ODP982: ODP Site 982 Benthic Stable Isotope Data

In mcrucifix/pleistocene: Datasets of glacial cycles (ice and ocean)

Description

Core/Site: ODP982 Latitude: 57.30.05N ( 57.50139) Longitude: 15.52.03W ( -15.8675) Water Depth(m): 1145 Glacial North Atlantic Intermediate Water during the past 1 Ma. Precision: +/- 0.08 per mil for d18O (delta 18O). +/- 0.05 per mil for d13C. and for carbonate data precision was estimated to be +/- 0.7% Notes are Hole Core Section Interval. Depth in dataset was Meter Composite Depth which was converted to cm.
