Phosphorus (in the form of phosphate) is an essential nutrient and energy carrier on many
different levels of life, and a key element in mediating between living and lifeless parts of the …

The Great Oxidation Event (GOE) is one of the most significant changes in seawater and
atmospheric chemistry in Earth history. This rise in oxygen occurred between ca. 2.4 and 2.3 …

The Corg: P ratios of organic-rich facies (TOC> 1%) exhibit considerable variation through
the Phanerozoic, from< 10: 1 in the Permian Phosphoria Formation to> 1000: 1 in some …

Evidence for precipitation of authigenic carbonate fluorapatite (CFA) in Long Island Sound
and Mississippi Delta sediments suggests that formation of CFA is not restricted to …

Phosphorus is the central ingredient in fertilizer that allows modern agriculture to feed the
world's population. This element, also critical in a host of industrial applications, is a …

Some of the most remarkable fossils preserve cellular details of soft tissues. In many of
these, the tissues have been replaced by calcium phosphate. This process has been …

The intensity of biological mixing in a marine sediment is widely believed to be related to the
flux of labile organic matter. At the same time, this flux has been shown to be strongly …

Benthic incubation chambers have been deployed in a variety of geochemical environments
along the California Continental Margin. These include both high and low oxygen …

The availabilities of iron and phosphorus have considerably impacted biological productivity
in past and present natural aquatic environments, and therefore have been key regulators of …

In situ microelectrode, box‐core pore water gradient, and in situ benthic chamber estimates
of organic carbon degradation and CaCO3 dissolution are combined with organic‐C and …
