Late Quaternary evolution of sediment provenances in the Central
peer reviewed Mineral assemblage, trace element content and Nd and Pb isotope signatures were analysed on the fine fraction (<20 mm) of sedimentary records from the Northern Mendeleev Ridge in the Central Arctic Ocean. Our aimwas to identify the detrital particle provenance and to interpret the c...

peer reviewed Mineral assemblage, trace element content and Nd and Pb isotope signatures were analysed on the fine fraction (<20 mm) of sedimentary records from the Northern Mendeleev Ridge in the Central Arctic Ocean. Our aimwas to identify the detrital particle provenance and to interpret the changes over the past w250 ka in the relative contribution of the different source-areas in relation to paleoenvironmental conditions. The clay mineral assemblage and the Nd and Pb isotope signatures depict systematic changes over the Late Quaternary.
