Southern Ocean surface sediment diatom abundances

Diatom percentage abundances in the surface sediments for five Southern Ocean marine sediment cores (TC290, TC288, TC287, U1361A and BC508). Abundances are presented for 45 species and groups and reflect a time-averaged environmental signature for the last 500 yrs at each core site. For each sample...

Description
Summary:Diatom percentage abundances in the surface sediments for five Southern Ocean marine sediment cores (TC290, TC288, TC287, U1361A and BC508). Abundances are presented for 45 species and groups and reflect a time-averaged environmental signature for the last 500 yrs at each core site. For each sample a minimum of 300 diatoms were counted with a light microscope (BH-2 Olympus, x1000 magnification).
