[{"name":"weitkamp-2024-foraminifera-nannofossils-1","title":"North Atlantic Oligocene-Pleistocene planktonic foraminifera and calcareous nannofossil abundances","summary":"The dataset includes total counts and relative abundances of planktonic foraminifera (>125\u00b5m size fraction) and semi-quantitative estimates of calcareous nannofossils from DSDP (Deep Sea Drilling Project) Site 407 near Reykjanes Ridge, a submarine section of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge southwest of Iceland.\r\n\r\nThis dataset is valuable for planktonic foraminifera and calcareous nannofossil biostratigraphy in the high-latitude North Atlantic, allowing researchers to study changes in planktonic foraminifera diversity from the Oligocene to Pleistocene epochs.\r\n\r\nSamples were obtained from the IODP (International Ocean Discovery Program) Core Repository in Bremen and processed at the Department of Geological Sciences, Stockholm University.","citations":"Weitkamp TM, Razmjooei MJ, Pearson PN, Coxall HK (2024) Upper Oligocene to Pleistocene planktonic foraminifera stratigraphy at North Atlantic DSDP Site 407, Reykjanes Ridge: diversity trends and biozonation using modern Neogene taxonomic concepts.
