<p dir="ltr">This dataset contains CO<sub>2</sub> production rates of resuspended and undisturbed marine surface sediments (top 3 cm) determined through the resuspension assay (Bartl et al. 2025) and surface sediment characteristics (top 3 cm) including sediment grain size, organic matter content and phytopigments. Metadata include sampling location, sampling time and water depth. This results from this dataset are presented in: Bartl and Thrush, Sediment heterogeneity shapes spatial variability of resuspension-induced CO<sub>2</sub> production, egusphere-2025-3045.</p><p dir="ltr">Bartl, I., Evans, T., Hillman, J., and Thrush, S.: Simple assay quantifying sediment resuspension effects on marine carbon storage, Methods Ecol Evol, 16, 309–316, https://doi.org/10.1111/2041-210X.14479, 2025.</p>
