The dataset contains 12 new Be-10 cosmogenic nuclide surface exposure ages. The samples were collected from a scoria cone 1.5 km west of Mt. Murphy an exposed volcanic edifice adjacent to Pope Glacier in the Amundsen Sea Embayment, Antarctica. Samples of erratic cobbles which showed evidence of transport by ice were collected over the 2015-2016 AmuNdsen Sea Embayment Exposure Dating (ANISEED) Field Season, prepared at the CosmIC laboratory, Imperial College London and measured for Be-10 at the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation. Beryllium-10 concentrations were measured by Accelerated Mass Spectrometry (AMS). Samples were measured to determine timing of deglaciation of two rock outcrops to better constrain the ice sheet lowering history of Pope Glacier during the Holocene. Study forms part of the wider International Thwaites Glacier Collaboration Project (ITGC). Samples were collected by Dr. Joanne Johnson and Dr. Stephen Roberts (British Antarctic Survey), supported by field assistants Alistair Docherty and Iain Rudkin. Sample preparation for 10Be measurement was carried out by Jonathan Adams - PhD candidate affiliated with British Antarctic Survey/ Imperial College London under the supervision of Dr. Dylan Rood - Imperial College London. AMS measurements of Beryllium-10 concentrations were performed by Dr. Klaus Wilcken - Australia's Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO).

This dataset consists of spectral reflectance measurements in the visible to shortwave infrared wavelength range (0.35 - 2.5 micrometer) of 17 rock samples from Mount Murphy, a volcanic edifice in the Amundsen Sea Embayment of West Antarctica. These spectral measurements provide ground validation for satellite-based geologic mapping of the Mt Murphy edifice and surrounding nunataks. Samples measured for spectral reflectance were collected during the 1990-1991, 1992-1993 and 2015-2016 Antarctic Field Seasons. Funding source: Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) Grants NE/S006710/1, NE/S006753/1 and NE/K012088/1 and studentship to JRA. The dataset is a component of the "Geological History Constraints" project of the NERC-NSF funded International Thwaites Glacier Collaboration (ITGC).

This dataset consists of measurements of cosmogenic 14C in quartz for cobbles collected from a series of nunataks (Turtle Rock, Notebook Cliffs, scoria cone) proximal to Mount Murphy, a volcanic edifice located between Pope and Thwaites glaciers, West Antarctica. The cobbles were collected during the 2015-2016 Antarctic field season. The dataset includes 13 cosmogenic nuclide surface exposure ages and all field (location, elevation, shielding, thickness) and analytical laboratory data required to calculate in situ 14C exposure ages. Analytical data includes quartz sample mass, total CO2 liberated from the sample, delta-13C, 14C/12C AMS ratios and 14C/12C AMS ratios of procedural blanks.
