Supplementary Data for "The history of Cenozoic carbonate flux in the Atlantic Ocean constrained by multiple regional carbonate compensation depth reconstructions"
Description
The files on this site accompany the paper:
Dutkiewicz, A. And Müller, R.D., in review, The history of Cenozoic carbonate flux in the Atlantic Ocean constrained by multiple regional carbonate compensation depth reconstructions, Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems.
There are two zipped file archives:
1) backtracked_sites.zip
This archive contains two directories of backtrack site files, one for the North Atlantic and one for the South Atlantic.
Each directory contains a set of files listing, by site:
age(Ma), compacted_depth (observed)(mbsf), compacted_thickness (observed)(m), decompacted_thickness(m), decompacted_density(g/cm3), water_depth(m), tectonic_subsidence (since formation of crust)(m), decompacted_depth(mbsf) dynamic_topography(m) lithology
The lithology classification follows the lithology classes defined in Muller et al. (2018).
A second set of files contains:
age(Ma), depth(mbsf), paleowaterdepth(m), dry_bulk_density(g/cm3), DLSR(m/my), carbonate(weight_%) CAR(mg/cm2/kyr)
DLSR=decompacted linear sedimentation rate
CAR=carbonate accumulation rate
2) regional_Cenozoic_carbonate_thickness_grids.zip
This archive contains 3 folders with grids for modelled Cenozoic carbonate thicknesses for the South Atlantic, central North Atlantic and northern North Atlantic. They can be viewed with netcdf viewers like panoply, or plotted using the Generic Mapping Tools. The workflow for creating these grids can be found on GitHub:
https://github.com/EarthByte/CarbonateSedimentThickness
This site also contains a spreadsheet entitled "Dutkiewicz_Muller_G3_2022_model_data_summary.xlsx"
It contains our model outputs including regional decompacted carbonate sediment volumes and thicknesses, depositional areas, carbonate carbon fluxes and carbonate compensation depths for the northern and central North Atlantic and South Atlantic.
A video entitled "compacted_carb_thick_atlantic_66-0Ma.mp4" shows the Cenozoic evolution of carbonate sediment thickness in the Atlantic Ocean.
