The data includes carbon and oxygen stable isotopes together with top and bottom U-Th ages of stalagmites collected in Northwest, Central and Southern Vietnam. The purpose of this work was to identify suitable specimens that can be used for palaeoclimatic reconstructions. The stalagmites collected were found broken in-situ, and the exact location of the caves is not given here for cave protection purposes. The stalagmites were collected in February and March 2023, and geochemical analyses performed between April and December 2023.

Dataset is comprised of stable isotopes (oxygen and carbon) of benthic foraminifera from sediments from International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Expedition 382, Site U1534, South Falkland Sediment Drift. 53.18967 S, 58.76083 W (605 m water depth). The sediment cores were collected from 3 holes using the advanced piston corer onboard RV Joides Resolution from site U1534 between 29/03/2019 and 02/04/2019. Suitable specimens of benthic foraminifera were identified and picked from the >250 micron size fraction sediment at BAS between March 2020 and May 2021. Isotope analysis was carried out between March-August 2021. The data were collected as part of a project aiming to investigate the sensitivity of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation to variability in Pacific-Atlantic connectivity via the 'cold water route'. Dr Victoria Louise Peck was the principle investigator for this project. Funding provided by NERC UKIODP moratorium grant NE/T010908/1 and analytical support from NEIF steering committee application IP-1950-119.
