Abnormally elevated foraminifera shell weights of the planktonic species Globigerina bulloides were recorded during the course of Termination II at a tropical site offshore the Mauritanian coast. In order to investigate these increased shell mass values a series of physicochemical analyses were performed including X-ray computed tomography (CT) and the data are reported here. Furthermore, the relevant CT setup, scanning, reconstructing, and visualization methods are explained and the acquired
