Particle-size measurements at 3-m intervals for AND-2A sediment core, McMurdo Sound

This dataset contains measurements of particle-size distributions on sediment from ANDRILL Site AND-2A. Carbonate, and organic matter were removed through addition of 10mL aliquots of 30% H2O2 and 2mL aliquots of 10% HCl to ~50-100mL suspension on a hot plate. Dispersion was through heating with sod...
