Excel (xlsx) file with five spreadsheets:
1. Sample list with ID, sample depth and sample age
2. Age model built using Bacon and 10 ¹⁴C dates where one outlier was excluded
3. Elemental data (X-Ray Florescence elemental data) as well as Total Organic Carbon (TOC) and Total Nitrogen (TN), by depth and age
4. FITR Data: raw spectral data for each sample, with the wave number on the vertical and the sample on the horizontal
5. Pollen: the studied species, by depth and age
The xlsx file contains all original data from the SEK2016 sequence which was collected from Lesotho in 2016. Coordinates: 29° 36’ 31” S, 29° 15’ 54” E. Samples were collected using a Russian corer further down (C2) and then cut from an exposed gully wall (C1 in the middle and C3 at the top).
The same data are also provided in five comma-separated values (csv) files, one file corresponding to each sheet in the xlsx file. Character set: Unicode (utf-8).
Note that the elemental and pollen data are made roughly every other sample while the FTIR is made every sample.
