The data include organic carbon and nitrogen abundances, carbon isotopes, nitrogen isotopes, major and trace element abundances, RockEval and mercury abundances from sedimentary strata across the Paleocene-Eocene thermal maximum. The samples include areas with hydrothermal influence linked to the emplacement of the North-Atlantic Igneous Province and others distal to hydrothermal activity to evaluate the effect of hydrothermal circulation on geochemical cycles. The results are linked to Rochelle-Bates et al. (in prep.) "Hydrothermal ammonium from a Large Igneous Province mitigated early Eocene climate change". * Note: U1568A Rockeval : Red filled cells highlight unreliable data with Tmax less than 350°C or greater than 450°C, or oxygen indices greater than 200.
