| X-ray diffraction data for the 0-2 cm horizons of marine sediment cores and a mineral concretion near waste barrels in the San Pedro Basin of the Southern California Borderland | Push corer | Marine sediment push cores and one mineral concretion were collected near waste barrels in the San Pedro Basin of the Southern California Borderland in the Pacific Ocean using a remotely operated vehicle during the Schmidt Ocean Institute research cruise FK210726 onboard the R/V Falkor in 2021. Dried sediment samples of the 0-2 centimeter horizon of the cores and the mineral concretion were prepared at the USGS Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center for powder x-ray diffraction analyses, and x-ray diffraction scan data are provided here. Location information (latitude, longitude, depth) for each sample are provided in each Attribute Definition of this metadata file. The x-ray diffraction work was funded by the U.S Geological Survey Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center and ship time was funded by NOAA Office of Ocean Exploration and Research (grant number NA19OAR110305). | Kira Mizell |
