Technical Notes: To download a file, right-click on a link (or control and click on a Macintosh). When the menu appears, choose "Save Linked File as..." and save the file to your computer.
    There is an Excel 5.0 / 95 workbook for each transect with every core on a separate sheet (or tab). The files range in size from 600kb to 2MB for the transect workbooks; the file with all the data is 4.3MB.
    If your spreadsheet software does not support multiple worksheets within a workbook or if you only want the data for one specific core, the data is also available in comma separated file format with a file for each core. To access the tables as Comma Separated Files click here.
