Calcareous Nannofossil Biostratigraphy from the Terrebonne Basin, Walker Ridge Block 313, Site H, Expedition UT-GOM2-2

These data include calcareous nannofossil abundance data collected on paleontology samples (sample code PAL). Specimens were examined and documented via photomicroscopy in a transmitted light microscope. A modified version of Styzen's (1997) quantitative counting method of calcareous nannofossils was applied to each sample examined ensuring precise interpretation of the age and assemblage. Biostratigraphic events, such as First and Last Appearance Datums (FAD and LAD), were determined, and known ages for these datums were plotted by depth. See Expedition UT-GOM2-2 Methods: Biostratigraphy (Flemings et al., 2025a, https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.13971228).
