Knowledge on spatial distribution, provenance and delivery mode of surface sediment aids in interpretation of nearby sediment records for paleoenvironmental reconstruction. Such knowledge, however, remains largely unknown for the modern Ross Sea, Antarctica: a key region for understanding the dynami...
