Summary
Abstract: This data set contains Central Equatorial Pacific Export Production and CaCO3
Dissolution Data.

Inorganic chemical analysis of five JGOFS piston cores on a meridional transect
at ~140 West across the equator (4N to 5S) in the tropical Pacific, providing a
record of ~1 million years of export production and carbonate dissolution
data.
