Radiocarbon data from benthic and planktic foraminifera in core EW9302-2JPC Northwest Atlantic Ocean (NERC Grant NE/M004619/1)
Radiocarbon ages of planktic and benthic foraminifera from sediment core EW9302-2JPC in the Northwest Atlantic from 0 to 30,000 years ago. Picked monospecific planktic foraminifera (G. bulloides and N. pachyderma) and mixed planospiral benthic formanifera (Cibicidoides, Melonis, Elphidium) were prepared to graphite at the NERC Radiocarbon Facility - East Kilbride and passed to the Keck Carbon Cycle AMS Facility, University of California, Irvine, USA for 14C analysis.

Data Quality
Picked monospecific planktic foraminifera (G. bulloides and N. pachyderma) and mixed planospiral benthic formanifera (Cibicidoides, Melonis, Elphidium) were prepared to graphite at the NERC Radiocarbon Facility?East Kilbride and passed to the Keck Carbon Cycle AMS Facility, University of California, Irvine, USA for 14C analysis. In keeping with international practice the results are reported as conventional radiocarbon years BP (relative to AD 1950) and % modern 14C, following the conventions of Stuiver and Polach (Radiocarbon, v. 19, p.355, 1977), and expressed at the ±1sigma level for overall analytical confidence. 13C/12C ratios for these samples were measured using the AMS spectrometer during 14C determination and used to correct for isotopic fractionation according to the conventions of Stuiver and Polach (1977).
