Mineral composition of 356 sediment profiles from the Arctic seas

This data set contains the mineralogical analyses (binocular counting) of the 100-50 µm grain size fraction from bottom sediments collected by scientists of the V.P. Zenkovich Laboratory of Shelf and Sea Coasts (P.P. Shirshov Institute of Oceanology, Russian Academy of Sciences) during the Project ''Arctic Shelf of the Eurasia in the Late Quaternary'' in a number of expeditions to the Barents, Kara, East Siberian and Chukchi Seas on board research vessels R/V Professor Shtokman, H/V Dmitry Laptev, H/V Malygin, and icebreaker Georgy Sedov between 1978 and 1990. The analyses have been carried out according to the methods published by Petelin V.P. (1961) in the Analytical Laboratory of the P.P. Shirshov Institute of Oceanology. Archiving and electronic publication was performed through a data rescue by Evgeny Gurvich in 2003.

本数据集包含对100-50微米粒级组分的海底沉积物样本所开展的矿物学分析（双目计数法），这些样本由俄罗斯科学院P.P.希尔绍夫海洋研究所（P.P. Shirshov Institute of Oceanology, Russian Academy of Sciences）V.P.津科维奇陆架与海岸实验室（V.P. Zenkovich Laboratory of Shelf and Sea Coasts）的科研人员，在"晚第四纪欧亚大陆北极陆架"（Arctic Shelf of the Eurasia in the Late Quaternary）项目框架下，于1978年至1990年间，搭乘"斯托克曼教授号"（R/V Professor Shtokman）、"德米特里·拉普捷夫号"（H/V Dmitry Laptev）、"马利金号"（H/V Malygin）科考船及"格奥尔基·谢多夫号"破冰船（icebreaker Georgy Sedov），在巴伦支海、喀拉海、东西伯利亚海与楚科奇海开展的多次科考航次中采集所得。本次分析严格遵循彼得林V.P.（Petelin V.P.，1961）发表于P.P.希尔绍夫海洋研究所分析实验室的实验方法完成。该数据集的归档与电子化发布工作，由叶夫根尼·古尔维奇（Evgeny Gurvich）于2003年通过数据抢救项目完成。
