Data description
The dataset is included in a zip file which contains two data files. One file (xls) contains lithology data (size fractions) from four subsea permafrost drillcores described in the article by Shakova (2017). One file (xlsx) contains temperature measurements at different depths and time points at the sites. Geographical coordinates and further details are provided in the article.
