Benthic and planktic foraminifera data collected aboard the R/V Point Sur cruise PS18-25 in the northern Gulf of Mexico from 2018-05-18 to 2018-05-23

This dataset consists of benthic and planktic foraminiferal data including carbon isotope (C-13, C-14) measurements, abundance, density, diversity, taphonomy (fracture percentage), and stained/unstained ratios from sediment cores collected aboard the R/V Point Sur cruise PS18-25 in the northern Gulf of Mexico from 2018-05-18 to 2018-05-23. Stable isotope and radiocarbon measurements were performed on Cibicidoides spp. and Globigerinoides ruber. The dataset also contains date, latitude and longitude of sample location. Cruise documentation is also present for the R/V Point Sur cruise PS18-25. The chief scientist for the expedition was Dr. Arne Diercks.
