Description

The data set comprises of sea surface temperatures, salinity which were recorded from Akajima Island, Okinawa Prefecture, Japan during the year 2003 and 2004. The tidal heights data was generated using the software Tide Predictor for the Akajima Island. The  Element/Ca analysis of larger benthic foraminifera Amphistegina lessonii was carried out by using Femto-second Laser Ablation Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometer (fs-LA-ICP-MS) technique at the Department of Climate Geochemistry, Max Planck Institute for Chemistry. The co-variation and correlation plots of Element/Ca with tidal heights, sea surface temperature and sea surface salinity are also provided.
