Global data compilation of benthic data sets II
In this study we present a global distribution pattern and budget of the minimum flux of particulate organic carbon to the sea floor (J POC alpha). The estimations are based on... -
Relative abundance and opal input of radiolarians measured on sediment core P...
We present a new proxy, the oxygen isotope measurements (d18O) of radiolarian opal from sediment cores in the Subantarctic Zone (SAZ) and Permanent Open Ocean Zone (POOZ) of the... -
Size distribution of Holocene planktic foraminifer assemblages
The size of any organism is influenced by the surrounding ecological conditions. In this study, we investigate the effects of such factors on the size spectra of planktic... -
Relative abundance of dinoflagellate cysts in surface sediments and dinoflage...
In this study we investigate the potential of organic-walled dinoflagellate cysts (dinocysts) as tools for quantifying past sea-surface temperatures (SST) in the Southern Ocean.... -

Organic carbon accumulation in the South Atlantic Ocean
A compilation of 1118 surface sediment samples from the South Atlantic was used to map modern seafloor distribution of organic carbon content in this ocean basin. Using new data... -
Physical properties measured on sediment cores from the Southern Ocean, Wedde...
This collection of 359 data sets represents raw data of physical properties measurements on Polarstern sediment cores from both polar oceans, sampled and measured between 1985... -
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)... -
Radionuclides in the water column at stations near the Antarctic Polar Front ...
Vertical profiles of dissolved and particulate 230Th and 231Pa were obtained across the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) in the southern Atlantic. North of the Polar Front,... -
Radionuclides in the Weddell Sea
228Ra and its granddaughter 228Th were measured on a N-S transect from 45's to the Antarctic continent across the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) and the Weddell Sea. The... -
Abundance and opal input of radiolarian species of two sediment cores from th...
Radiolarian-based paleoceanographic reconstructions generally use the abundance of selected radiolarian species. However, the recent focus on the opal flux and the development... -
Radionuclides in sediment cores of the Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean
We present time series of export productivity proxy data including 230Thex-normalized deposition rates (rain rates) of 10Be, dissolution-corrected biogenic Ba, and biogenic opal... -
Grain size effects on excess Thorium-230 of sediment cores from the Southern ...
Excess Thorium-230 (230Thxs) as a constant flux tracer is an essential tool for paleoceanographic studies, but its limitations for flux normalization are still a matter of...
