This core was analyzed to assess the impact of fluid seepage on sediment biogeochemistry and diagenetic processes. Solid-phase parameters comprise total organic carbon (TOC), stable carbon isotopes of organic matter, reactive iron phases (dithionite-extractable Fe), pyrite content (FeS2) and its sulfur isotopic composition (δ34S), carbonate mineralogy (calcite, high Mg-calcite, aragonite), and stable carbon and oxygen isotopes of background carbonates and concretions, as well as δ13C of organic carbon associated with concretions. Bulk elemental concentrations of Fe and Al were determined by X-ray fluorescence (XRF). Pore water analyses include dissolved methane (CH4), sulfate (SO4), sulfide (H2S), dissolved iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), total alkalinity (TA), and stable carbon isotopic compositions of methane and dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC). The dataset also includes porosity measurements.</description></descriptions><geoLocations><geoLocation><geoLocationPoint><pointLongitude>45.951833</pointLongitude><pointLatitude>-15.3705</pointLatitude></geoLocationPoint></geoLocation><geoLocation><geoLocationPlace>Indian Ocean</geoLocationPlace></geoLocation></geoLocations></resource>
