Rock magnetic data from sediments from the Arkhangelsky Ridge, SE Black Sea: I - cores from expedition M72/5, German RV Meteor, 2007

This data publication includes standard rock magnetic data related to concentration, coercivity and magneto-mineralogy versus depth from six sediment cores (M72/5-22GC3, M72-5-22GC4, M72-5-22GC6, M72-5-22GC8, M72-5-24GC3, M72-5-25GC1), collected at the Arkhangelsky Ridge in the Southeastern Black Sea during the marine expedition M72/5 of the German research vessel RV METEOR (in May 2007). The data are related to publications by Liu et al. (2018, 2019, 2020), Liu (2019) and Nowaczyk et al. (2012, 2013, 2018, 2021a, b). Sediment cores were recovered using gravity corers. For paleo- and rock magnetic analyses clear plastic boxes of 20×20×15 mm were pressed into the split halves of the generally 1 m long sections of the sediment cores. Data are provided as six ASCII files (.dat, one for each core) with metadata header, followed by 12 data columns and are decribed in the associated data description file (pdf).
