2011, 2019). The vol2bird algorithm exploits the radar reflectivity characteristics of different scatterers in the atmosphere, in order to distinguish biological from non-biological radar echoes. Once biological scatterers are isolated in the volume files, the reflectivity of these scatterers is converted in an estimate of the bird density per vertical layer of 200m, using a mean cross section of 11 cm2. The vbird profiles are provided for the following radars, with the radar owner in parentheses: Jabbeke (RMI), Wideumont (RMI), Helchteren (VMM), Zaventem (Skeyes), Herwijnen (KNMI), Den Helder (KNMI), Neuheilenbach (DWD), Essen (DWD), Abbeville (Météo-France) and Avesnois (Météo-France).

data quality: Bird density profiles are generated for every individual radar volume scan, and hence inherit the time resolution from the originating radar scan cycle. All radars used in this data repository operate in a five minute scan cycle. The produced output file is a plain text file, and contains a concatenation of subsequent vertical profile outputs (vpts = vertical profile time series). It contains the following columns: - date: Date (UTC) - time: Time (UTC) - HGHT: Height bin (lower bound) in m above ground level. - u: Speed component west to east in m/s. - v: Speed component north to south in m/s. - w: Vertical speed (unreliable!) in m/s. - ff: Horizontal speed in m/s. - dd: Direction in degrees clockwise from north. - sd_vvp: VVP radial velocity standard deviation in m/s. - gap: Angular data gap detected in T/F. - dbz: Animal reflectivity factor in dBZ. - eta: Animal reflectivity in cm2/km3. - dens: Animal density in animals/km3. - DBZH: Total reflectivity factor (bio + meteo scattering) in dBZ. - n: Number of data points used for the ground speed estimates (quantities u, v, w, ff, dd). - n_all: Number of data points used for the radial velocity standard deviation estimate (quantity sd_vvp). - n_dbz: Number of data points used for reflectivity-based estimates (quantities dbz, eta, dens). - n_dbz_all: Number of data points used for the total reflectivity estimate (quantity DBZH). The bird density profiles are provided as is, without any manual or automatic quality control.
