Janice Lough 2001/03 World Data Center for Paleoclimatology Data Contribution Series 2001-025 Boulder World Data Center for Paleoclimatology, Boulder Annual (water year, October-September) runoff (mm) of the Burdekin River, Queensland, Australia was reconstructed from intensity of fluorescence measured in two coral cores from Havannah and Pandora Reefs which lie in the Burdekin River plume. The following three data sets are provided: 1) Reconstruction of annual Burdekin River runoff (mm), 1644-1980. 2) Havannah Reef standardized (with respect to long-term mean sd) fluorescence index, 1644-1986. 3) Pandora Reef standardized (with respect to long-term mean sd) fluorescence index, 1737-1980 Paleoclimatic Research G2007 World Data Center for Paleoclimatology, Boulder http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/paleo/corals.html 1 1644 1980 Publication Date Complete None Planned 146.55 146.55 -18.85 -18.85 CoRIS Theme Keywords Version 1.0 EARTH SCIENCE > Paleoclimate > Coral Records > fluorescence Numeric Data Sets > Paleoclimatology CoRIS Place Keywords Version 1.0 OCEAN BASIN > Pacific Ocean > Coral Sea > Great Barrier Reef > Havannah Island Reef (18S146E0053) COUNTRY/TERRITORY > Australia > Queensland > Central Section > Havannah Island Reef (18S146E0053) OCEAN BASIN > Pacific Ocean > Coral Sea > Great Barrier Reef > Pandora Reef (11S144E0028) COUNTRY/TERRITORY > Australia > Queensland > Far Northern Section > Pandora Reef (11S144E0028) Burdekin River CoRIS Temporal Keywords Version 1.0 Holocene, Modern None Please cite original reference when using this data Isdale, P.J., B.J.
