Organic carbon accumulation in the South Atlantic Ocean
A compilation of 1118 surface sediment samples from the South Atlantic was used to map modern seafloor distribution of organic carbon content in this ocean basin. Using new data... -
Dissolution index of Globigerina bulloides in recent and Last Glacial Maximum...
The modern Atlantic Ocean, dominated by the interactions of North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW) and Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW), plays a key role in redistributing heat from the... -
Physical properties and sedimentology on core GeoB1510-1
Detailed information about the sediment properties and microstructure can be provided through the analysis of digital ultrasonic P wave seismograms recorded automatically during... -
Age deterimation of sediment cores from the Atlantic Ocean
High resolution benthic oxygen isotope records combined with radiocarbon datings, from cores retrieved in the North, Equatorial, and South Atlantic are used to establish a... -
Magnetic extracts of three gravity cores located at the Ceará Rise, the Mid-A...
The magnetic microparticle and nanoparticle inventories of marine sediments from equatorial Atlantic sites were investigated by scanning and transmission electron microscopy to... -
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... -
Global data compilation of benthic data sets II
In this study we present a global distribution pattern and budget of the minimum flux of particulate organic carbon to the sea floor (J POC alpha). The estimations are based on... -
Shell preservation of Limacina inflata in surface sediments of the Central an...
Over 300 surface sediment samples from the Central and South Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea were investigated for the preservation state of the aragonitic test of Limacina... -
Carbon geochemistry of sediments from the Amazon deep sea fan
Sediment cores from the Amazon deep sea fan recovered during R/V Meteor cruise 16-2 show in detail the modern areal distribution of sedimentary organic carbon, stable organic... -
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... -
Clay mineralogy of South Atlantic surface sediments
Surface samples, mostly from abyssal sediments of the South Atlantic, from parts of the equatorial Atlantic, and of the Antarctic Ocean, were investigated for clay content and... -
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... -
Glacial North Atlantic: Sea surface conditions reconstructed by GLAMAP 2000
The response of the tropical ocean to global climate change and the extent of sea ice in the glacial nordic seas belong to the great controversies in paleoclimatology. Our new... -
Susceptibility measured on 22 sediment cores from METEOR cruise M16/2
Während des Fahrtabschnittes M 16/2 wurden an Bord von FS METEOR folgende sedimentphysikalische Arbeiten am Kernmaterial durchgeführt: - Messungen der... -
Physical oceanographic profiles of 21 CTD casts during Meteor cruise M16/2 in...
A memory CTD type Sea-Bird was deployed together with each box corer attached to the same wire about 10 m above the corer.
