[Description of methods used for collection/generation of data] In both stations a SAMI-pH (Sunburst Sensors LCC) was attached, at 1 m in the Bay of Palma and at 4 m depth in Cabrera. The pH sensors were measuring pH, in the total scale (pH𝑇T), hourly since December 2018 in the Bay of Palma and since November 2019 in Cabrera. The sensor precision and accuracy are < 0.001 pH and ± 0.003 pH units, respectively. Monthly maintenance of the sensors was performed including data download and surface cleaning. Temperature and salinity for the Cabrera mooring line was obtained starting November 2019 with a CT SBE37 (Sea-Bird Scientific©). Accuracy of the CT is ± 0.002 ∘C for temperature and ± 0.003 mS cm−1−1 for conductivity. Additionally, oxygen data from a SBE 63 (Sea-Bird Scientific ©) sensor attached to the CT in Cabrera were used. Accuracy of oxygen sensors is ± 2% for the SBE 63., [Methods for processing the data] Periodically water samplings for dissolved oxygen (DO), pH in total scale at 25 ∘C (pH𝑇25) and total alkalinity (TA) were obtained during the sensor maintenance campaigns. DO and (pH𝑇25) samples were collected in order to validate the data obtained by the sensors. DO concentrations were evaluated with the Winkler method modified by Benson and Krause by potentiometric titration with a Metrohm 808 Titrando with a accuracy of the method of ± 2.9 μmol kg−1μmol kg−1 and with an obtained standard deviation from the sensors data and the water samples collected of ± 5.9 μmol kg−1μmol kg−1. pH𝑇25T25 data was obtained by the spectrophotometric method with a Shimadzu UV-2501 spectrophotometer containing a 25 ∘C-thermostated cells with unpurified m-cresol purple as indicator following the methodology established by Clayton and Byrne by using Certified Reference Material (CRM Batch #176 supplied by Prof. Andrew Dickson, Scripps Institution of Oceanography, La Jolla, CA, USA). The accuracy obtained from the CRM Batch was of ± 0.0051 pH units and the precision of the method of ± 0.0034 pH units. The mean difference between the SAMI-pH and discrete samples was of 0.0017 pH units., Funding for this work was provided by the projects RTI2018-095441-B-C21 (SuMaEco) and, the BBVA Foundation project Posi-COIN and the Balearic Islands Government projects AAEE111/2017 and SEPPO (2018).

Accuracy of oxygen sensors is ± 2% for the SBE 63., [Methods for processing the data] Once data (available at https://doi.org/XXX/DigitalCSIC/XXX) was validated, several processing steps were performed to ensure an optimal training process for the neural network models. First, all the data of the time series were re-sampled by averaging the data points obtaining a daily frequency. Afterwards, a standard feature-scaling procedure (min-max normalization) was applied to every feature (temperature, salinity and oxygen) and to pHT. Finally, we built our training and validations sets as tensors with dimensions (batchsize, windowsize, 𝑁features), where batchsize is the number of examples to train per iteration, windowsize is the number of past and future points considered and 𝑁features is the number of features used to predict the target series. Temperature values below 𝑇=12.5T=12.5 °C were discarded as they are considered outliers in sensor data outside the normal range in the study area. A BiDireccional Long Short-Term Memory (BD-LSTM) neural network was selected as the best architecture to reconstruct the pHT time series, with no signs of overfitting and achieving less than 1% error in both training and validation sets. Data corresponding to the Bay of Palma were used in the selection of the best neural network architecture. The code and data used to determine the best neural network architecture can be found in a GitHub repository mentioned in the context information., Funding for this work was provided by the projects RTI2018-095441-B-C21, RTI2018-095441-B-C22 (SuMaEco) and Grant MDM-2017-0711 (María de Maeztu Excellence Unit) funded by MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033 and by the “ERDF A way of making Europe", the BBVA Foundation project Posi-COIN and the Balearic Islands Government projects AAEE111/2017 and SEPPO (2018).

[Description of methods used for collection/generation of data] Periodically water sampling for dissolved oxygen (DO) and total alkalinity (TA) was done during the sensor maintenance campaigns of BOATS. In two sites, monthly samples were collected from the same depth as the sensors of the BOATS stations, at 1m at the oceanographic buoy, and 4m in PN Cabrera. Samples were taken for dissolved methane (CH4), dissolved oxygen (DO), total alkalinity (TA), dissolved organic carbon (DOC), Chlorophyll a (Chl a), In both stations monthly discrete samples were collected, at 1 m in the Bay of Palma, Surface for Cap ses Salines and at 4 m depth in Cabrera. Samples were collected by submerging a hose connected to a pump at the sensor height of the BOATS stations in Cabrera and the Bay of Palma. At the third site, the lighthouse of Cap ses Salines, a bucket was used to obtain surface water samples., readme provides background information for xlsx datafiles., Methane (CH4) gas is the most important greenhouse gas (GHG) after carbon dioxide, with open ocean areas acting as discreet CH4 sources and coastal regions as intense but variable CH4 sources to the atmosphere. In this database we report measured CH4 concentrations and calculated air-sea fluxes in three sites of the coastal area of the Balearic Islands Archipelago (Western Mediterranean Basin). CH4 levels and related biogeochemical variables were measured in three coastal sampling sites between 2019 and 2021. CH4 concentrations in seawater ranged from 2.7 to 10.9 nM, without significant differences between the sampling sites. Averaged estimated CH4 fluxes during the sampling period for the three stations oscillated between 0.2 and 9.7 μmol m−2 d−1 following a seasonal pattern and in general all sites behaved as weak CH4 sources throughout the sampling period., Funding for this work was provided by the projects RTI2018-095441-B-C21 (SuMaEco) and, the BBVA Foundation project Posi-COIN and the Balearic Islands Government project SEPPO (PRD2018/18).

PEP-87 Cruise (29GD19870523) carried out on the Research Vessel García del Cid in 1987., The PEP-87 campaign studies deep summer production.

Oceanographic data acquired during the RADMED-ESMARES-0521 Cruise (29GD20210514) on board the Research Vessel García del Cid in 2021., The general objective of the RADMED-ESMARES project is the multidisciplinary monitoring of the shelf and continental slope waters of the Spanish Mediterranean, including both the peninsular coast and the Balearic Islands. The area to be covered is very wide, so in order to optimize the available means, 17 sections are carried out covering the shelf and slope at strategic points of the coast, as well as others in the area of the channels of the Balearic Islands and the Gulf of Valencia where the transports through these determine to a great extent the regional hydrodynamics and affect the general circulation of the MEDOC. The variables to be monitored are physical, chemical and biological variables, aiming to study the hydrographic conditions, planktonic communities, seasonal cycles of these variables and their interannual variability. This monitoring allows us to implement our data banks, generate time series, establish ocean climatologies, study oscillations, trends, anomalies and their relationship with global warming and climate change.

Oceanographic data acquired during the MIAU-DCM Cruise (29GD20210601) on board the Research Vessel García del Cid in 2021., The MIAU-DCM campaign will study the biological characteristics of the deep chlorophyll maximum in the Northwest Mediterranean. To do this, the first 150-200 meters of the water column will be sampled with CTD along a transect between the towns of Blanes and a point near Cape Formentor, and from the continental shelf (depth 40-50 meters). Once the depth of the DCM has been defined, and its variability along the transect, the stations in which biological sampling will be carried out will be defined, which will consist of taking samples from approximately 100 m and the surface. In addition, station D (in the middle of the basin) will be characterized up to 2500 meters.

Oceanographic data acquired during the SUMMIT Cruise (29GD20210610) on board the Research Vessel García del Cid in 2021., The SUMMIT campaign consists of comparing three stations in the Catalan-Balearic Sea: station D in deep waters in the middle of the basin, on the way to the Menorca Canal, where shallow CTD sets will be made (200 m); station E in deep waters but somewhat more productive to the NE, where the same CTD sets will be made; and station S in platform waters near Blanes, with similar routines. Most of the tasks will consist of experiments on deck, especially in incubation tanks bathed with surface water.

Oceanographic data acquired during the BACT&PLAST-1 Cruise (29GD20210621) on board the Research Vessel García del Cid in 2021., BACT&PLAST-1 campaign will take place in the area is in front of the rivers mouths Llobregat and Besos. The tasks to be carried out consist of carrying out CTD transects and water sampling, obtaining sediment cores by multicorer, and trawling the manta trawl for microplastic fishing.
