These data have been collated from peer-reviewed publications, reports, and unpublished measurements from researchers and research teams from across the international scientific community working in sea-ice biogeochemistry. The dataset includes concentrations of particulate organic carbon and nitrogen, dissolved organic carbon and nitrogen as well as ancillary measurements (e.g., ice temperature, salinity and other biogeochemical measurements) where available. Observations of sea-ice properties were also taken at the time of sampling, including ice thickness, snow thickness, and freeboard level, and can be used to contextualise the biogeochemical data.\nA total of 362 geo-referenced pack ice cores are included in the compilation; 139 cores from the Ross sector, 132 from the Atlantic sector, 47 from the Bellingshausen/Amundsen sector, 44 from the Pacific sector, with none from the Indian sector. The ice cores were primarily collected in austral spring (n = 171), with 110 from summer, 65 from autumn and 16 from winter. \nThe POC and DOC samples were measured from melted ice core sections following standard procedures (e.g., Miller et al., 2015). The POC samples were filtered onto pre-combusted glass or quartz fibre filters (typically pre-combusted GF/F with an operational pore size of 0.2 \u00b5m; Hulatt and Thomas 2010) before processing (acid fuming) and combustion in an elemental analyzer. For DOC, high-temperature catalytic oxidative analysis was typically performed on the filtrate.\nSea-ice thickness was estimated from ice core lengths, and snow depth measurements accompanied the majority (71%) of the POC and DOC measurements. Temperature and salinity profiles are available for a number of the ice cores (n = 81 and n = 313, respectively) within this dataset along with particulate and dissolved organic nitrogen (PON, n = 248 and DON, n = 104) and chlorophyll a (Chl a; n = 253) concentrations.\nThe data are provided in a spreadsheet in .csv format. Dalman-et-al-2025_Antarctic_pack_ice_carbon_final.csv. The spreadsheet contains all available data and supporting metadata. Each column heading is intended to be as informative as possible, and is given and described below. \nThese data were funded by the following bodies/projects:\nAustralian Antarctic Science project 4635.\nThis data compilation and analysis were carried out as part of the Scientific Community on Oceanic Research (SCOR) working group on Biogeochemical Exchange Processes at Sea-Ice Interfaces (BEPSII; WG-140). \nThis data compilation is the focus of Dalman et al., 2025, Geophysical Research Letters. This paper and the associated supplemental material provide more information about the data provided here and presents a detailed analysis of the results and scientific findings, especially in terms of utilizing it as a biomass accumulation method to estimating net community production within the sea ice.
