Clay mineralogy of surface sediments from the South Pacific Ocean
The relative clay-mineral contents (rel%) of illite, smectite, chlorite and kaolinite were determined semi-quantitatively by calculating the integrated peak areas of the... -
Grain size fractions of surface sediments from the South Pacific Ocean
Silt and clay (%) represent the respective terrigenous weight fractions of dried bulk sediment. -
Granulometry of surface sediments from the Panama Basin (Table 2, 3)
Panama Basin sediment surface coarse fractions are dominantly composed of planktonic foraminiferal remains. Textural studies of these coarse fractions by means of a large...
