Sedimentological data (XRF, calcimetry, spectrocolorimetry, insoluble fractions) of a calcareous tufa sequence from Pont de Joux, southeastern France@en

We present data on elemental geochemistry (XRF), spectrocolorimetry, calcimetry, and insoluble fraction from six sedimentary tufa sequences spanning the Late Glacial and the Holocene periods. Between 2020 and 2023, calcareous tufa sequences were retrieved from the sites of the Thomassine (43.849687°, 5.753143°), the Jonquier (43.577439°, 6.216300°), the Pont de Joux (43.367381°, 5.615868°), and the Mirail Valley (MIR-1 -43.755237°, 5.547327°-, MIR-5 -43.789934°, 5.540534°-, and MIR-8 -43.790569°, 5.540395°), located in Provence, southeastern France. These records provide insights into environmental evolution, sedimentary dynamics, and local climatic trends through variations in sediment composition. […]
