Biodegradation and mineralization of petroleum, added at 1% (v/v) to freshly collected sea water, were measured using gas-liquid chromatographic, residual weight, and COz-evolution techniques. Only 3% of the added petroleum was biodegraded and 1% was mineralized in unamended sea water after 18 days

13 C Ξ΄ 15 N Kara Sea paleoclimate Ob Yenisei Stable carbon and nitrogen isotope ratios (Ξ΄ 13 C, Ξ΄ 15 N) are frequently used to decipher organic matter sources and transformation processes. Here, we present stable isotope data of suspended matter and sediments from the Ob and Yenisei estuaries and t
The occurrence of authigenic y-MnS in organic matter-rich sediments of the central Gotland Deep is reported for the first time. The hexagonal manganese sulfide was found in a thin sediment layer with an approximate age of 1130 years and has an isotopic composition of F34S z -13%0 vs. V-CDT. This ind
