The Dalradian 'Snowball Earth' - Use of Stable Isotopes to Correlate Glacial Events and Neoproterozoic Stratigraphy of Scotland and Ireland

The 'snowball Earth' theory has been the subject of widespread media attention, particularly its lively defence by key proponent, Prof. Paul Hoffman. This period of earth history from 750 to 540...

Radiocarbon measurements on river wood deposits collected in August 2019, Mackenzie River, Canada

The data comprises of dimensions of large wood pieces and the isotope composition (radiocarbon, stable carbon isotopes) of cellulose extracted from the wood samples. Large Wood (LW) samples were...

Stable isotope and trace element data for planktonic foraminifera from IODP Site U1338 (NERC Grant NE/I528750/1)

Oxygen and carbon isotope ratios (δ18O, δ13C) were measured on 10 to 12 shells of mixed-layer dwelling species Globigerinoides subquadratus from the 250 to 315 μm size fraction from 425 meters...

Compilation of sediment core data from the glacial North Pacific, sourced from the literature. (NERC grant NE/N011716/1)

Collection of North Pacific core-top foraminifera census data. Grant abstract: The geological record offers an invaluable window into the different ways earth's climate can operate. The most recent...

Mesoproterozoic Burzyan and Yurmatau groups, Russia, stable carbon and nitrogen isotopes and Pb-U data (NERC grant NE/V010824/1)

Organic carbon and total nitrogen isotope data for black shales and U-Pb data for apatite solutes from the Burzyan and Yurmatau groups in the Urals, Russia. For detailed discussion see Stüeken,...

Benthic macrofauna and sediment particle size data from 1969 to the present from multiple sources stored on the OneBenthic database

The OneBenthic initiative brings together disparate benthic datasets (i.e. seabed macrofauna and sediment particle size) in one cloud-based PostgreSQL platform. The resulting high-quality,...

Former care leavers who are in suitable accommodation. Former care leavers: Young people aged 19 (i.e., at or near their 19th birthday) who were looked after under any legal status . Suitable...

Clumped and stable Isotope Data for the Falkland Plateau and Deep Sea Drilling Project Site 511 (NERC grant NE/J020842/1)

Clumped isotope analyses, raw data, replicates and temperatures calculated using the empirical calibration of Wacker et al. (2014), recalculated using the [Brand] isotopic parameters.

Monthly analysis of the cellulose and distilled moss water isotope composition for temperate East Anglian mosses

The dataset contains a key to species and locations of moss samples and water samples collected along with relative water contents for moss samples. The stable carbon (13C/12C) and oxygen (18O/17O)...

Identification of lipid biomarker skeletons as potential "chemical fossils" of micro-organisms

Biomarkers are organic molecules found in the natural environment whose stable carbon skeletons have been well preserved. They are often regarded, therefore as "chemical fossils" and can provide...

Noble gas and clumped methane data for samples from Anyue gas field, China (NERC Grant NE/T004452/1)

This dataset contains 6 tables covering all analytical data for samples collected from the Anyue gas field, central Sichuan Basin, China. Table 1 includes major gas species and stable carbon and...
