Widespread Cenozoic sediments in and around the Tibetan Plateau (TP) are thought to have played an important role in explaining the process of the India-Asia collision as well...

Sulfate-driven anaerobic oxidation of methane (SO4-AOM) in marine sediments commonly leads to the precipitation of pyrite. It is, however, frequently challenging to...

Geochemical and Sr-Nd-Pb isotopic compositions of the detrital sediments from ODP Hole 1202B and Taiwan rivers were measured in this study, aiming to reveal changes in sediment...

Mosses are a major component of the arctic vegetation, particularly of wetlands. We present C/N ratio, d13C and d15N data of 400 moss samples belonging to 10 species that were...

Major, trace element concentrations and Nd, Sr isotope ratios were measured in micro-drilled samples of a 2.37 Ga-old, hand-specimen sized spheroidally weathered diabase from...

The subsurface evolution of shallow-sea hydrothermal fluids is a function of many factors including fluid?mineral equilibria, phase separation, magmatic inputs, and mineral...

The concentrations of Sc, Ti, Fe, Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, La, Th and U have been measured in several Pacific pelagic clays having widely different accumulation rates, 0.4-9.0 mm/103 yr....

Strontium isotopic compositions of the interstitial water and carbonate from marine sediments sampled during IODP 308, in two basins (the normally-pressured Brazos-Trinity Basin...

This study presents the carbon, oxygen, and magnesium isotope compositions of two modern brachiopods, Terebratalia transversa and Frieleia halli, and one fossil specimen (2.3...

The El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is a globally important factor in today's climate dynamics. Annually laminated oil shales from the maar lake of Messel (Germany) provide...

Atmospheric transport is an understudied mechanism for leaf wax hydrogen isotope applications that contributes to mobilizing and depositing these compounds on the surface of the...

The concentrations of rare-earth elements (REE) have been measured in 31 ferromanganese nodules from the Pacific and Indian Oceans and vary by almost a factor of 5. Too few...

We present new lithologic, biostratigraphic and carbon isotope records for a calcareous-rich ~84m thick, early Eocene, upper continental slope section now exposed along Branch...

Palynological records from the Congo fan reveal environmental change in equatorial Africa occurring 1.05 Ma ago, 100 k.y. before the mid-Pleistocene climatic shift at 0.9 Ma....

The Measurements of Urban, Marine and Biogenic Air (MUMBA) campaign took place in Wollongong, New South Wales (a small coastal city approximately 80 km south of Sydney,...

The annually laminated oil shale from the Eocene maar lake at Messel (Germany) provides unique palaeoenvironmental and palaeoclimatological information for the Palaeogene...

The water masses passing the Fram Strait are mainly responsible for the exchange of heat and freshwater between the Nordic Seas and the Arctic Ocean (the Arctic Mediterranean,...

Continuous records of the atmospheric greenhouse gases (GHGs) CO2, CH4, and N2O are necessary input data for transient climate simulations and their related radiative forcing...

Altered pyroclastic (tephra) deposits are highly susceptible to landsliding, leading to fatalities and property damage every year. Halloysite, a low-activity clay mineral, is...

Long chain alkyl diols are lipids that occur ubiquitously in marine sediments and are used as a proxy for sea surface temperature (SST), using the Long chain Diol Index (LDI),...
