Abstract:
This data data set is the taxonomically harmonized pollen data from records 2831 sites. 1032 sites are located in North America, 1075 sites in Europe, 488 sites in Asia, 150 sites in South America, 54 in Africa and 32 in the Indopacific. Most of the data where retrieved from the Neotoma Paleoecology Database (https://www.neotomadb.org/), with additional data from Cao et al. (2020; https://doi.org/10.5194/essd-12-119-2020), Cao et al. (2013, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.revpalbo.2013.02.003) and our own collection for the Asian sector. The ages of the samples refer to the newly established LegacyAge 1.0 framework (https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.933132). The 10,110 original pollen taxa names and notations were harmonized to 1002 taxa names. We present the table with the harmonization approach crossreferencing the original taxa with the harmonized taxa name. The harmonised pollen data are presented as counts (when available) and as percentage values. We complement the data publication by providing the source information on the references (most data are related to Neotoma) as a table linked to each Dataset ID. The data set and site IDs are from Neotoma if the data sets are derived from the Neotoma repository. In case of our own data collection efforts (Cao et al. (2020), Cao et al. (2013) and our own data) we used the already published PANGAEA event names in case they are related to the data or created own site names with referencing to geographical regions similar to the Neotoma data naming principle.
