3D images of fossil planktonic foraminifera from the western Pacific Ocean: a database concerning two biostratigraphic events during the Early Pleistocene

Here we present planktonic foraminifera X-ray images dataset during 1.72-2.15 million years ago using Microfocus X-ray CT (MXCT) and Projection X-ray Microscopy (PXM) technologies in a sedimentary core ODP Hole 1115B (9 11'S, 151 34E, water depth 1149 m) in the Solomon Sea. The species Globigee...

Description
Summary:Here we present planktonic foraminifera X-ray images dataset during 1.72-2.15 million years ago using Microfocus X-ray CT (MXCT) and Projection X-ray Microscopy (PXM) technologies in a sedimentary core ODP Hole 1115B (9 11'S, 151 34E, water depth 1149 m) in the Solomon Sea. The species Globigeerinoideseela fistuolsa, Trilobatus sacculifer, and Pulleniatina spp. tests were hand-picked and gently cleaned for X-ray images. In total, there are 20 individuals with 20 images are presented in this dataset.-
