Abstract:
Diatom data include the raw counts (n), abundance per year (n/a) and flux (n/m2/a) of diatoms collected from annual layers in the Ferrigno ice core (74.57° S, 86.90° W, 1354 m.a.s.l.). Zonal and meridional wind speeds (m/s) are extracted from ERA interim climate simulations and cover defined regions, for monthly and annual averages for the period 1980-2010, see further details.
