Recovery and analysis of the KCC ice core, associated written records, and interpretation were supported by the Arcadia Fund of London; The Initiative for the Science of the Human Past at Harvard; The Climate Change Institute at the University of Maine. Institutes involved in drilling, processing and funding: Heidelberg University (D), Institute of Environmental Physics (leading institute); University of Bern (CH), Physics Institute, Climate and Environmental Physics (Remo Walther, Samuel Marending, Jakob Schwander); University of Maine (US), Climate Change Institute; University of Fribourg (CH); Alfred-Wegener-Institut Helmholtz-Zentrum für Meeres- und Polarforschung (D). Comment: Dataset corresponds to Figures 1 (High marine air influx in the years of World War I and Spanish Influenza 1914-1919) and 2 (Marine air influx and total deaths in Europe 1914-1920) in the final manuscript.
