Data_Sediment accumulation rates and carbonate fluxes of deep-sea sediments in the southern Gulf of Mexico

  • 1. CICESE

Description

We present the mass and carbonate annual fluxes, collected by two sediment traps at 1000 m depth, located in the western and southern deep-water region of the Gulf of Mexico, and the total mass and carbonate accumulation rates from 48 sediment cores retrieved from continental slopes and the abyssal plain of the southern Gulf of Mexico (sGM). We also presented the conventional and calibrated radiocarbon age analyzed in planktic foraminifera (> 250 μm size fraction) in sediment cores from the southern Gulf of Mexico, collected in the XIXIMI-7 cruise (May 2019).
