Application of the ²³⁰Th normalization method to estimate sediment burial fluxes in six cores from the
eastern equatorial Pacific (EEP) reveals that bulk sediment and organic carbon fluxes display a coherent regional
pattern during the Holocene that is consistent with modern oceanographic conditions, in contrast with estimates
of bulk mass...
During two cruises in February and June of 2003, the erodibility of sediment along the western Adriatic Sea was measured using a "Gust erosion chamber". In addition, the surficial sediment properties were characterized through a suite physical and biological measurements including porosity, grain-size, inorganic carbon, organic carbon and colloidal carbohydrate....
Many ocean regions important to the global carbon budget, including the equatorial Pacific Ocean, have low chlorophyll concentrations despite high levels of conventional nutrients. Iron may instead by the limiting nutrient, and elevated input of terrigenous Fe during windy glacial episodes has been hypothesized to stimulate oceanic productivity through time...
Holocene hemipelagic deposition of terrigenous silts and clays
dominates sedimentation on most of the Oregon and Washington continental
slope. The sources of these sediments, the mechanisms causing sediment
dispersal, and the relative contributions of the various continental
sources to the marine deposits have been investigated using quantitative
mineral and geochemical...
For decades, sexual violence has been a persistent crisis and challenge for universities and colleges across the United States. In order to address this problem and adhere to the strict legal obligations that require post-secondary institutions to prevent sexual violence on their campuses, universities and colleges have implemented a range...
