Radiocarbon dating of sediment core EN21103 from Lake Ulu, eastern Siberia
Radiocarbon dating performed on the total organic carbon content of 40 bulk sediments, measured at the MICADAS (Mini Carbon Dating System) Laboratory of AWI in Bremerhaven. -
Diatom distribution in sediment core PG2208
A total of 37 samples from sediment core PG2208 were analyses for diatoms, of which we found valves in 32 samples. For species analysis we prepared diatom slides for light... -
Mineral composition of sediment core PG2208
To analyze the mineralogical composition of sediments we freeze-dried and milled 19 samples for X-ray diffractometry (XRD) using a PHILIPS PW1820 goniometer (40 kV, 40 mA, from... -
Grain size composition of sediment core PG2208
Before conducting grain-size analysis, we treated 36 samples with hydrogen peroxide (30%), set on a platform shaker for 4–5 weeks to remove organic matter, while keeping the pH... -
Elemental composition of sediment core PG2208
Core sections were opened alongside and cut into halves of which one was used for non-destructive XRF scanning and back-up material, while the other one was subsampled for... -
Age determination of sediment core PG2208
To gain a composite core record for core PG2208 (Figure 1) we used XRF data, i.e., Sr, to correlate overlapping parts of retrieved sections resulting in 367 cm in total. For... -
Organic geochemistry of sediment core PG2208
To gain information on organic matter variability we analyzed 204 samples for total carbon (TC) and nitrogen (N), 190 samples for total organic carbon (TOC), 45 samples for... -
