Samples of coral powder were obtained along coral cores at a sampling resolution of 0.5 mm, thereby producing a high-resolution record. The data set under consideration provides a 55-year record of δ¹⁸O, encompassing the period from 1958 to 2013.</description></descriptions><geoLocations><geoLocation><geoLocationPoint><pointLongitude>-33.81</pointLongitude><pointLatitude>-3.85</pointLatitude></geoLocationPoint></geoLocation><geoLocation><geoLocationPlace>Rocas Atoll, South Atlantic Ocean</geoLocationPlace></geoLocation></geoLocations></resource>
