Composition of Pacific sea-floor manganese nodules
This collection of data on manganese nodules on the floor of the Pacific Ocean represents all the information that was available to the authors in May, 1964. It is compiled from... -
Description and composition iron-manganese concretions from the Pacific
One the most interesting features of ocean sedimentation is the manganese formations on the surface of the ocean floor in some areas. These are especially widespread in the... -
Global compilation of benthic data sets I
Approaches to quantify the organic carbon accumulation on a global scale generally do not consider the small-scale variability of sedimentary and oceanographic boundary... -
Primary data sets of the hydrographic atlas of the Southern Ocean
The general knowledge of the hydrographic structure of the Southern Ocean is still rather incomplete since observations particularly in the ice covered regions are cumbersome to... -
Foraminiferal faunal estimates of paleotemperature: Circumventing the no-anal...
The sensitivity of the tropics to climate change, particularly the amplitude of glacial-to-interglacial changes in sea surface temperature (SST), is one of the great... -

Holocene sea-surface reconstructions for the Californian margin
Time series of alkenone unsaturation indices gathered along the California margin reveal large (4° to 8°C) glacial-interglacial changes in sea surface temperature (SST) over the... -
Elemental composition of various manganese nodules
Manganese nodules have been observed over wide areas of both the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, however, deposits in the Pacific Ocean are generally much richer in elements of... -

Two types of deep-sea dredges are currently under development for the mining of the manganese nodules, a deep-sea hydraulic dredge and a mechanical cable-bucket system. Both... -

A criterion is suggested for discrimination between ferromanganese oxide minerals, deposited after the introduction of manganese and associated elements in sea water solution at... -

Attempts to classify pelagic sediments have been based either on appearance and composition, or on the ultimate origin of the components. In particular it appears feasible to... -
(Table 5, page 206) The uranium contents of some manganese nodules
The uranium concentrations in marine calcareous material of a biological origin varied between 0.0X and 0.X p.p.m. with the exception of corals which had concentrations of... -

The origin of authigenic minerals on the ocean floor has been extensively discussed in the past with emphasis on two major processes; precipitation from solutions originating... -

The cores described in this report were taken during the CHINOOK Expedition in July to August 1956 by the Scripps Institution of Oceanography from the R/V Spencer F. Baird. A... -
(Plate 3) Manganese nodules and deep-sea sediment core from Pacific Ocean
A synoptic review of the studies of well-known occurrences of palagonite tuffs is presented. Included are palagonite tuffs from Iceland, and pillow-lava palagonite complexes... -
