Counts of benthic foraminifera in core TNO57-21
Introduction
[The data set includes the counts of benthic foraminifera in core TNO57-21. Sediment
samples were washed and sieved to 63 µm before drying and weighing. Benthic
foraminifera were counted in the > 125 µm fraction, counted and identified following
published illustrations. ]

Supporting Information Data Set S1.
Counts of benthic foraminifera in core TNO57-21 and abundance of Epistominella
exigua per dry weight and dry weight of coarse fraction. The age model used in this
study is from Barker and Diz [2014]. Data from 100 cm to 361 cm were previously
published by Barker et al., [2009].
