ColaltedDatasets for Figures 2, 3, and 4 of: "Marine carbonate accumulation – A (re-)vision of present estimates and future declines"
This dataset contains collated freely available datasets used to generate Figures 2, 3, and 4 in the submitted manuscript "Marine carbonate accumulation – A (re-)vision of present estimates and future declines". The data is uploaded in this repository to make it easily available for researchers without the need to "hunt down" individual data sources again. All datasets are best viewed with Ocean Data View (https://odv.awi.de/).
Figure 2 shows the most recent modern-day distribution of surface water omega values for calcite and aragonite. Data source and original dataset availability:

Figure 3: The seafloor's calcium carbonate content was originally collated by Hayes et al. (2021). For visualization, the original dataset was cleaned and transferred into Ocean Data View (https://odv.awi.de/). The original data is available via the supplementary data of:

Figure 4: The figure collates four separate georeferenced shapefiles of biome distribution data of the United Nations Environment Programme World Conservation Monitoring Centre (UNEP WCMC: https://data.unep-wcmc.org/), as well as the satellite-derived abundance of particulate organic carbon (PIC = CaCO3) in the water column, based on the 2021 annual composite of the Aqua/MODIS Level-3 Binned PIC data provided by NASA Goddard Space Flight Center.
