Pollen and spore counts of sediment core GeoB12624

In tropical eastern Africa, vegetation distribution is largely controlled by regional hydrology, which has varied over the past 20 000 years. Therefore, accurate reconstructions...

Coccolithophores from the western equatorial Indian Ocean off Tanzania

Filtered plankton samples from 8 stations taken during the Meteor cruise M75/2 off Tanzania in March 2006 were analyzed for their coccolithophore content. Using a scanning...

The errors correspond to the limits of the ±1 sigma ranges. DeltaR = 150 ± 60 years. POZ: Poznan Radiocarbon Laboratory. OS: National Ocean Sciences Accelerator Mass...

Stable isotope and Mg/Ca ratio of sediment core GeoB12610-2

To reconstruct the still poorly understood thermocline fluctuations in the western tropical Indian Ocean, a sediment core located off Tanzania (GeoB12610-2; 04°49.00'S,...

Water temperature reconstructions based on paired Uk'37 and Tex86 records, an...

This dataset contains the collection of available published paired Uk'37 and Tex86 records spanning multi-millennial to multi-million year time scales, as well as a collection...

Bulk sediment mineral composition of sediment core GeoB12605-3

Equatorial East Africa experienced significant variations in paleoclimatic and paleoceanographic conditions during the Holocene. These environmental changes influenced...

X-ray fluorescence (XRF) core scanning data of sediment core GeoB12624-1

We present X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) Scanner measurements from a 6 m long sediment core (GeoB12624-1) on the upper slope of Tanzania to reconstruct the climatic evolution in East...
