NextData – Archive of paleoclimatic data from marine cores
CATEGORY: Featured Maps
One of the aims of NEXTDATA Project is the implementation of paleo-climatic database of marine sediment cores of the Mediterranean Sea. This archive includes marine sediment core information from NOAA and Seadatanet databases as well as data published in the scientific literature and available in the IAMC-CNR, Naples repository. For each core, the sampling device, water_depth, core length, year, data source holder, vessel and cruise name are archived. For cores analyzed and reported in previous publications, paleo-climatic biotic proxies (planktonic and benthonic foraminifera, calcareous nannoplankton, pollen, dinoflagellate, diatom) and abiotic proxies (stable isotopic data, paleomagnetism, petrophysical signal, lithological signature record, tephra layer) are also provided
