Sediment facies of the Indian-Pakistan continental margin, Indian Ocean Exped...

The studies described here base mainly on sedimentary material collected during the "Indian Ocean Expedition" of the German research vessel "Meteor" in the region of the...

Ostracoda fauna of surface sediments from the Persian Gulf

During the "Meteor“-Expedition to the Persian Gulf in March-May 1965, approximately 300 samples were collected. Most of them have been already studied by various authors in...

Geochemical analysis of bulk sediment and interstitial water of sediment core...

Molybdenum and vanadium were analysed in 9 scediment cores recovered from the continental slope and rise off NW Africa. Additionall chemical and sedimentological parameters as...

Geochemistry of recent sediments of the East African continental margin, Arab...

Chemical analyses have been carried out on 40 samples from the sediment surface and 210 samples from cores that were taken from the edge of the African continental block at the...

Benthic foraminifera in surface sediments of the Persian Gulf

During "Meteor"cruise 1965 the author collected 134 samples of surface sediments from the Iranian part of the Persian Gulf. Benthic Foraminifera populations have been analysed...

Description of recent sediments of the East African continental margin

Recent sediments off East Africa coast show 5 fades, parallel the coast: biogene carbonate sand, olivgrey mud, foraminiferal sand, globigerine ooze, and deep sea clay. These...

Distribution of benthic and planktic foraminifera in surface sediments of the...

During the Indian Ocean Expedition of the German research vessel "Meteor" and the following cruise with the Pakistani fishing vessel "Machhera" in February and March 1965,...

Geochemistry of recent sediments from the Indian Ocean

During the International Indian Ocean Expedition (1964/65) sediment cores were taken on six profiles off the western coast of the Indian Subcontinent. These profiles run...

Nannoplankton of multi-net samples, sediment surface and sediment core sample...

Recent nannoplankton from the "Meteor”-stations M 242, M 243 and M 245 in the northern Arabian Sea were studied by means of the light and electron microscope, and 19 species...

Late pleistocene and holocene sedimentation in the central and eastern Persia...

The sandfraction of the sediment was analysed in five cores, taken from 65 m water depth in the central and eastern part of the Persian Gulf. The holocene marls are underlayn by...

Quantitative component analysis of the coarse fraction of surface sediments f...

In the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman marl forms the primary sediment cover, particularly on the Iranian side. A detailed quantitative description of the sediment components...

Geologic-hydrologic setting and surface sedimentology in the Persian Gulf

Morphology and sedimentation The deepest parts of the Persian Gulf lie off the Iranian coast. Several swells separate the Persian Gulf into the Western Basin, the Central Basin...

Determination of Radium, Thorium, and Protactinium in sediment cores of the I...

Instead of the isotopes Jo, Th, and Pa the radioactive daughter products Rn, Tn, and An were measured. It was possible to date four cores and to calculate the sedimentation...
