Bunger Hills Salt mineralogy, sediment extract chemistry, glacial sediment grain size, surface weathering characteristics

The data consists of an excel workbook with five sheets; 1. Location and mineralogy of samples of salt taken from the land surface. 2. Location and elemental composition of aqueous extracts taken from surface sediments, on a 1 x 1 km grid. 3. Weathering criteria (frost cracks, glacial polish, tafoni...

Description
Summary:The data consists of an excel workbook with five sheets; 1. Location and mineralogy of samples of salt taken from the land surface. 2. Location and elemental composition of aqueous extracts taken from surface sediments, on a 1 x 1 km grid. 3. Weathering criteria (frost cracks, glacial polish, tafoni, wind pits, sand accumulations) on a 1 x 1 km grid. 4. Glacial sediment grain size statistics, from samples collected on a 2 x 2 km grid. 5. Antarctic seawater chemistry from the literature. Five supplemental tables associated with the referenced publication will be found at; https://doi.org/10.1017/S0954102020000073. and http://data.aad.gov.au/metadata/records/AAS_926_Bunger_Hills_Salt_Sediment_Weathering (10.26179/5e1fa087f185c).
