Length of prey items found in the stomach of polar cod (Boreogadus saida) from the central Arctic Ocean

This file contains length measurements performed on prey items found in the stomach content of polar cod (Boreogadus saida) caught from underneath the sea ice of the central Arctic Ocean during spring and summer. The fish were collected during Polarstern expeditions PS80 (2012), PS92 (2015), PS106.2 (2017) and PS122 (2019/2020). The data was collected to gain knowledge on the diet of polar cod and the ice-associated food web of the central Arctic. The stomach contents of 86 individuals were analysed using a Discovery V8 stereomicroscope (Zeiss, Germany). Length measurements were performed on prey items found in the stomachs using an AxioCam HRc with AxioVision40 V 4.8.2.0 software (Zeiss, Germany), including Calanus spp., Tisbe spp, Themisto spp, and Apherusa glacialis.
