Compilation of geochemical data of the Atlantic surface sediments from variou...
Data compiled by E.A. Romankevitch from the following references: Lisitzin et al.,1975; Bezrukov&Lisitzin,1975; Emelyanov & Romankevich, 1979; Romankevich, 1984; Svalnov... -
Oxygen consumption in Arctic sediments
Total sediment oxygen consumption rates (TSOC or Jtot), measured during sediment-water incubations, and sediment oxygen microdistributions were studied at 16 stations in the... -
Activity and biomass of small benthic biota in the central Arctic Ocean
Sediment samples collected during the expedition “Arctic Ocean '96” with the Swedish ice-breaker ODEN were investigated to estimate for the first time heterotrophic activity and... -
Pigments of sediment cores of the Northwest European Continental Margin
In the context of the European OMEX Programme this investigation focused on gradients in the biomass and activity of the small benthic size spectrum along a transect across the... -
Carbon and nitrogen content of marine pore waters
We have developed sampling methods and an analytical system to determine the concentration of dissolved organic C (DOC) in marine pore waters. Our analytical approach is a... -
Biomass and bioturbation in surface sediments of the Arctic Ocean
Little is known about the benthic communities of the Arctic Ocean's slope and abyssal plains. Here we report on benthic data collected from box cores along a transect from... -
Sediment metabolism in samples off Northwest Africa
Sediments off northwest Africa were assayed for activities of the respiratory electron transport system (ETS) and for primary amino nitrogen. ETS activities were used to compute... -
Respiration and dissolution in sediments of the western Atlantic
We present in situ microelectrode measurements of sediment formation factor and porewater oxygen and pH from six stations in the North Atlantic varying in depth from 2159 to... -
Carbon and Lead chemistry of sediments from the Middle Atlantic Bight
A mass budget was constructed for organic carbon on the upper slope of the Middle Atlantic Bight, a region thought to serve as a depocenter for fine-grained material exported... -
Organic carbon flux through the benthic community in the temperate abyssal No...
In order to assess the carbon flux through the deep-sea benthic boundary layer, sediment community oxygen consumption (SCOC) was measured in different months and years at the... -
Meiofauna and the structure of the benthic community in the Iberian deep sea ...
On the cruises 3 and 15 of R.V. "Meteor" 6 grab samples, and 6 hauls with the 6 m Agassiztrawl were taken and at 2 stations the deep sea camera was lowered. This material gave...
