Processed physical properties measured on sediment core MSM31_585-4_SL@en

Sound knowledge about the petrophysical characteristics of a sediment core is a prerequisite for any subsequent paleoenvironmental study relying on sediment proxies. Physical properties of whole-round sediment cores are acquired as a first step of sediment core description, prior to slicing of sediment cores into two halves. Here, we present raw physical-properties data of core MSM31_585-5_SL acquired with a Geotek MSCL-S system on the unsplit core, retrieved during RV Maria S. Merian expedition MSM31 to the northern Svalbard margin in summer 2013.扎实掌握沉积物岩芯的岩石物理特征，是依托沉积物代用指标开展的各类后续古环境研究的必要前提。在将沉积物岩芯劈分为两个半块之前，完整岩芯的物理性质数据采集是沉积物岩芯描述流程的首要环节。本研究公开了MSM31_585-5_SL号未劈分岩芯的原始物理性质数据，该数据由Geotek MSCL-S系统在未劈开的岩芯上采集完成，其岩芯样品采自2013年夏季"玛丽亚·S·梅里安号"研究船（RV Maria S. Merian）执行MSM31航次时于斯瓦尔巴北部陆缘海域获取的沉积物岩芯。
