Ocean Chemistry and Deep-sea Sediments
Author: Open University
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
After a brief introduction to the distribution of deep-sea sediments, we show how the activities of marine organisms cycle nutrients and other dissolved constituents within the oceans, and influence the rates at which both solid and dissolved material is removed to sediments. Chapter 3 reviews the carbonate system and ends with a brief excursion into palaeoceanography. We conclude by describing the biological and chemical processes that continue long after sediments have been deposited on the deep-sea floor.

Antarctica
Author: Dieter K. Fütterer
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 354032934X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 473
Book Description
Sixty articles arranged in eight thematic sections refer to most recent geological and geophysical results of Antarctic research. The Precambrian of the East Antarctic shield and its geological history is considered as well as sub-ice topography, geophysics and stratigraphy, sedimentology and geophysics of the surrounding Southern Ocean. Particular emphasis is given to the connection of the Antarctic and the surrounding continents when forming part of Gondwana.

Late Cretaceous Through Cenozoic Climate Change on Antarctica
Deep-Sea Sediments
Author: H. Huneke
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0444530002
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 865
Book Description
'Deep-Sea Sediments' focuses on the sedimentary processes operating within the various modern and ancient deep-sea environments. The chapters track the way of sedimentary particles from continental erosion or production in the marine realm, to transport into the deep sea, to final deposition on the sea floor.

Carbon Cycling in the Glacial Ocean: Constraints on the Ocean’s Role in Global Change
Author: Rainer Zahn
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642787371
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 579
Book Description
A comprehensive progress report on the multi-disciplinary field of ocean and climate change research is given. It compiles introductory background papers and leading scientific results on the ocean-atmosphere carbon cycle with emphasis on the ocean's carbon inventory and the various components involved. The relationship between plankton productivity, carbon fixation, oceanic PCO2 and climate change is investigated from the viewpoint of long-term climatic change during the late Quaternary cycles of ice ages and warm ages. The various approaches range from micropaleontology over organic and trace element geochemistry to molecular isotope geochemistry.

Antarctic Palaeoenvironments and Earth-Surface Processes
Author: M.J. Hambrey
Publisher: Geological Society of London
ISBN: 186239363X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 497
Book Description
The volume highlights developments in our understanding of the palaeogeographical, palaeobiological, palaeoclimatic and cryospheric evolution of Antarctica. It focuses on the sedimentary record from the Devonian to the Quaternary Period. It features tectonic evolution and stratigraphy, as well as processes taking place adjacent to, beneath and beyond the ice-sheet margin, including the continental shelf. The contributions in this volume include several invited review papers, as well as original research papers arising from the International Symposium on Antarctic Earth Sciences in Edinburgh, in July 2011. These papers demonstrate a remarkable diversity of Earth science interests in the Antarctic. Following international trends, there is particular emphasis on the Cenozoic Era, reflecting the increasing emphasis on the documentation and understanding of the past record of ice-sheet fluctuations. Furthermore, Antarctic Earth history is providing us with important information about potential future trends, as the impact of global warming is increasingly felt on the continent and its ocean.
