Descriptions

Compilation of global major and trace element compositional data for clinopyroxenes from mantle xenoliths from 972 locations worldwide, originally downloaded from the GEOROC database (https://georoc.eu/; accessed 14 July 2020). Each location includes multiple samples and analyses. To exclude unreliable samples, we used only clinopyroxenes with 40–60 wt.% SiO2, <40 wt.% MgO, <30 wt.% FeOT, <26 wt.% CaO, and oxide totals of 98.5–101.5 wt.%. Elements missing from >60% of the entire dataset were not considered. The dataset contains 21,605 observations (rows) corresponding to clinopyroxene major element analyses (SiO2, TiO2, Al2O3, Cr2O3, FeOT, CaO, MgO, MnO, and Na2O), and 2,967 rows of trace element analyses (including Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Ni, Rb, Sr, Y, Zr, Nb, Ba, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu, Hf, Ta, Pb, Th, and U). Database as published in Qin et al. (2022).

The DIGIS geochemical data repository is a research data repository in the Earth Sciences domain with a specific focus on geochemical data. It is hosted at GFZ Data Services through a collaboration between the Digital Geochemical Data Infrastructure (DIGIS) for GEOROC 2.0 (https://digis.geo.uni-goettingen.de) and the GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences. The repository archives, publishes and makes accessible user-contributed, peer-reviewed research data that fall within the scope of the GEOROC database. Compilations of previously published data are also made available on the GEOROC website (https://georoc.eu) as Expert Datasets.
