Cyclic magnetite dissolution in Pleistocene sediments of the abyssal northwest Pacific Ocean: Evidence for glacial oxygen depletion and carbon trapping

L Korff, T von Dobeneck, T Frederichs… - …, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
The carbonate‐free abyss of the North Pacific defies most paleoceanographic proxy
methods and hence remains a “blank spot” in ocean and climate history. Paleomagnetic and …
