Phytoplanktonic microfossil groups of sediments from the South and Equatorial...
Individual planktonic microfossil species, or assemblage groups of different species, are often used to, qualitatively and/or quantitatively, reconstruct past (sub)surface-water... -
Geochemistry of sediment cores GeoB4901-3 and GeoB4901-8 from the southern fl...
Time series of terrigenous source elements (Al, K, Ti, Zr) from core GeoB4901-8 recovered from the deep-sea fan of the Niger River record variations in riverine sediment... -
Bacteriohopanepolyol biomarkers of sediments from the Congo fan
The transport and deposition of terrestrially derived organic matter (TOM) into the ocean is an important but poorly constrained aspect of the modern global carbon cycle. A... -
Age models, organic analyses and major-element analyses of sediment cores on ...
The distribution of rainfall in tropical Africa is controlled by the African rainbelt1, which oscillates on a seasonal basis. The rainbelt has varied on centennial to millennial... -
Grain size distribution and bulk chemistry of eolian dust
Atmospheric dust samples collected along a transect off the West African coast have been investigated for their physical (grain-size distribution), mineralogical, and chemical... -
Mg/Ca ratios of Globigerinoides ruber of sediment core GeoB4905-4
Here we present evidence that the Holocene African monsoon system (AMS) varied in response to the eastern equatorial Atlantic sea-surface temperature (SST). Several short-term... -
Expanded GHOST database
In this study we review a global set of alkenone- and foraminiferal Mg/Ca-derived sea surface temperatures (SST) records from the Holocene and compare them with a suite of... -
Chemistry and stable isotope record of sediment core GeoB4905-4
Evidence of rapid climatic oscillations like those observed in the Greenland ice cores and sediments from high latitudes of the northern Atlantic have been recognized in the... -
Chemistry of sediment profile GeoB4906
Mineralization of organic matter and the subsequent dissolution of calcite were simulated for surface sediments of the upper continental slope off Gabon by using microsensors to... -
Ikaite of sediment cores from the Zaire deep-sea fan
Most concentration profiles of sulfate in continental margin sediments show constant or continuously increasing gradients from the benthic boundary layer down to the deep... -
Bulk rock magnetic measurements and thermomagnetic analyses of sediment core ...
Diagenesis has extensively affected the magnetic mineral inventory of organic-rich late Quaternary sediments in the Niger deep-sea fan. Changes in concentration, grain size, and... -
Environmental magnetism, geochemical measurements and colour reflectance of t...
We combine environmental magnetism, geochemical measurements and colour reflectance to study two late Quaternary sediment cores: GeoB 4905-4 at 2° 30 N off Cameroon and GeoB... -
Communities and microhabitats of living benthic foraminifera from the tropica...
Living (Rose Bengal stained) benthic foraminifera were collected with a multicorer from six stations between 2°N and 12°S off West Africa. The foraminiferal communities in the... -
Standing stocks and carbon isotopes of live benthic foraminifera from the Sou...
Live (Rose Bengal stained) and dead benthic foraminifera of surface and subsurface sediments from 25 stations in the eastern South Atlantic Ocean and the Atlantic sector of the... -
Benthic foraminifera off West Africa (1°N to 32°S)
Recent benthic foraminifera (> 125 µm) were investigated from multicorer samples on a latitudinal transect of 20 stations between 1°N and 32°S along the upper slope off West... -
Pollen distribution in marine sediment samples along the south-western Africa...
The distribution of pollen in marine sediments is used to reconstruct pathways of terrigenous input to the oceans and provides a record of vegetation change on adjacent... -
Physical properties measured on 45 sediment cores from METEOR cruise M41/1
The complete sediment series recovered with the gravity corer during METEOR cruise M 41/1 were subjected to laboratory geophysical studies. Shipboard measurements on the... -
