Sediment depth is given in mbsf. Chiloguembelina and Streptochüus from Samples 130-807A-73X-2 to -86X-CC.

Permeability measured on three samples in a triaxial cell under effective confining pressure from 0.2 to 2.5 MPa ranges from 10**-18 to 10**-19 m**2. Overall, results indicate that permeability decreases with effective confining pressure up to 1.5 MPa; however, measurements at low effective pressure are too dispersed to yield a precise general relationship between permeability and pressure. When the effective pressure is increased from 1.5 to 2.5 MPa, permeability is roughly constant (~1-4 x 10**-19...

A study of organic-walled microfossils from sediment cores of the Central Baltic Sea (North Central Basin, Gotland Basin, Bornholm Basin) and the Kiel Bight was carried out to increase our knowledge of the environmental changes in the Baltic Sea. For this purpose, the absolute abundance of these microfossils were recorded. Quantitative measurements of morphological change of the dinoflagellate Operculodinium centrocarpum, which indicate salinity changes, were performed. The cores from the Central Baltic Sea are correlated...

We present the results of grain-size analysis performed on hemipelagic sediment from Sites 1173, 1174, 1175, and 1177 at the Nankai Trough. Analyses of the <63-µm fraction were performed with a laser particle counter, and results were converted to equivalent settling diameters by means of an empirical regression with data from pipette analysis. The relations among grain size, porosity, bulk density, void ratio, and moisture content are influenced by the increasing compaction of sediment with...

Sediment depth is given in mcd. Counts of 300 specimens on each slide, magnification of x1250. Two additional traverses, beyond the 300 count, were scanned for rare species. <1 refers to species identified in the additionally scanned random traverses. OAE2 between 425.94 and 422.09 mcd.

Sediment depth is given in mbsf. Measurements were performed on at least 50 specimens in each smear slide, then, statistical mean and median were calculated. CIE between 170.64 and 170.11 mbsf, initial recovery phase between 169.92 and 169.51 mbsf.

Sediment depth is given in mbsf. Measurements were performed on at least 50 specimens in each smear slide, then, statistical mean and median were calculated. CIE between 218.49 and 218.41 rmcd, initial recovery phase between 218.40 and 218.24 rmcd.

Annually laminated (varved) sediment sequences are regarded as one of the most important paleoenvironmental archives because they offer:- accurate „internal" age information in calendar years combined with- exceptional high temporal resolution down to a subannual timescale.This online varve image library shows different varve types, their seasonal sublaminae and successions as well as their components. This site is intended to summarize and distribute existing image information about varves, allow a better start of students and scientists...

Floral foam visible here was used to stabilize a loose, sandy slump slayer which otherwise would have disintegrate during the drying process. Thus, the image has been taken next to the impregnated sediment. Floral foam is also commonly used to fix the sediment-water interface in surface cores. The dark grains distributed all over the image is the residue of the abrasive powder used for grinding and polishing the thin section.left: normal light, 200x magnification; right:...
