Arctic Ostracode Database Sample Locations

The Arctic Ostracode Database (AOD) provides modern census data of benthic marine ostracodes in surface sediment samples collected from shallow to deep areas of the Arctic Ocean. The dots designate the sample locations, with specific taxa groups color-coded by deep-sea (blue) and coastal (yellow) areas. Map courtesy of Huai-Hsuan M. Huang.
