Description

Counts, shell weight and shell size data of planktonic foraminifera from two depths of the sediment Trap TDLT 2014 in the HAUSGARTEN observatory in the eastern Fram Strait. Comparison of the count data done in the context of this study with count data conducted after the initial retrieval of the trapped material indicate high deviation. It is likely that the samples were affected by dissolution during the storage between retrieval (2015) and analysis (2020/2021), therefore both counts and weight and size data might not be representative.

This data is supplement to the dissertation from Tell (2023).
