Dataset of diatom abundances and diatom-inferred total phosphorus and electrical conductivity for Lake Tavatui (Middle Urals, Russi) over the last 11.7 cal ka BP.

ABSTRACT: This paper presents the diatom data on Holocene sediments of Lake Tavatui (Middle Urals, Russia). The dataset includes abundances of 160 diatom taxa and quantitative reconstructions of total phosphorus and electrical conductivity of lake water through more than 11.7 cal ka BP. Diatom identification was performed using a Mikmed 6 var. 7 microscope, bright-field oil immersion optics at 1000 × magnification. At least 500 valves were counted to determine the relative abundances in the assemblages (diatom total, percentage). Quantitative reconstructions of lake water parameters were obtained based on the diatom inference models developed by simple weighted averaging and weighted averaging partial least squares methods. The data make it possible to refine the Middle Urals palaeoenvironmental rec
