Clay-mineral composition and biogenic opal content of Late Neogene to Quatern...

Clay-mineral composition and biogenic opal content in upper Miocene to Quaternary drift sediments recovered at two Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) sites from the continental rise...

Global compilation of benthic data sets I

Approaches to quantify the organic carbon accumulation on a global scale generally do not consider the small-scale variability of sedimentary and oceanographic boundary...

Clay mineralogy of sediment cores from the South Atlantic and the Adjoining S...

In the South Atlantic and adjoining Southern Ocean the kaolinite/chlorite-ratio in Late Quaternary sediments are an alternative deep water proxy to benthic foraminiferal proxies...

Radiolarian-based bransfer function for the estimation of sea surface tempera...

A new radiolarian-based transfer function for sea surface temperature (SST) estimations has been developed from 23 taxa and taxa groups in 53 surface sediment samples recovered...

Sea-surface temperature and sea ice distribution of the Southern Ocean at the...

Based on the quantitative study of diatoms and radiolarians, summer sea-surface temperature (SSST) and sea ice distribution were estimated from 122 sediment core localities in...

Magnetic susceptibility and ice-rafted debris in surface sediments of the Atl...

Spatial distribution of magnetic susceptibility and the gravel fraction in surface sediments in the Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean were investigated to reconstruct source...

Radiolarian-based paleotemperatures of ODP Site 177-1089 in the Atlantic Sect...

Two cores, Site 1089 (ODP Leg 177) and PS2821-1, recovered from the same location (40°56'S; 9°54'E) at the Subtropical Front (STF) in the Atlantic Sector of the Southern Ocean,...

Physical properties measured on sediment cores from the Southern Ocean, Wedde...

This collection of 359 data sets represents raw data of physical properties measurements on Polarstern sediment cores from both polar oceans, sampled and measured between 1985...

Relative abundance of dinoflagellate cysts in surface sediments and dinoflage...

In this study we investigate the potential of organic-walled dinoflagellate cysts (dinocysts) as tools for quantifying past sea-surface temperatures (SST) in the Southern Ocean....

Standard meteorological measurements on board of POLARSTERN during expedition...

During the fourth Antarctic voyage ANT-IV of the research icebreaker POLARSTERN standard meteorological measurements have been performed. The measurements include 3-hourly...

Southern Ocean RADiolarian dataset (SO-RAD)

Radiolarians (holoplanktonic Protozoa) found in marine sediments are commonly used in Southern Ocean as palaeoclimate proxies. Generating such reconstructions of past climate...

Tab. 1 + 2: Distribution chart of nannoplankton species record

Between March and April of 1986 a series of water samples were taken in the South Atlantic to study the Recent calcareous nannoplankton assemblages in that part of the world....

Sediment echosounder (3.5 kHz) profiles of POLARSTERN cruise ANT-IV/4

The 3.5 kHz-sediment echosounder profiles of cruise ANT-IV/4 were originally recorded on 18 paper rolls. Each roll was digitized using a scanner "Océ CS 4044 Colour System" by...

Swath sonar bathymetry during POLARSTERN cruise ANT-IV/4 (PS08) with links to...

Multibeam data were collected during R/V Polarstern cruise ANT-IV/4. Data recording was executed on transit from Cape Town to Mandela Fracture Zone, Maud Rise and Punta Arenas...
