At the time it was the most extended data compilation on ferromanganese deposits world wide. Initially published in a proprietary format incompatible with present day standards it was jointly decided by AWI and NOAA to transcribe this legacy data into PANGAEA. This transfer is augmented by a careful checking of the original sources when available and the encoding of ancillary information (sample description, method of analysis...) not present in the NOAA-MMS database.-151.2383-125.4478.238315.778333DOMES Site C, Pacific OceanDOMES Site A, Pacific OceanDOMES Site B, Pacific Ocean
