Journal ArticleDOI

Atlas of modern dinoflagellate cyst distribution based on 2405 data points

TL;DR: This Atlas summarises the modern global distribution of 71 organic-walled dinoflagellate cyst species and examines the relationship between seasonal and annual variations of these parameters and the relative abundance of the species.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selective preservation of organic matter in marine environments; processes and impact on the sedimentary record

TL;DR: The main theme of the workshop as discussed by the authors was to understand the impact of selective degradation/preservation of organic matter (OM) in marine sediments on the interpretation of the fossil record, including the influence of the molecular composition of OM in relation to the biological and physical depositional environment, including new methods for determining complex organic biomolecules.
Book ChapterDOI

Biomacromolecules of Algae and Plants and their Fossil Analogues

TL;DR: It is concluded that extant sporopollenin consists of the aromatic type, whereas the aliphatic component of fossil sporopollin is due to early-diagenetic oxidative polymerization of unsaturated lipids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Preservation of organic-walled dinoflagellate cysts in different oxygen regimes: a 10,000 year natural experiment

TL;DR: Data is presented on the effects of oxygen availability in bottom sediments on a cyst assemblage from the ungraded Madeira Abyssal Plain f-turbidite of which only the upper layer has been oxidized, and the influence ofoxy availability on the preservation of individual species has been estimated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Palaeoproductivity and post-depositional aerobic organic matter decay reflected by dinoflagellate cyst assemblages of the Eastern Mediterranean S1 sapropel

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated how organic and calcareous-walled dinoflagellate cysts can be used for separately estimating bioproductivity and oxygen related diagenesis.
