Statement

Core MD04-2832 was collected using a giant piston corer from the research vessel Marion Dufresne on the 15th of June 2004. The core was collected from the middle basin of Loch Sunart (56.669833, -5.868667) at a water depth of 52.1m. Samples where stored at 4°C prior to sub-sampling and analysis. The cores were split and volumetric subsamples collected at 5cm intervals. The samples were freeze-dried and milled prior to analysis. The bulk and inorganic geochemical analysis was carried out at the University of St Andrews, while organic geochemistry analysis was undertaken and the University of Florida. Full methodological approaches can be found in the supporting documentation (.rts file) within this data resource. Further methodological details can be found in Smeaton, et al.,(2021), The evolution of a coastal carbon store over the last millennium, Quaternary Science Reviews.
