Meroplankton in the Kara Sea
Meroplankton was sampled at 11 stations in the southern Kara Sea and the Yenisei Estuary in September 2000. Larvae of 29 benthic taxa representing 10 higher groups were... -
Radionuclide measurements in sediments and water of the Kara Sea
In this report, the results of a 2000-2001 radiogeoecological investigation are presented for the region of the Ob and Yenisei estuaries and the adjacent Kara Sea. In order to... -
Geochemistry on water profiles from the Kara Sea
As a part of the Russian-German project "Siberian River-Runoff (SIRRO)" the major element composition of the dissolved load and the major and trace element composition of... -
Physical properties of 22 sediment cores from the Kara Sea
High-resolution acoustic data and several sediment gravity cores taken in the Ob and Yenisei estuaries allow us to balance the Holocene sediment budget of both rivers and to... -
Stable isotope ratios on foraminifera and age determinations from sediments o...

Stable isotope ratios from foraminfera in Kara Sea sediments
Ostracods secrete their valve calcite within a few hours or days, therefore, its isotopic composition records ambient environmental conditions of only a short time span.... -
Late Weichselian fluvial evolution of the southern Kara Sea
Glaciations had a profound impact on the global sea-level and particularly on the Arctic environments. One of the key questions related to this topic is, how did the discharge... -
Sediment thickness and distribution of facies types in the Kara Sea
We studied the impact of the last glacial (late Weichselian) sea level cycle on sediment architecture in the inner Kara Sea using high-resolution acoustic sub-bottom profiling.... -
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.... -
Biomarkers in surface sediments from the Ob and Yenisei estuaries and the sou...
Organic-geochemical bulk parameter (Total organic carbon contents, C/N ratios and d13Corg values), biogenic opal and biomarkers (n-alkanes, fatty acids, sterols and amino... -
Distribution of marine invertebrate larvae in the southern Kara Sea (Russian ...
Within the generally oligotroph Arctic marine environment river outlets are favoured by many planktonic and benthic organisms due to their high input of organic carbon. The... -
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... -
Stable isotope ratios measured on carbonate tests from the Kara Sea
River discharge of Ob and Yenisei to the Kara Sea is highly variable on seasonal and interannual time scales. River water dominates the shallow bottom water near the river... -
Particle analysis in the Kara Sea
In September 1999 two short-term moorings with cylindrical sediment traps were deployed to collect sinking particles in bottom waters off the Ob and Yenisei river mouths.... -
Organic geochemistry of two sediment cores from the Kara Sea
Within the Russian-German research project on "Siberian River Run-off (SIRRO)" devoted to the freshwater discharge and its influence on biological, geochemical, and geological...
