Sedimentology of surface samples from the Weddell Sea, Antarctica

Mineralogical and granulometric properties of glacial-marine surface sediments of the Weddell Sea and adjoining areas were studied in order to decipher spatial variations of...

Recent benthic foraminifera of the Scotia Sea and Argentine Basin

We investigated 88 surface sediment samples taken with a multiple corer from the southwestern South Atlantic Ocean for their live (Rose Bengal stained) and dead benthic...

Age models, isotopes, and calcium carbonate of two sediment cores from the So...

We used benthic foraminiferal assemblages and the stable carbon isotopic composition of benthic foraminiferal tests to interpret glacial-to-interglacial contrasts in two gravity...

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)...

Sedimentology of core PS2564-3 and GeoB2110-4

In the South Atlantic and adjoining Southern Ocean the kaolinite/chlorite-ratio in Late Quaternary sediments are an alternative deep water proxy to benthic foraminiferal proxies...

Radiolarian-based bransfer function for the estimation of sea surface tempera...

A new radiolarian-based transfer function for sea surface temperature (SST) estimations has been developed from 23 taxa and taxa groups in 53 surface sediment samples recovered...

Communities and microhabitats of living benthic foraminifera from the tropica...

Living (Rose Bengal stained) benthic foraminifera were collected with a multicorer from six stations between 2°N and 12°S off West Africa. The foraminiferal communities in the...

Standing stocks and carbon isotopes of live benthic foraminifera from the Sou...

Live (Rose Bengal stained) and dead benthic foraminifera of surface and subsurface sediments from 25 stations in the eastern South Atlantic Ocean and the Atlantic sector of the...

Benthic foraminifera off West Africa (1°N to 32°S)

Recent benthic foraminifera (> 125 µm) were investigated from multicorer samples on a latitudinal transect of 20 stations between 1°N and 32°S along the upper slope off West...

Geochemistry of continental slope and deep sea basin sediments off Uruguay

Pore water and solid phase from surface sediments of the continental slope off Uruguay and from the Argentine Basin (southwestern Atlantic) were investigated geochemically to...

Paleomagnetic and stable isotope measurements and distribution of benthic for...

A stable isotope record from the eastern Weddell Sea from 69°S is presented. For the first time, a 250,000-yr record from the Southern Ocean can be correlated in detail to the...

Seawater carbonate chemistry and carbon and oxygen isotopes during experiment...

Stable oxygen and carbon isotope measurements on biogenic calcite and aragonite have become standard tools for reconstructing past oceanographic and climatic change. In aquatic...
