Radionuclides of surface sediments and water samples in the South Atlantic so...
The fractionation of 230Th and 231Pa was investigated throughout the Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean. Published scavenging models generally assume that the 231Pa/230T... -
Radionuclides in the Weddell Sea
228Ra and its granddaughter 228Th were measured on a N-S transect from 45's to the Antarctic continent across the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) and the Weddell Sea. The... -
Physical, chemical and biological oceanography during Polarstern cruise ANT-X/6
The R.V. Polarstern cruise ANT X/6, part of the international Southern Ocean JGOFS programme, investigated phytoplankton spring bloom development and its biogeochemical effects... -
Clay mineralogy of South Atlantic surface sediments
Surface samples, mostly from abyssal sediments of the South Atlantic, from parts of the equatorial Atlantic, and of the Antarctic Ocean, were investigated for clay content and... -
Sedimentation rates and geochemical analysis of surface sediments from the So...
Extensive investigations of sedimentary barium were performed in the southern South Atlantic in order to assess the reliability of the barium signal in Antarctic sediments as a... -
Relative abundance of dinoflagellate cysts in surface sediments and dinoflage...
In this study we investigate the potential of organic-walled dinoflagellate cysts (dinocysts) as tools for quantifying past sea-surface temperatures (SST) in the Southern Ocean....
