Mg/Ca and Li/Ca of benthic foraminifera of sediment core RR0503-79JPC from the southwest Pacific

DOI

Mg/Ca and Mg/Li in benthic foraminifera have been used for paleotemperature reconstructions of intermediate and deep water masses. Here we present Mg/Ca and Li/Ca data for Uvigerina peregrina and Hoeglundina elegans for sediment core RR0503-79JPC, located at 1165 m water depth in the Bay of Plenty, north of New Zealand. This record covers the last deglaciation, from ~25–5 ka BP, and was created to help analyze changes in temperatures of intermediate waters across the last glacial termination.
