Description
Summary:Counts, shell weight and shell size data of planktonic foraminifera from two depths of the sediment Trap TDLT 2014 in the HAUSGARTEN observatory in the eastern Fram Strait. Comparison of the count data done in the context of this study with count data conducted after the initial retrieval of the trapped material indicate high deviation. It is likely that the samples were affected by dissolution during the storage between retrieval (2015) and analysis (2020/2021), therefore both counts and weight and size data might not be representative. This data is supplement to the dissertation from Tell (2023). This research has been supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) through the International Research Training Group "Processes and impacts of climate change in the North Atlantic Ocean and the Canadian Arctic" (grant no. IRTG 1904). The Sediment trap work was conducted in the framework of the HGF Infrastructure Program FRAM of the Alfred-Wegener-Institute Helmholtz Center for Polar and Marine Research, part of the Helmholtz Program "Changing Earth—Sustaining our Future" (POF IV, 6.1 and 6.3.).
