Geochemical discrimination of siliciclastic sediments from active and passive margin settings
Discrimination of active and passive margins is important from both academic and economic
aspects. This can only be successfully achieved, however, if there are major compositional …

U–Th stratigraphy of a cold seep carbonate crust
On continental margins, oxidation of methane-rich fluids from the sediment often leads to
formation of authigenic carbonate pavements on the seafloor. The biogeochemical …
