Changes in organic carbon stable isotope ratios across the K/T boundary: global or local control?

TL;DR: Meyers et al. as discussed by the authors showed that a global shift in carbonate carbon j~3C-values from heavier values in the Maastrichtian to lighter values in early Danian indicates recycling of isotopically light organic carbon to inorganic carbon reservoirs during a period of depressed marine productivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Radiolarian and sedimentologic paleoproductivity proxies in late Pleistocene sediments of the Benguela Upwelling System, ODP Site 1084

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined radiolarian faunas, organic carbon content (TOC), opal and coarse-fraction components over the last 270,000 years in sediments from ODP Hole 1084A, drilled in a high productivity upwelling region within the Benguela Upwelling System off the west coast of Africa.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of typhoon induced rainfall on settling fluxes of particles and organic carbon in Yuanyang Lake, subtropical Taiwan

TL;DR: In this paper, a sediment-trap monitoring program measured the fluxes of settling particles and organic carbon in Yuanyang Lake, northern Taiwan, from July 2004 to July 2006 and assessed their relations to the amounts of normal monthly and typhoon-event precipitation.

29. geochemistry of organic carbon in south atlantic sediments from deep sea drilling project leg 75

TL;DR: In this paper, CHN analyses of sediments and rocks sampled during DSDP Leg 75 in the South Atlantic have provided concentrations of organic carbon and atomic C/N ratios of organic matter from two sites.
Journal ArticleDOI

Resultats preliminaires sur la sedimentation pelagique de l'Atlantique tropical au Cretace‚ et au Tertiaire (plateau de Demerara, Leg ODP 207).

TL;DR: Danelian et al. as discussed by the authors investigated the role of the Oligocene superieur-Miocene inferieur in sedimentation of the plateau de Demerara de l'Afrique and the mise en place de communications oceaniques profondes.
