XRF down-core scanning and bulk chemistry measurements of sediments from the high latitude sectors of Pacific Ocean ...
Thirty marine sediment cores were collected from the subarctic Northwest Pacific (cruise SO264 with R/V SONNE in 2018), the central Drake Passage (cruise PS97 with RV Polarstern in 2016), the Pacific sector of the Southern Ocean (cruise PS75 in 2009/2010) and the Okhotsk Sea (cruise KOMEX I and KOME...

Summary: | Thirty marine sediment cores were collected from the subarctic Northwest Pacific (cruise SO264 with R/V SONNE in 2018), the central Drake Passage (cruise PS97 with RV Polarstern in 2016), the Pacific sector of the Southern Ocean (cruise PS75 in 2009/2010) and the Okhotsk Sea (cruise KOMEX I and KOMEX II with R/V Akademik Lavrentyev in 1998 and cruise SO178 in 2004). The cover area is mainly spreading over the high- to mid-latitude Northwest Pacific (37°N-52°N) and the Pacific sector of the Southern Ocean (53°S-63°S), with a water depth coverage from 1211 m to 4853 m. These cores are dominated by pelagic sediments and mainly consist of calcareous and siliceous ooze and non-carbonaceous fine-grained sediments. The drilling locates at the pelagic ocean rather than the nearby area to the shore to avoid too much influence of coastal erosion and fluvial input. The age range of the majority of the sediments spans from Holocene to mid-Pleistocene. All XRF-scanning measurements were carried out with an Avaatech XRF ... |
