Methane and hydrogen sulfide in porewater of sediment cores from the upwellin...

Porewater concentrations of sulfate, methane, and other relevant constituents were determined on four sediment cores from the high productivity upwelling area off Namibia which...

Iron and carbon geochemistry of sediment core GeoB1401-4

Iron speciation was determined in hemiplegic sediments from a high productivity area to investigate systematically the early diagenetic reactivity of Fe. A combination of...

Calculated sea surface temperatures of two sediment cores

The reconstruction of ocean history employs a large variety of methods with origins in the biological, chemical, and physical sciences, and uses modern statistical techniques...

Terrestrial organic matter in marine sediments of the Central Equatorial Atla...

Terrestrial organic matter (OM) in pelagic sediments is discussed with regard to depositional processes and land-sea interactions in the modern and past glacial/interglacial...

Paleotemperatures, stable isotopes and alkenones of samples from the South At...

Carbon dioxide is one of the most important greenhouse gases which are increasing in atmospheric concentration due to human activities. For using natural CO2 dynamics as a key...

Alkenones and coccolithophorids in late Quaternary sediments from the Walvis ...

Sea surface temperatures (SSTs) derived from the alkenone UK'37) record of Quaternary sediments may be subject to bias if algae with different temperature sensitivities have...

Calcareous dinoflagellate cysts analysis of sediment cores from the Equatoria...

An overview is presented of the current state of knowledge on paleo-ecological aspects of calcareous dinoflagellate resting cysts. Apart from literature-based information, a...

Sea surface temperatures derived from alkenones from Late Quaternary sediment...

Angola Basin and Walvis Ridge records of past sea surface temperatures (SST) derived from the alkenone Uk 37 index are used to reconstruct the surface circulation in the east...

Calcareous dinoflagellates in the eastern equatorial Atlantic

Sediments of the Equatorial Atlantic (core GeoB 1105-4) have been investigated for both calcareous dinoflagellates and organic-walled dinoflagellate cysts. In order to determine...

Stable isotope ratios of foraminifera from sediment cores off northeastern Br...

The western South Atlantic boundary currents represent a sensitive system within the global thermohaline circulation (THC). We investigated the impact of deglacial THC changes...

Sedimentology and stable isotope ratios of planktonic foraminifera from two c...

The stable isotope composition of planktonic foraminifera correlates with evidence for pulses of terrigenous sediment in a sediment core from the upper continental slope off...

Sea-surface temperature reconstructions for the Quaternary western Atlantic

Paleotemperature estimates calculated by the SIMMAX Modern Analog Technique are presented for two gravity cores from the Rio Grande Rise, one from the Brazil Slope, and one from...

Abundance of calcareous dinoflagellates of sediment cores from the South Atla...

Despite the increasing interest in the South Atlantic Ocean as a key area of the heat exchange between the southern and the northern hemisphere, information about its...
