Temperature proxy data for the late Paleocene and Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum from the Australo-Antarctic Gulf ...

The data include temperature proxy data (TEX86, MBT, brGMGT-I, NLR) and palynology (dinocyst assemblage data) for two coastal sections in the Australo-Antarctic Gulf. The stratigraphy of these sections is described in Frieling et al. (2018). The new data were generated to provide detailed multi-prox...

Description
Summary:The data include temperature proxy data (TEX86, MBT, brGMGT-I, NLR) and palynology (dinocyst assemblage data) for two coastal sections in the Australo-Antarctic Gulf. The stratigraphy of these sections is described in Frieling et al. (2018). The new data were generated to provide detailed multi-proxy temperature reconstructions for the region. A combination of organic geochemistry (lipid biomarker) analyses and palynology (mainly dinoflagellate cysts (dinocyst)) were conducted. A paper describing the results has been submitted (doi supplied when available). Sediment samples were acquired (by hand) during a field campaign to the coastal outcrop section at Point Margaret, Australia (-38.724667 N, 143.176389 E, 0m elevation) 14-28th of February 2016. Core samples from the Latrobe-1 borehole (-38.693056 N, 143.150000 E; drilled in 1963, ca. 20m elevation) were acquired from the geological survey core repository (Melbourne) during the same trip. From these sediment samples we quantified isoprenoid and branched ...
