Data_Sediment accumulation rates and carbonate fluxes of deep-sea sediments in the southern Gulf of Mexico

We present the mass and carbonate annual fluxes, collected by two sediment traps at 1000 m depth, located on the western and southern deep-water region of the Gulf of Mexico, and the total mass and carbonate accumulation rates from 48 sediment cores retrieved from continental slopes and the abyssal plain of the southern Gulf of Mexico (sGM).
