This data set presents bulk sample-based X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) measurements. For XRF sample preparation freeze-dried sediments from silt-clay overbank deposits of the Eger floodplain in Southern Germany were seaved (2mm) to discard the gravel fraction and large organic matter. Further homogenization was undertaken by grinding the samples with PM 200 planetary ball mill from Retsch. 8 g of sediment sample (<30 µm) homogenized in the ball mill were mixed with 2 g of special wax and homogenized with a shaker. Uniform pellets were formed using a Vaneox press at 20 t for 2 minutes. Elemental analyses were conducted in a He atmosphere using a Spectro Xepos energy dispersive XRF spectrometer. ** For all details see the full metadata description at "https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.972850"! ** File description: Measurement reproducibility
very good: very good reproducibility, highly reliable data
moderate: moderate reproducibility (values can be used in terms of proportions within this data set)
poor: data should be treated with caution, since the values were measured close to the detection limit!
#: individual values are secured, since concentrations are based on measurements with >1000 pulses
?: individual values are not secured, since concentrations are based on measurements with < 1000 pulses
