[{"name":"martinez-cortizas-2021-bocelo-mire-1","title":"Infrared spectral data of peat and ash from Cruz do Bocelo mire, northwestern Spain","summary":"The dataset contains standardized absorbance values of spectra for peat and ash samples, collected in the mid infrared (wavenumber 4000\u200a\u2013\u200a\u2060400 cm\u207b\u00b9) region using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy - Attenuated total reflectance (FTIR-ATR).\r\n\r\nThe spectra enable the characterization of the molecular and mineral composition of peat and ash, and how they vary with depth. It also helps in establishing the chronology of changes in the mineral composition of the deposited dust and understanding the factors controlling these changes.\r\n\r\nThe samples were obtained from a core collected in 2007 at Cruz do Bocelo mire (NW Spain) and cover the last 2800 years.
