(Table S1) Diatom abundance in coastal upwelling systems
Coastal upwelling systems account for approximately half of global ocean primary production and contribute disproportionately to biologically driven carbon sequestration.... -

An organic-walled dinoflagellate cyst analysis was carried out on 53 surface sediment samples from West Africa (17-6°N) to obtain insight in the relationship between their... -
Age models of sediment cores GeoB7920-2 and GeoB9535-4
Radiocarbon ages are given as both uncorrected and as corrected for a reservoir age of 400yrs. They are converted to calendar age using Fairbanks 0107 calibration curve... -
