This data file includes all XRF data from sapropel S5 used in the manuscript and the age per sample based on the initial age model. Each of the tabs contains the measurements at a specific resolution (of the same depth interval). The measurements were performed on core 64PE-406-E1. For all analyses, the element/totalCPS (base 10) log ratio is used. If more then 1 data point exists at a given depth, the first is used (using the "unique" command in matlab).
