“…This database consists of synthesis of planktonic foraminifera assemblage counts from surface sediment samples which comprise 4.205 singular counts from unique sites worldwide. The data set includes the compilations of numerous data bases: CLIMAP (CLIMAP Project members, 2009), the Brown University Foraminiferal Database (BUFD) (Prell et al, 1999), the ATL947 database (Pflaumann et al, 2003) and MARGO (Kucera et al, 2005;. The individual datasets of Hüls et al (1999), Mohtadi et al (Mohtadi et al, 2005;Mohtadi, 2010), Salgueiro et al (2008), and Munz et al (2015) are also considered into the database.…”

Census counts of marine microfossils in surface sediments represent an invaluable resource for paleoceanography and for the investigation of macroecological processes. A prerequisite for such applications is the provision of data syntheses for individual microfossil groups. Specific to such syntheses is the necessity of taxonomical harmonisation across the constituent datasets, coupled with dereplication of previous compilations. Both of these aspects require expert knowledge, but with increasing number of records involved in such syntheses, the application of expert knowledge via manual curation is not feasible. Here we present a synthesis of planktonic foraminifera census counts in surface sediment samples, which is taxonomically harmonised, dereplicated and treated for numerical and other inconsistencies. The data treatment is implemented as an objective and largely automated pipeline, allowing us to reduce the initial 6,984 records to 4,205 counts from unique sites and informative technical or true replicates. We provide the final product and document the procedure, which can be easily adopted for other microfossil data syntheses.
