Description

Here database of Phanerozoic occurrences and isotopic characteristics of metastable cold-water calcium carbonate hexahydrate (ikaite; CaCO3•6H2O) and its pseudomorphs (glendonites) is represented. The previous version of this database included 690 records ranged from Cambrian to recent, based on 323 references, the authors’ data and additional personal communications from the colleagues [https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3991964]. The updated database includes 63 additional localities based on extra 53 references. Database is provided as Excel2003 (.xls)- file, which consists from 6 sheets. The major sheet ‘Glendonites and latitudes’ includes a list of localities along with latitude / longitude, geologic age (in Ma and substage), palaeolatitude, references, environments and host rock for all records. Three sheets, entitled “Cenozoic glendonite and ikaite”, “Mesozoic glendonite” and “Paleozoic glendonite” includes data concerning carbon and oxygen stable isotope values of, respectively, Cenozoic, Mesozoic and Paleozoic samples. The sheet “References” contains list of references in APA style, accompanied by DOI numbers and hyperlinks to electronic versions (if available). The last sheet contains a list of updates compared with the previous version of this database. This database is a part of the MS submitted for publication to ESSD [https://doi.org/10.5194/essd-2020-222]
