Database for sedimentary lead isotopic fingerprints in the North Yellow Sea and Asian coastal oceans

This database include original data of the Pb elemental and isotopic characteristics in three well dated cores in the North Yellow Sea (Table1), collected potential Pb sources surrounding the North Yellow Sea (Table 2), and collected Pb contamination and isotopic records in Asian coastal oceans (Table 3). These data intend to demonstrate the impact of anthropogenic activities on the Pb concentration and isotopic compositions in the marine sedimentary ecosystem along the Asian coastal oceans in the last century.
