Description

The dataset compiles morphological measurements of coccoliths (Gephyrocapsa spp. and Emiliania huxleyi, >2µm) from surface samples of the South China Sea retrieved at different depths of the basin during the R/V Sonne cruises (SO-95); and of Gephyrocapsa spp. from one sample from the Western Equatorial Pacific (ODP 807A, -2H-2W, 57-59 cm) used in a dissolution experiment. The columns include station names, Longitude, Latitude, Depth (m), how much Calgon was added into sediment suspension (in the dissolution experiment), number of coccoliths measured per sample, mean ks shape factor, thickness, length, volume, mass, and standard deviation of mean ks/mean ks.
