This data presents high precision Th/U ages from seep carbonates obtained from a 5-meter-long rock core (GeoB 23225-1, MeBo24) collected by the sea floor drill rig MARUM-MeBo200 in Yam Seep, SW offshore Taiwan during SO266, RV Sonne. The dating results provide records of over 40 thousand years old g...
