Bacteria and organic carbon content from the deep Artic basins
During the Arctic Expedition ARK 8/3 (August to October 1991) with RV Polarstern sediment samples from 13 staions with water depths of between 258 and 4,427 m were taken along a... -
Clay mineralogy of sediment cores from the South Atlantic and the Adjoining S...
In the South Atlantic and adjoining Southern Ocean the kaolinite/chlorite-ratio in Late Quaternary sediments are an alternative deep water proxy to benthic foraminiferal proxies... -
A high-resolution sedimentology and age determination of core PS2185 from the...
A high-resolution multiparameter stratigraphy allows the identification of late Quaternary glacial and interglacial cycles in a central Arctic Ocean sediment core. Distinct... -
Living benthic foraminifers from the central Arctic Ocean
Fifty short sediment cores collected with a multiple corer and five box cores from the central Arctic Ocean were analysed to study the ecology and distribution of benthic... -
Sedimentology, organic geochemistry, and stable isotopes of core PS2138-1
We studied variations in terrigenous (TOM) and marine organic matter (MOM) input in a sediment core on the northern Barents Sea margin over the last 30 ka. Using a multiproxy... -
Organic-geochemical bulk parameters and specific biomarkers of three sediment...
In order to examine the variation in marine and terrigenous sources of the organic matter during the last 15,000 Cal. yr BP, hydrogen index values, C/N ratios, and specific... -
The South Atlantic carbon isotope record of planktic foraminifera
We reviewed the paleoceanographic application of the carbon isotope composition of planktic foraminifera. Major controls on the distribution of d13C of dissolved CO2 (d13CSCO2)... -
Sedimentology of core PS2564-3 and GeoB2110-4
In the South Atlantic and adjoining Southern Ocean the kaolinite/chlorite-ratio in Late Quaternary sediments are an alternative deep water proxy to benthic foraminiferal proxies... -
Sediments in Arctic sea ice
Despite the Arctic sea ice cover's recognized sensitivity to environmental change, the role of sediment inclusions in lowering ice albedo and affecting ice ablation is poorly... -
Benthic foraminifera of surface sediments in the Arctic Ocean
The Recent distribution of living and dead benthic foraminifera of the Arctic Ocean proper has been examined in surface sediments that were sampled during the International... -
Stable oxygen and carbon isotope ratios of Neogloboquadrina pachyderma from L...
A high-resolution study including oxygen and carbon stable isotopes as well as carbonate and total organic carbon contents, has been performed on undisturbed near-surface (0-40... -
Ostracoda in surface sediments of the Arctic Ocean
Ostracodes were studied from deep Arctic Ocean cores obtained during the Arctic 91 expedition of the Polarstern to the Nansen, Amundsen and Makarov Basins, the Lomonosov Ridge,... -
Benthic foraminifera in the Arctic Ocean
We examine the quantitative composition of benthic foraminiferal assemblages of Rose Bengal-stained surface samples from 37 stations in the Laptev Sea, and combine this data set... -
Sedimentology of three cores from the Laptev Sea continental margin (Arctic O...
Three sediment cores from the Laptev Sea continental margin were investigated for their clay mineralogy by X-ray diffraction to study the fluvial sediment supply since the late... -
Benthic foraminiferal records from two sediment cores from the Arctic Ocean
The benthic foraminiferal record of two sediment cores at 900 and 2500 rn water depth in the marginal Arctic Ocean reflects fluctuations in paleoproductivity, ice sheet extent,... -
Sedimentology of three cores recovered off the northwest of Svalbard
Three cores recovered off the northwest of Svalbard were studied with respect to glacial/interglacial changes of clay and bulk mineralogy, lithology and organic geochemistry.... -
Accumulation of particulate organic carbon at the Eurasian continental margin...
Data on the amount and composition of organic carbon were determined in sediment cores from the Kara and Laptev Sea continental margin, representing oxygen isotope stages 1-6.... -
Stable isotope ratios, carbon content and primary production of three sedimen...
We present three new benthic foraminiferal delta13C, delta18O, and total organic carbon time series from the eastern Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean between 41°S and 47°S.... -
Organic matter deposition along the Kara and Laptev Seas continental margin (...
Organic petrologic (maceral analysis) and bulk organic-geochemical studies were performed on five sediment cores from the Eurasian continental margin to reconstruct the... -
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...
