Overview The following dataset presents the energy cycle characteristics for 5G/6G mobile systems supported by Renewable Energy Sources (RES) and/or Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RISs). In addition, within the dataset, the energy gain related to the engagement of RES within the Radio Access Network (RAN) has also been distinguished. Scenario The considered network scenario includes 8 three- (_results_gcas.csv) or one-cell (_results_scas.csv & _results_kras.csv) base stations (BSs) placed within the Poznan city (surroundings of the old market) and supported by Renewable Energy Sources — photovoltaic panels (PVs) and/or wind turbines (WTs). The aforementioned base stations can be treated as stationary towers or mobile access points (e.g., drones/UAVs). Those latter have been additionally equipped with RIS devices, which are able to reflect and manipulate a radio signal to influence occurrences such as interferences, coverage, or human exposure. However, the use of RISs has been taken into account only to evaluate the impact of the engagement of such devices on the energy side of the mobile system, omitting the changes in radio characteristics. The network traffic has been assumed to be fixed (64 mobile users (UEs) with 100 Mbps downlink — DL, and 25 Mbps uplink — UL, per each), however, its density in specific parts of the city is modeled randomly for each simulation run. The simulation runs have been performed for 4 dates (vernal equinox, summer solstice, autumn equinox, winter solstice), each one from a different season of the year. The aim of such an approach was to highlight the impact of the time of the day and the year on the energy gain obtained thanks to enabling RES generators. The weather conditions assumed within the simulation are typical for the climate in Poland. Methodology The energy-cycle calculations (system's power consumption, renewable energy production, and excessive energy storage) have been based on the mathematical formulas from the scientific literature and performed within the digital simulation runs by using the Green Radio Access Network Design (GRAND) tool (developed by teams from the Ghent University & Poznan University of Technology). The UE-BS association process within the mobile system has been done by doing multi-objective optimization using the Gurobi software, which has taken into account parameters like path loss, predicted power consumption of BSs, and guaranteed DL & UL bit rates for UEs. Simulation setup The setup of the input parameters for used mathematical models (power consumption, energy generation, energy storage) has been done in accordance with the values attached within the delivered literature positions (cited within the publications included in the Related works section of the following dataset) and adjusted to the considered study. Furthermore, the data used to model the network environment (building distribution, coverage area, base stations' locations) as well as to predict weather conditions are the real data (for the year 2022) collected by the city hall of Poznan, one of the Polish mobile operators, and weather stations placed in Poznan, respectively. The number of simulation runs performed has been equal to 10 (each run has included energy-cycle calculations for 4 seasons of the year), with the time step of a single run set to 1 hour of the day. Results The results of the aforementioned investigations have been included in the attached files, which can be described as follows: File _results_gcas.csv The first column denotes the date (season of the year), for which the values have been obtained. The columns from second to fifth present observed values of the State of Charge (SoC) of a battery system (in %) for a single network cell on average in a time step. Those columns are the obtained values for the RAN, in which no RES, only PVs, only WTs, and both types of RES generators have been enabled, respectively. Files _results_scas.csv & _results_kras.csv The first column denotes the date (season of the year), for which the values have been obtained. The second and third columns denote the number of drone base station (DBS) exchanges within the wireless system on average in a particular time step, where no RES and only PVs are enabled, respectively. The fourth and fifth columns present the conventional (fossil-fuels-based) energy consumption (in kWh) for the whole system in a specific time step, in which no RES and only PVs are engaged for all the access nodes. The sixth column is the energy savings (in kWh) related to the use of RES generators within the mobile network. Furthermore, the seventh and eighth columns represent the amount of renewable energy harvested from the solar radiation in total and the peak value of this amount observed during the entire day, respectively.

This dataset and codebook correspond to the second round of survey data gathered in Denmark in 2023, within the project FULFILL - Fundamental Decarbonisation Through Sufficiency By Lifestyle Changes. As part of Work Package 3 (WP3) in the FULFILL project, we collected quantitative data from six countries: Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Latvia, and India. The first round of the survey, consisted of recruiting a representative sample of approximately 2000 households in each country. In this second survey round, we recruit around 500 respondents from the initial survey round, ensuring representativity is maintained. This survey is very similar to the survey in the first round and includes a lot of identical items, including a quantitative assessment of the carbon footprint in the housing, mobility, and diet sectors, socio-economic factors such as age, gender, income, education, household size, life stage, and political orientation. Furthermore, the survey includes measures of quality of life, encompassing aspects such as health and well-being, environmental quality, financial security, and comfort. New for this second round, we have incorporated questions regarding the measures respondents adopted in response to the 2022 energy crisis.

This data publication provides two datasets of turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rates sampled during the MomarSat 2022 cruise. One dataset was gathered with a deep autonomous Vertical Microstructure Profiler (VMP-6000). The second dataset was gathered with the MicroRiYo mooring as described in the reference paper (Ferron et al. 2024). The two datasets, one for each instrument, are available as tar files. Each tar file contains fourteen NetCDF files. Each NetCDF file contains the dissipation rate profile, the time (UTC) of the profile start, the geographical position (deployment of the VMP or mooring position), and the mean pressure for each dissipation rate estimate (two estimates at each pressure level from the two shear sensors). Each dissipation rate comes with a quality control matrix QC (14 x 4) that characterizes how the associated mean shear spectrum fitted the expected theoretical Nasmyth spectrum: QC( 1:10, 1 ) : Value of the 10 criteria used (see reference paper) for the dissipation rates of shear 1. QC( 1:10, 2 ): Criteria met (=1) or not met (=0) for shear 1 dissipation rates. QC(11,1): Same criteria as QC(10,1) expressed in terms of mean absolute deviation (MAD) instead of variance (see Lueck et al. 2022) (shear 1). QC(11,2): state whether criteria QC(11,1) is met (=1) or not met (=0) (shear 1). QC(12,1): Number of shear spectra averaged to compute one dissipation rate estimate (shear 1). QC(12,2): Number of accelerometer used to remove vibrations (Goodman et al. 2006; Lueck et al. 2022; Ferron et al. 2023) (shear 1) QC(13,1): MAD (shear 1) QC(13,2): unused QC(14,1): index of first used spectral component to compute the shear variance used in the dissipation rate estimate (shear 1). QC(14,2): index of last used spectral component to compute the shear variance used in the dissipation rate estimate (shear 1). QC(:,3): same as QC(:,1) for shear 2. QC(:,4): same as QC(:,2) for shear 2. Shear data were processed following the processing flow chart of the Atomix SCOR Working Group 160 (https://wiki.app.uib.no/atomix/index.php?title=Flow_chart_for_shear_probes).

The atmosphere concentration of CO2 is steadily increasing and causing climate change. To achieve the Paris 1.5 or 2 oC target, negative emissions technologies must be deployed in addition to reducing carbon emissions. The ocean is a large carbon sink but the potential of marine primary producers to contribute to carbon neutrality remains unclear. Here we review the alterations to carbon capture and sequestration of marine primary producers (including traditional ‘blue carbon’ plants, microalgae, and macroalgae) in the Anthropocene, and, for the first time, assess and compare the potential of various marine primary producers to carbon neutrality and climate change mitigation via biogeoengineering approaches. The contributions of marine primary producers to carbon sequestration have been decreasing in the Anthropocene due to the decrease in biomass driven by direct anthropogenic activities and climate change. The potential of blue carbon plants (mangroves, saltmarshes, and seagrasses) is limited by the available areas for their revegetation. Microalgae appear to have a large potential due to their ubiquity but how to enhance their carbon sequestration efficiency is very complex and uncertain. On the other hand, macroalgae can play an essential role in mitigating climate change through extensive offshore cultivation due to higher carbon sequestration capacity and substantial available areas. This approach seems both technically and economically feasible due to the development of offshore aquaculture and a well-established market for macroalgal products. Synthesis and applications: This paper provides new insights and suggests promising directions for utilizing marine primary producers to achieve the Paris temperature target. We propose that macroalgae cultivation can play an essential role in attaining carbon neutrality and climate change mitigation, although its ecological impacts need to be assessed further. To calculate the parameters presented in Table 1, the relevant keywords "mangroves, salt marshes, macroalgae, microalgae, global area, net primary productivity, CO2 sequestration" were searched through the ISI Web of Science and Google Scholar in July 2021. Recent data published after 2010 were collected and used since area and productivity of plants change with decade. For data with limited availability, such as net primary productivity (NPP) of seagrasses and global area and NPP of wild macroalgae, data collection was extended back to 1980. Total NPP and CO2 sequestration for mangroves, salt marshes, seagrasses and wild macroalgae were obtained by the multiplication of area and NPP/CO2 sequestration density and subjected to error propagation analysis. Data were expressed as means ± standard error.
