[{"name":"vermassen-2023-lake-lucerne-1","title":"Grain size and paleomagnetic data of sediment cores from Lake Lucerne, Switzerland","summary":"The dataset contains grain-size and natural remanent magnetization data from sediment cores obtained from Lake Lucerne, Switzerland. The sediment cores were collected in 2014 using the vessel Thallasa.\r\n\r\nVarious grain-size parameters are presented (mean, mode, sand percentage, silt percentage, clay percentage) for the two cores LU14-12 and LU14-28. Natural remanent magnetization data is presented for core LU14-12 (inclination, declination, and mean angular deviation).\r\n\r\nThe grain-size data and natural remanent magnetization data deliver information on the deposition of a megaturbidite that occurred in the year 1601, as a result of a nearby earthquake.","citations":"Vermassen F, Van Daele M, Praet N, Cnudde V, Kissel C, Anselmetti FS (2023) Unravelling megaturbidite deposition: Evidence for turbidite stacking\/amalgamation and seiche influence during the 1601 CE earthquake at Lake Lucerne, Switzerland.
