Relative abundance of radiolarian from different cores in the Pacific Ocean

Radiolarian census counts (in relative abundance) and environmental data from 801 core-tops distributed across the Pacific Ocean (mmn8).

Radiolaria abundance of Hole 29-278

Relative abundance: D = dominant, A = abundant, C = common, F = few, R = rare, T = trace, P = present (numerical values are abundance in percent)

(Table 4) Radiolarians in ODP Hole 113-689B

Species abundances: A = abundant (>50 % of total assemblage), C = common (15-50 %) F = few (3-15 %), R = rare (1-3 %), T = trace (<1 %).

(Appendix A) Radiolarian abundances in sediment core MD96-2086

Ages are from the age model of Bertrand et al. (2002, doi:10.1016/S0025-3227(01)00216-X) based on the benthic oxygen-isotope record measured on Cibicidoides wuellerstorfi

Southern Ocean RADiolarian dataset (SO-RAD)

Radiolarians (holoplanktonic Protozoa) found in marine sediments are commonly used in Southern Ocean as palaeoclimate proxies. Generating such reconstructions of past climate...
