VERSION NOTES (v2.0)

This online data repository was updated in order to correct errors in the U-Th data tables (Tables A1, A2, and A3) and subsequently update the age-depth model. The corrections impacted the files named 'CYChen et al. (2020) QSR - U-Th Data Tables for PLJ-1 and 1996 cores - v2.xlsx' and 'CYChen et al. (2020) QSR - Input Your Own Depths for Age-Depth Model - v2.xlsx'. No changes have been made to the original versions of other datasets. However, all components of this data repository have been given the "v2" identifier to be consistent with the versioning scheme applied to this data repository as a whole by Zenodo.
