XRF measurements of Bromine and SiO2 for sediment core RAPiD-21-03K

The core RAPiD-21-03K was scanned using an ITRAX X-Ray Fluorescence core scanner at 0.002 m (1.6 year) resolution for flux quantification. Br and Si intensities were calibrated...

Diatom morphometric analysis for sediment core RAPiD-21-03K

14 of the 50 samples used in silica quantification were used for size analysis, wherein 12-13 Coscinodiscus spp. frustules per sample were observed under a scanning electron...

Silicon-28 in radiolaria for sediment core RAPiD-21-03K

50 samples were taken at 0.02 m depth intervals from the uppermost metre of the core RAPiD-21-03K to cover the past ~800 years with approximately 8-year resolution, for the...

Silicon-28 in diatoms for sediment core RAPiD-21-03K

50 samples were taken at 0.02 m depth intervals from the uppermost metre of the core RAPiD-21-03K to cover the past ~800 years with approximately 8-year resolution, for the...

Silicon-28 in each blank for sediment core RAPiD-21-03K

Diatom frustules and radiolarian tests picked from the core RAPiD-21-03K were dissolved in 0.5mL 1.0M potassium hydroxide solution (KOH) for quantification of Si-28 using...

Diatom valve flux of sediment core RAPiD-21-03K

A theoretical flux of diatoms to the sediment was calculated in core RAPiD-21-03K at the corresponding depths to the SiO2/diatom measurements by dividing the mass flux of silica...

Dry bulk density of sediment core RAPiD-21-03K

The dry bulk density has been previously measured for the core RAPiD-21-03K. In this dataset, 'depth' is the midpoint distance each sediment sample was taken from the top of the...

Age model of sediment core RAPiD-21-03K and RAPiD-21-12B

The age-model for the core RAPiD-21-03K was produced using four carbon-14 accelerator mass-spectrometry values from Sicre et al. (2011), which were taken approximately every 0.2...

Indian Ocean surface oxygen isotopes of seawater (ice volume corrected) stack...

Indian Ocean surface circulation is an important part of the global ocean conveyor belt, and is connected via two important gateways including the Indonesian Throughflow, and...

Indian Ocean sea surface temperature stack

Indian Ocean surface circulation is an important part of the global ocean conveyor belt, and is connected via two important gateways including the Indonesian Throughflow, and...

Occurrence of Globorotalia cavernula in the water column and sediments: globa...

Here, we present a global compilation of previously reported sightings of the rare planktic foraminifer Globorotalia cavernula Bé, 1967 as well as new observations of...
