Journal ArticleDOI
Sediment lipid biomarkers as recorders of the contamination and cultural eutrophication of Lake Erie, 1909–2003
YueHan Lu,Philip A. Meyers +1 more
TL;DR: This paper evaluated the hydrocarbon (HC), fatty acid (FA) and fatty alcohol (OL) contents of a century-long sediment core from the lake as recorders of the changes in biogeochemical processes that accompanied its eutrophication.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extractable organic compounds in midwest rain and snow
Philip A. Meyers,Ronald A. Kites +1 more
TL;DR: This paper analyzed the organic compounds extractable with dichloromethane in rain and snow samples collected over an 8-month period in southern Indiana and found that straightchain fatty acids and hydrocarbons from biological sources dominate the compositions and these show only minor seasonal changes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Variability of early diagenesis in lake sediments: Evidence from the sedimentary geolipid record in an isolated tarn
Eileen S. Ho,Philip A. Meyers +1 more
TL;DR: A 0.5m-long core of sediment from Coburn Mountain Pond, Maine, U.S.A., has provided a virtually undisturbed and continuous record of sediment deposition for the last 200 yr in this small, essentially pristine tarn as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Benthic foraminiferal microhabitat selection, carbon isotope values, and association with larger animals; a test with Uvigerina peregrina
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrocarbons and fatty acids in two cores of Lake Huron sediments
TL;DR: In this paper, the composition of aliphatic hydrocarbons and fatty acids in two half-meter cores of postglacial Lake Huron sediment were analyzed in two different cores.
