Whole-rock elemental analysis for lower Pliocene marine sediments from IODP Site U1533, Amundsen Sea, Antarctica

Major and trace element geochemistry of lower Pliocene marine sediment core samples collected at International Ocean Discovery Program Site U1533 in the Amundsen Sea via ICP-MS. Bulk samples of mud or sandy mud were analyzed to assess sediment provenance using elemental ratios. The geochemical data were collected and analyzed by Olga Libman-Roshal and Sandra Passchier, assisted by Xiaona Li in the ICP-MS analytical work.
