The sedimentary processes and sediment sources contributing to the formation of laminated sediments along the upper slope off Pakistan are unravelled using inorganic bulk sediment geochemistry of 43 surface cores from the Pakistani continental margin and additional geochemical and Pb and Nd-isotope
We were interested to read Rasmussen's comment on our paper, suggesting a different interpretation for the sedimentary structures occurring on the upper continental slope of southern Gabon. We welcome the opportunity to clarify some of our observations, and to add precision to our interpretation. It
Iron content of the bulk marine sediment from the Chilean continental margin has been used to infer millenial-scale climate changes in southeast Pacific [Lamy, F., Klump, J., Hebbeln, D., Wefer, G., 2000. Rapid climate change in northern Chile over the last 80 ka recorded in a marine sediment core.
We determined the mass accumulation rates of biogenic (carbonate, organic carbon, Ba) and terrigenous (Al, Th) sediment components, together with excess 230 Th in gravity cores from the Exmouth Plateau and the Perth Basin on the West Australian continental margin, in order to reconstruct paleoceanog
The postโrift stratigraphy on the west African margin is characterized by aggradation of a carbonate ramp during Late Cretaceous to Eocene epochs and progradation of a terrigenous wedge from Oligocene to the Present. Such firstโorder structure has been attributed in the past to geodynamic forcing. H
