All diatoms in the analysed section were extensively affected by dissolution with only c. 1% of valves in a “pristine” condition. Diatom concentrations were generally extremely...

%dry weight and %loss on ignition for CON01-603-5

Paleointensity versus age of all the sedimentary sequences of the present study, of the synthetic curve resulting from its compilation from other curves, and of the reference...

Within the framework of the Baikal Drilling Project (BDP), a 192 m long sediment core (BDP-96-1) was recovered from the Academician Ridge, a submerged topographic high between...

Palaeomagnetism was the method used for dating sediments older than the time span covered by AMS 14C dating. Geomagnetic palaeointensities recorded in Lake Baikal sediments were...

At both sites, the lowest dry bulk density values (ca. 0.40 g cm−3) correspond to intervals with high diatom concentrations and high sediment accumulation rate. By contrast, the...

C/N mass ratios remain constant throughout MIS 3 and into MIS 2, with values between 6.3 and 8.9, indicating no significant terrestrial input of organic matter (Fig. 3). Low...

We established a mastercurve “Baikal 200” of relative paleointensity, which represents a new synthetic paleomagnetic archive for Central Eurasia. The synthetic record is...

In the figure, the average sedimentation rates are also indicated. The grey bands correspond to the time span of stadial+glacial periods. To the right, the blow-up of the area...

The diatom succession at Academician Ridge is similar to the one from Continent Ridge and the two records, despite having very different sampling resolution, can be easily...

In order to characterise Lake Baikal sedimentary responses to global climatic changes that may be recorded in marine sediments, we compared our paleomagnetically dated...

Two boreholes, one to a depth of 300 m, and the other to a depth of 100 m below sediment surface were drilled at 53°41´48´´N-108°21´06´´E. The core was collected down to 200m in...

S. grandis is by far the species that contributes the most to the total biovolume accumulation rate with a peak value just above 4×106 μm3 cm−2 year−1. Its relative contribution...
