Visible spectroscopy reliably tracks trends in paleo-production
We review the use of visible range spectroscopy (VRS) to measure concentrations of
chlorophyll a and its degradation products (collectively classified as chlorins) from lake …

Spectrocolorimetric interpretation of sedimentary dynamics: The new “Q7/4 diagram”
Colour is a fundamental property of sediment and is often used for lithographic description to
determine sedimentological structures, facies etc. However, the sedimentary information …
