| Summary: | Aim Biodiversity dynamics comprise evolutionary and ecological changes on multiple temporal scales from millions of years to decades, but they are often interpreted within a single time frame. Planktonic foraminifera communities offer a unique opportunity for analyzing the dynamics of marine biodiversity over different temporal scales. Our study aims to provide a baseline for assessments of biodiversity patterns over multiple time scales, which is urgently needed to interpret biodiversity responses to increasing anthropogenic pressure. Location Global (26 sites) Time period Five time scales: multi-million-year (0-7 Ma), million-year (0-0.5 Ma), multi-millennial (0-15 thousand years), millennial (0-1100 years), and decadal (0-32 years) Major taxa studied Planktonic foraminifera Methods We analysed community composition of planktonic foraminifera at five time scales, combining measures of standing diversity (richness and ENS, effective number of species) with measures of temporal community turnover ... : This data base contains results of time series analysis of planktonic foraminifera diversity. Original data on foraminifera community composition used in this analysis were obtained from literature and all data sources are listed in the Appendix S1 (Supporting Information Online).
