Title
Data related to the research of trace elements and inferred hydroclimate change in stalagmite from Shangxiaofeng Cave

Method description

For the ICP-OES method, the carbonate powder was completely dissolved in 1 mL 1mol/L HNO3, and then were analyzed by ICP-OES.

For the XRF method, the sample was scanned by the fourth-generation Avaatech XRF core scanner.
