22 short surface sediment cores (13-93 cm; gravity cores 1m, 80mm iD) from shelf, slope and deeps of mid SE Skagerrak were analysed for water content, Pb210, and partly for Cs137, grain size and heavy metals. The data address sediment accumulation and modification in this hydrodynamically exposed area downslope to the deep depositional sites.

Pb210: HCl extr'd, Po210 self-depos. on Ag, Po210 alpha counting, surf. barrier detector;
