Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence for gammacerane as an indicator of water column stratification
J.S. Sinninghe Damsté,Fabien Kenig,Martin P. Koopmans,Jürgen Köster,Stefan Schouten,John M. Hayes,J.W. de Leeuw +6 more
TL;DR: The conclusion that gammacerane is an indicator for water column stratification, which solves two current enigmas in gammalerane geochemistry, is concluded.
Journal ArticleDOI
Revised calibration of the MBT–CBT paleotemperature proxy based on branched tetraether membrane lipids in surface soils
Francien Peterse,J. van der Meer,Stefan Schouten,Johan W.H. Weijers,Noah Fierer,Noah Fierer,Robert B. Jackson,Jung-Hyun Kim,J.S. Sinninghe Damsté +8 more
TL;DR: The MBT-CBT proxy for the reconstruction of paleotemperatures and past soil pH is based on the distribution of branched glycerol dialkyl glyceroline tetraether (brGDGT) membrane lipids as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of biological markers in the recognition of palaeohypersaline environments
H.L. ten Haven,J.W. de Leeuw,J.S. Sinninghe Damsté,P.A. Schenck,S. E. Palmer,John E. Zumberge +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the hydrocarbon fractions of a marl sample from a Messinian basin in the northern Appenines, and four oils, Rozel Point oil (Utah), and three seep oils from Sicily were studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Environmental controls on branched tetraether lipid distributions in tropical East African lake sediments
Jessica E. Tierney,Jessica E. Tierney,James M. Russell,Hilde Eggermont,Hilde Eggermont,Ellen C. Hopmans,Dirk Verschuren,J.S. Sinninghe Damsté +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the distribution of branched glycerol dialkyl glyceroline tetraethers (GDGTs) in recently deposited sediments from 46 lakes in tropical East Africa.
Journal ArticleDOI
A 6,000-year sedimentary molecular record of chemocline excursions in the Black Sea.
J.S. Sinninghe Damsté,Stuart G. Wakeham,Math E.L. Kohnen,Math E.L. Kohnen,John M. Hayes,J.W. de Leeuw +5 more
TL;DR: The results show that photosynthetic green sulphur bacteria (Clorobiaceae) have been active in the Black Sea for substantial periods of time in the past, and indicates that the penetration of the photic zone by anaerobic waters is not a recent phenomenon, and suggests that natural causes for shoaling of the chemocline are more likely than anthropogenic ones.
