This dataset comprises measurements from thermistor (SBE56) mounted on the Mooring Dirigibile Italia (MDI), which is managed by the Institute of Polar Sciences of the National Research Council (CNR). The mooring is placed in the Kongsfjorden, Svalbard Island, since September 2010 and the thermistor at the nominal depths of 92 and 97 m was operative from June 2017 to August 2020. This dataset is also part of the SIOS-Svalbard Integrated Arctic Earth Observing System, developed to observe the impacts of climate change, including the rapid loss of sea ice cover, the retreat of local glaciers, and the Atlantification of Arctic seas. Measured properties are: sea-water temperature.

This dataset comprises measurements from moored surface buoy installed in the Kongsfjorden in proximity of the Mooring Dirigibile Italia (MDI). The buoy is managed by the Institute of Polar Sciences of the National Research Council (CNR). The buoy was moored in September 2023 with the aim to expand the observation on the sea-surface layer and also on the athmosphere in the framework of the Italian PNRR project ITINERIS. The buoy is equipped with sea surface temperature sensor positioned at 1m below the sea-level and meteorological station mounted at 2 m above the sea-leve. Mesured properties are seawater temperature, wind speed and direction, air pressure, air temperature, solar radiation and atmospheric humidity.

This dataset comprises measurements from moored Acustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) installed on the Mooring Dirigibile Italia (MDI), which is managed by the Institute of Polar Sciences of the National Research Council (CNR). The mooring is active in the Kongsfjord, Svalbard Island, since 9 September 2010. This dataset is also part of the SIOS-Svalbard Integrated Arctic Earth Observing System, developed to observe the impacts of climate change, including the rapid loss of sea ice cover, the retreat of local glaciers, and the Atlantification of Arctic seas. Measured properties are: ocean currents along the water column from 95m depth until surface and sea water temperature. The acquisition of this time series data is still ongoing and will continue, bolstered by the inclusion of this infrastructure within the framework of the Italian PNRR project ITINERIS. This ensures sustained data collection and further enhances our understanding of the observed environmental changes.

The Aldo Pontremoli Mooring (MAP), operated by the Institute of Polar Sciences of the National Research Council (CNR), has been active in the Kongsfjord, located in the Svalbard archipelago, since September 11, 2020. It is situated near the mouth of Bayelva River mouth and is influenced by land terminating glaciers and the release of permafrost. Currently, the mooring line is equipped with various instruments positioned at depths ranging from 22 to 97 meters within the water column. These instruments collect a wide array of physical and biogeochemical Essential Ocean Variables, including seawater pressure, temperature, conductivity, salinity, currents, dissolved oxygen concentration, pH, particle fluxes and dissolved carbon dioxide concentration. This activity is part of the Svalbard Integrated Arctic Earth Observing System (SIOS), which aims to monitor the impacts of climate change, such as the rapid loss of sea ice cover, the retreat of local glaciers, and the Atlantification of Arctic seas. Time series acquisition is ongoing and will continue, supported by funding from JRA ENI-CNR. The project's goal is to analyse the environmental feeback related to the material released into the marine environment due to permafrost melting. Reactivated permafrost can have significant consequences for both climate and the environment by contributing to the release of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere and pollutants into aquatic ecosystems.
