Duffy and Imbrie's SPECMAP Ocean Cores with 400,000 years BP

Entry ID: NCAR_DS863.0

[ Update this Record ]

Summary

Abstract: Atlantic Ocean core data, about 400K years, SPECMAP. This archive gives
Paleoclimate data for a selection of Atlantic cores. It has O-18
data for about 16 cores covering about 400,000 years. Age models for
the cores are given. Derived sea surface temperature estimates for
15 cores are given. Delta 13-C data is available for selected cores.
Planktic formam counts and factor loadings are given for the cores.
Another file includes solar orbital data. This is SPECMAP archive
No. 1, 28 Mar 1989.
