Abstract:

XRF Core Scanner data of sediment core GeoB19973-2 from Baffin Bay were collected every two centimetres downcore over an active area of 15 mm² with a downcore slit size of 10 mm using generator settings of 10 kV directly at the split core surface of the archive half with XRF Core Scanner II (AVAATECH Serial No. 2) at MARUM, Bremen.
