Other constraints

Either: (i) the dataset is made freely available, e.g. via the Internet, for a restricted category of use (e.g. educational use only); or (ii) the dataset has not been formally approved by BGS for access and use by external clients under licence, but its use may be permitted under alternative formal arrangements; or (iii) the dataset contains 3rd party data or information obtained by BGS under terms and conditions that must be consulted in order to determine the permitted usage of the dataset. Refer to the BGS staff member responsible for the creation of the dataset if further advice is required. He / she should be familiar with the composition of the dataset, particularly with regard to 3rd party IPR contained in it, and any resultant use restrictions. This staff member should revert to the IPR Section ( ipr@bgs.ac.uk) for advice, should the position not be clear.

Dataset

Statement

Biomarker data was compiled from previous publications (see reference 1-5 above) or obtained via solvent extraction and analysis via gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) at the School of Ocean and Earth Science, University of Southampton, UK. The biomarker data was then apportioned into plant, soil, and algal organic carbon using a three-end member mixing model ( https://github.com/FluvialSeds/petm_mixing_model). Climate variables were obtained via several fully-coupled ocean-atmosphere climate model simulations. The climate model output was generated previously (see ref. 6) or obtained for this manuscript using the Hadley Centre model. The exact model configuration (HadCM3BL-M2.1Da) is described in detail in Valdes, P.J., et al (2017). Geosci. Model Dev., 2017. 10(10): p. 3715-3743.
