        fossil.txt      Fossil ostracode faunal census data.

                        This file contains the downcore ostracode census
                        counts from Cronin et al. (1994) for 18 GKG
                        boxcores and 1 KAL kastenlot core from the 1991
                        Polarstern cruise (Fütterer, 1992).  Ostracode
                        faunal slides from these cores are housed in the U.
                        S. Geological Survey, Reston, Virginia.  Columns 2
                        and 3 are the top and bottom core depths for each
                        sample.

        multicor.txt    Fossil ostracode faunal census data from multicore series

                        This file contains the downcore ostracode species
                        census counts from Cronin et al. (1995) for eight
                        multicores (MUC) from the Eurasian Basin of the
                        Arctic Ocean obtained during the 1991 Polarstern
                        cruise (Fütterer, 1992).  Ostracode faunal slides
                        from these cores are housed in the U.S. Geological
                        Survey, Reston, Virginia.  Columns 2 and 3 are the
                        top and bottom core depths for each sample.
