Compilation of Low-Temperature Thermochronology data supporting the publication: Phanerozoic cooling events in the continental rims of the Central Atlantic Ocean.

This dataset is a compilation of published Low-Temperature Thermochronology data located in and around the Atlantic Ocean. This compilation is the result of the digitalisation of Low-temperature thermochronology data from published articles, ph.d. and m.sc. theses. The references associated to all data entries are available as an appendix (app_DATASET_2026_Charton_4TU.docx file). The compilation is available as a .csv file containing the following fields (source of metadata): Continent [-] (location of study)Country [-] (location of data point)Lat. [dd] (sample table or digitized from location figure)Long. [dd] (sample table, or digitized from location figure)Elevation [m] (extracted from global DEM based on data point location, or sample table or digitized from location figure)Reference [-] (reference)Published [yr] (year of publication)Sample [-] outcrop or well (sample table or reference text/appendix)Type [-] AHe, AFT, ZHe, or ZFT (sample table or reference text/appendix)Sample name [-] (sample table or reference text/appendix)Lithology [-] (sample table or reference text/appendix)Stratigraphic age [-] (sample table, or reference text/appendix)Age [Ma] (result table, figure, or reference text/appendix)Age Error [Myr] (result table, figure, or reference text/appendix)Central/pooled age [-] for Fission Track system only (result table, figure, or reference text/appendix)MTL [μm] Mean Track Length for Fission Track system only (result table, figure, or reference text/appendix)MTL error [μm] error (result table, figure, or reference text/appendix) Currently, the dataset contains 6839 data entries.
