The dataset includes:
1. Age model of core SWERUS-L2-31PC on the Greenland Ice Core Chronology 2005 (GICC05) timescale.
2. Physical properties measured at 1 cm intervals with a GeoTek Multi-Sensor Core Logger: Porosity (%), Bulk Density (g/cm³) and Magnetic Susceptibility (MS1, SI × 10⁻⁵)
3. Organic carbon content (Corg, % wt) of the sediment.
The dataset is included in one spreadsheet (xlsx) file with three data tables. The same data are also included in three comma-separated values (csv) files. File content:
###### Age model
* Depth (m)
* Weighted mean age (GICC05 years b2k)
* Median age (GICC05 years b2k)
* Upper 99% credible interval (GICC05 years b2k)
* Lower 99% credible interval (GICC05 years b2k)
###### Physical properties
* Core
* Section
* Interval (cm)
* Depth (m)
* Weighted mean age (GICC05 years b2k)
* Porosity (% vol)
* Bulk Density (g/cm³)
* MS1 (SI × 10⁻⁵)
###### Organic carbon
* Depth (m)
* Weighted mean age (GICC05 years b2k)
* Corg (%)
Code for missing values: NA
The core was collected from 79.91° N, 143.23° E in 1120 m water depth. The age model is on the GICC05 timescale ([Rasmussen et al. 2006](https://doi.org/10.1029/2005JD006079). A new Greenland ice core chronology for the last glacial termination. J. Geophys. Res., 111, D06102). Note that credibility intervals do not include maximum counting uncertainty associated with the ice-core chronology, but only consider the uncertainty associated with the alignment between the 31-PC porosity data and GISP2 δ¹⁸O data.
