Palynology and palaeothermometry data from Eocene sediments recovered by IODP Expedition 318. (NERC grant NE/I00646X/2)
The datasets consist of a spreadsheets containing sporomorph and biomarker data for 145 samples from Eocene sediments recovered by Integrated Ocean Drilling Programme Expedition 318. We studied palynology (pollen and dinocysts) and palaeothermometry based on Glycerol Dialkyal Glycerol Tetraethers (GDGTs) to a sedimentary record from the Wilkes Land margin, East Antarctica, recovered by the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP Expedition 318 Site U1356). These data sets provide the framework for a terrestrial climate reconstruction for the early Eocene of Antarctica. Further details of the data and their interpretation may be found in Pross et al. (2012), doi:10.1038/nature11300 and Bijl et al. (2013), PNAS, doi/10.1073/pnas.1220872110 The associated NERC grant is NE/I00646X/1 and NE/I00646X/2.

- Statement
- Palynology: standard palynological and organic geochemical procedures of the Laboratory of Paleobotany and Palynology of Utrecht University, the G-MOL Laboratory (Glasgow University) and Marine Microbiology and Biogeochemistry, NIOZ were used to process samples for palynology and organic geochemistry. See the supplementaries of Pross et al (2012) and Bijl et al (2013) for extensive details on the sample work up, analytical methods and data processing.
