Description
This dataset contains data from the DFG Research Project SFB313 "Global Environmental Change: The Northern North Atlantic". These data are derived from PANGAEA. more
During the years 1985 to 1998 a special research project (SFB313) was carried out at the Christian Albrechts University, Kiel named "Sedimentation im europäischen Nordmeer' (1985-1990)", later renamed "Veränderungen der Umwelt: Der nördliche Nordatlantik' (1990-1998, The Northern North Atlantic, a Changing Environment)". Most of the data coming out from the SFB313 have been compiled, harmonized and archived in the PANGAEA information system. With the first volume of the "WDC-MARE Reports" a consistent collection of 1186 datasets with related metadata was exported from PANGAEA and is published on CD-ROM.
