Abstract:
We provide here supplementary data of Levy et al. (2023). To investigate influencing factors of Planktic Foraminifera (PF) Mg uptake in hypersaline regions, we measured the Mg/Ca of two flux dominating PF species, Globigerinoides ruber albus and Turborotalita clarkei with its two phenotypes 'big' and 'encrusted', derived from a monthly resolved time series of sediment traps in the Gulf of Aqaba (GOA), northern Red Sea. Presented are a summary of average (mean) individual planktic Foraminifera specimen Mg/Ca as a function of depth and time. Sediment traps were deployed at depths of 120 m, 220 m, 350 m, 450 m and 570 m and a core top sample. The data provided is at a near-monthly resolution between June 2014 and June 2015. Mg/Ca was measured using single chamber Laser Ablation Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) to account for the differences between succeeding chambers. The 'min' Mg/Ca and 'max' Mg/Ca represent distance from mean to extremities (i.e., range) for LA-ICP-MS measurements.
