Composition of bottom sediments from the Guinea Basin

Geomorphology of the Guinea Basin is described along with sediments from cores collected on the abyssal plain, within the abyssal hill zone, and in the eastern part of the Chain Fracture Zone. Stratigraphic differentiation of deep-sea sediments was based on diatom analysis, geochemical and lithologi...
