Documentation of sediment cores
The presence of a complex bedform arrangement on the sea-floor of the continental shelf in the western Amundsen Sea Embayment, West Antarctica, indicates a multi-temporal record... -
Sedimentation rates and geochemical analysis of surface sediments from the So...
Extensive investigations of sedimentary barium were performed in the southern South Atlantic in order to assess the reliability of the barium signal in Antarctic sediments as a... -
Sedimentary record of the western Amundsen Sea Embayment after the last glaci...
Reliable dating of glaciomarine sediments deposited on the Antarctic shelf since the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) is very challenging because of the general absence of calcareous... -
Observational data around large miliolid foraminifera from the polar oceans
Large miliolid benthic foraminifera of the family Cornuspiridae were investigated from 15 arctic and antarctic localities. The genus 'Cornuspiroides» Cushman is discussed in... -
Radiolarian fauna of sediment core MD96-2089 off Lüderitz, Namibia
The study of radiolarian assemblages from Core MD 962086 provides new information on the variability in the upwelling intensity and origin of upwelled water masses over the past... -
Biogenic particle and biomarker flux from a mooring time-series at AWI HAUSGA...
Since 2000 long-term measurements of vertical particle flux have been performed with moored sediment traps at the long-term observatory HAUSGARTEN in the eastern Fram Strait... -
Inorganic nutrients measured on water bottle samples during POLARSTERN cruise...
Inorganic nutrients were measured in surface water samples during the RV POLARSTERN cruise ANT-XVI/3. -
Age determination of sediment cores from the southern South Atlantic
Two sediment sequences recovered close to, and south of, the present Polar Front (50°, 53°S) in the Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean were analysed in order to evaluate the... -
Biomarker and x-ray diffraction data from Site U1313 (MIS 16 - 9)
A reconstruction of Milankovitch to millennial-scale variability of sea-surface temperature (SST) and sea-surface productivity in the Pleistocene mid-latitude North Atlantic... -
Vertical distribution of benthic foraminifers in the Arctic Ocean
The vertical distribution of living (Rose Bengal stained) benthic foraminifers was determined in the upper 15 cm of sediment cores taken along transects extending from the... -
Organic carbon and opal in deep sea sediments of the southern and eastern Wed...
During the ANT V14 (1986187) and ANT V113 (1987188) cruises of R.V. Polarstern sedirnents from the eastern, southern and central Weddell Sea were sarnpled with a boxcorer andlor... -
Magentic susceptibility raw data of 78 sediment cores from the Arctic Ocean s...
The method of measuring magnetic suceptibility is described in chapter 6.5.2, regional characterizations of sediments and data are described in the following chapters of the... -
Age model and susceptibility of sediment core PS2212-3
Palaeomagnetic investigations of two sediment cores recovered from RV Polarstern near the eastern slope of the Yermak Plateau (sites PS1533 and PS2212) reveal convincing... -
Rock magnetics and age models of three sediment cores from Makarov Basin
Three long sediment cores from the Makarov Basin have been subjected to detailed paleomagnetic and rock magnetic analyses. Investigated sediments are dominated by normal... -
Macerals analyses of sediment cores from the Laptev Sea
In order to reconstruct the depositional environment from the Laptev Sea continental slope and shelf during the past ~15,000 years BP maceral analysis was carried out on two... -
Radionuclides and sedimentation rates of sediment cores from the eastern Sout...
High-resolution records of the natural radionuclide 230Th were measured in sediments from the eastern Atlantic sector of the Antarctic circumpolar current to obtain a detailed... -
Accumulation of organic carbon in the Laptev Sea
Composition and accumulation rates of organic carbon in Holocene sediments provided data to calculate an organic carbon budget for the Laptev Sea continental margin. Mean... -
Age determination and sedimentation rates of sediment cores in the Laptev Sea
The Holocene depositional setting of the Laptev Sea was studied using three marine sediment cores from water depths between 77 and 46 m. Based on sedimentary parameters (TOC... -
