Deposition and benthic mineralization of organic carbon:A seasonal study from Faroe Islands

Seasonal variations in sedimentation and benthic mineralization of organic carbon (OC) were investigated in a Faroese fjord. Deposited particulate organic carbon (POC) was mainly of marine origin, with terrestrial material only accounting for Regional terms: Faroe Islands, Kaldbaksfjorour (C) 2016 E...
