Sm-Nd isotope systematics in deep-sea sediments: clay-size versus coarser fractions
peer reviewed Sm-Nd studies were carried out on Last Glacial and Holocene sediments from the Labrador Sea. Three grain-size fractions were analyzed for each sediment: the clay-size fraction (<2 mu m), the fine cohesive silts (2-10 mu m) and the coarse silts (10-63 mu m) In most cases, Sm-Nd signa...
