Abstract:
This dataset lists metadata of georeferenced stations obtained from 31 published studies of benthic foraminifera from surface sediments of the Eastern Pacific between 1929 and 2019 .The publications included in the dataset do not contain tabulated quantitative species abundance data of benthic foraminifera assemblages. Explanations about column names and column codes can be found in the companion file.
