Early diagenesis of organic matter in Peru continental margin sediments: Phosphorite precipitation
Philip N. Froelich,Michael A. Arthur,William C. Burnett,M Deakin,V Hensley,Richard A. Jahnke,Lisa Wells Kaul,K.-H Kim,Kevin K. Roe,A Soutar,C Vathakanon +10 more
TL;DR: Pore water chemistry (total dissolved CO 2, NH 4, NO 3, NO 2, PO 4, Si(OH) 4, Ca, Mg, Fe, Mn, SO 4, H 2 S and F, and titration alkalinity) and sediment characteristics (porosity, dry bulk density and formation factors) were determined on a centimeter-scale spacing in the upper 20-40 cm of sediments under intense upwelling areas on the Peru continental shelf as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
The present day formation of apatite in Mexican continental margin sediments
TL;DR: The present day depositional environment is consistent with those reported by other workers for phosphorite formation with the exception that pore water magnesium is not depleted below its seawater value.
Journal ArticleDOI
Growth rates of phosphate nodules from the continental margin off peru.
TL;DR: Phosphate nodules grow downward into soft sediment, and the rates of phosphorus accumulation into nodules are approximately equal to the upward diffusive flux of dissolved phosphate inferred from pore water profiles.
Book ChapterDOI
Upwelling and Phosphorite Formation in the Ocean
TL;DR: In this paper, the upwelling zone off Peru/Chile has been studied and shown to exhibit unidirectional growth downward into the underlying sediments at rates which are slow compared to rates of associated sediment accumulation and contain small but measurable amounts of excess 231Pa relative to 230Th.
Journal ArticleDOI
Uranium geochemistry and dating of Pacific island apatite
Kevin K. Roe,William C. Burnett +1 more
TL;DR: Uranium-series disequilibrium dating of island phosphate deposits is evaluated in terms of known associated coral ages, uranium geochemistry, and stratigraphic sequences as well as the concordance between the geochronometers 234 U/ 238 U, 230 Th/ 234 U and 226 Ra/ 238U as mentioned in this paper.
