Abstract:
Raw major element oxide data for volcanic events analysed from B19 [78.00°N/36.40°W], TUNU2013 [78.04°N/33.88°W], and RECAP [71.3°N/26.7°W] ice cores (Greenland) across the period 750-940 CE. Data was obtained using electron probe micro-analysis (EPMA) at the University of Bern, Switzerland, Queen's University Belfast, UK, and University of Edinburgh, UK. Sample ID, sample depth (m), raw oxide values, and correlating horizon are provided.
