Eocene to Oligocene-aged benthic foraminifer isotope and sediment-derived neodymium isotopes from Ocean Drilling Program Sites 689 and 690 (Maud Rise, Southern Ocean) (NERC NE/L004607/1)
This dataset includes the (stable) oxygen and carbon isotopic composition of benthic foraminifer tests (n= 686) and the (radiogenic) isotopic composition of the terrigenous fraction of marine sediments (n= 75), all sampled from Eocene to Oligocene-aged sediments recovered at Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Site 689 and 690 (Maud Rise, Southern Ocean)

Stable isotope data was generated using the benthic foraminifer Cibcidoides mundulus, picked from the 212-300 µm sieved fraction of marine sediment samples from ODP Site 689. Isotope data were generated on a Thermo-Finnigan Kiel device coupled to a Thermo-Finnigan MAT253 mass spectrometer at the University of Southampton. Neodymium isotopes were generated on Oligocene samples using the sieved <38 µm fraction of marine sediments from Site 689 at Imperial College London, and on bulk (not sieved) sediment samples from Eocene to Oligocene sections of ODP Sites 689 and 690 at the University of South Carolina. Full analytical details can be found in the supporting methodology documentation.
