Taken from the nearby seafloor, it provides a perfect record to compare the common sedimentary system surrounding the mounds (off-mound, background sedimentation) with cores taken from the cold-water coral mounds themselves. Here, we provide sediment dry bulk density measurements from sediment samples performed with Pycnometer following ODP Standards.</description></descriptions><geoLocations><geoLocation><geoLocationPoint><pointLongitude>-87.15005</pointLongitude><pointLatitude>23.838416666667</pointLatitude></geoLocationPoint></geoLocation><geoLocation><geoLocationPlace>Campeche Bank</geoLocationPlace></geoLocation></geoLocations><fundingReferences><fundingReference><funderName>German Research Foundation</funderName><funderIdentifier funderIdentifierType="Crossref Funder ID">https://doi.org/10.13039/501100001659</funderIdentifier><awardNumber awardURI="https://gepris.dfg.de/project/390741603">390741603</awardNumber><awardTitle>EXC 2077: The Ocean Floor – Earth's Uncharted Interface</awardTitle></fundingReference></fundingReferences></resource>
