For the determination of sediment properties and biogenic sediment compounds, sediment was sampled with 3.6 cm diameter cores in five replicates by SCUBA divers. Sediment subsamples were taken with cut-off syringes (cross-sectional area = 1.65 cm²) and sliced in 1 cm intervals down to 5 cm sediment...
