Event lists in PANGAEA

Event lists (sometimes called station lists) depict all device operations (=events) of a given research campaign. These lists can be accessed and downloaded using the generic link “https://www.pangaea.de/expeditions/events/” and adding the name of a campaign, as it is stored in PANGAEA. I.e. for campaign “PS121” the link would be: https://www.pangaea.de/expeditions/events/PS121. Default format is HTML, a tab file of a list can be downloaded by including “?format=textfile” in the URL: https://www.pangaea.de/expeditions/events/PS121?format=textfile.

There are two cases how these event lists are generated, depending on their origin:

1. Events are provided during the submission process of a dataset and added to the PANGAEA database.
2. Events are systematically archived in PANGAEA for a oceanic and regional German research vessels (and polar flights?).  For further information on how these event lists are generated, please read the next paragraphs.

Event lists for German research vessels

Event lists are systematically archived in PANGAEA for expeditions of the German research vessels POLARSTERN, SONNE, MARIA S. MERIAN, METEOR, HEINCKE, ELISABETH MANN BORGESE and ALKOR. They can be accessed via https://www.pangaea.de/expeditions/.

Event lists can also be harvested (using…), for example by/on marine-data.de.
