Benthic incubation chambers and sediment pore water profiles were used to study early
diagenesis of organic matter in equatorial Pacific sediments. Replicate measurements with a …

Analyses for dissolved oxygen, nitrate, silicate and manganese in the interstitial water from
an in situ sampler and from boxcore sediment samples have been combined with solid …

Sediments are the main repository in the oceanic cycles of carbon (C) and phosphorus (P).
In order to relate the deposition of organic C and organic P from the water column, and …

In two distal carbonate turbidites (labelled a and e) from the Madeira Abyssal Plain oxidation
of organic matter (OM) has been accompanied by a reduction in Hydrogen Index (HI) and …

The kinetics of sulfate reduction and inorganic nutrient production (ΣCO 2, ammonium, and
phosphate) were examined in the sediments at five sites in the southern Chesapeake Bay …

Use of sedimentary organic carbon concentrations as a record of paleoceanographic
conditions is complicated by an insufficient understanding of the mechanisms controlling …

Three methods of estimating the particulate organic carbon fluxes to the sediment-water
interface of the deep Pacific Ocean agree to within the error of the measurements at MANOP …

Shipboard whole-core squeezing was used to measure pore water concentration vs depth
profiles of NO 3−, O 2 and SiO 2 at 12 stations in the equatorial Pacific along a transect from …

A model is presented for the decomposition of organic matter in marine sediments. The
model considers the organic matter as a whole. In this model the first-order rate parameters …

Analyses for dissolved oxygen, nitrate and total CO 2 in the interstitial water have been
combined with solid phase sediment analyses of carbon and nitrogen to calculate the rates …
