Physical properties and XRF scanner data of sediment cores TG-01 and TG-03, Ona Basin, southwestern Scotia Sea (Antarctica)

During expedition SCAN 2013, two gravity cores were collected in the Ona High slope, central Ona Basin, NE prolongation of the Antarctic Peninsula. Core TG-01 is 400 cm long and was collected from 2160 m water depth at 60º22'23.9314''S, 53º02'15.2501''W; core TG-03 is 295 cm long and was obtained from 2789 m water depth at 60º11'23.4003''S, 53º10'49.0810''W. Non-destructive analyses (i.e., physical properties measurements and X-ray fluorescence scanning) were performed on the archive halves. Both, physical properties (magnetic susceptibility, gamma-ray density, electrical resistivity and P-wave velocity) and major element compositions were determined at 1-cm resolution on split core surfaces of the archive halves using a GEOTEK Multi-Sensor Core Logger (MSCL) 81 at the Spanish Geological Survey (IGME, Spain).
