Pollen from sediment core PG1351 was analysed by Lozhkin et al. (2007), but there was no sediment left to sample the same core depths for Monosaccharide anhydrides (MA) analyses (doi:10.1594/PANGAEA.915603). Therefore, we sampled 19 of the 44 MA sample's core depths for parallel pollen analyses to enable a direct comparison of MA and pollen records without age bias. These new pollen samples were prepared using standard pollen preparation procedures as have been used previously for the El'gygytgyn sediments (Andreev et al., 2012).
