Morphology of Pulleniatina (planktonic foraminifera): Micro-CT internal volumes

Pulleniatina is a genus of planktonic foraminifera that is widely used in biostratigraphic and palaeoceanographic studies. This database contains the volumetric data from seven specimens of P. finalis, P. obliquiloculata, P. praecursor, P. praespectabilis, P. primalis, and P. spectabilis. The data were obtained using a x-ray computed tomography microscope, ZEISS Xradia 620 Versa, located at the Electrochemical Innovation Lab (EIL), part of the Department of Chemical Engineering at University College London., For the seven specimens scanned we provide the volume of the position on the centroids (x, y, z). This dataset can be run on R using the \"foram3D\" package from Brombacher et al. (2022). A guided example use of the R script it is provided in \"Appendix A\" within the paper Brombacher et alii, 2022 (https://doi.org/10.5194/jm-41-149-2022), thus we refer all users to that paper as a guide. The R package foram3D is freely available for download directly into R from Anieke Brombacher's GitHub page (https://github.com/AniekeBrombacher/foram3D.), , # Morphology of Pulleniatina (planktonic foraminifera): Micro-CT internal volumes
