Reduction–oxidation (redox) reactions occur during burial because sediments contain
reactive mixtures of oxidised and reduced components. Diagenetic chemical reactions …

The hypoxic zone in the Baltic Sea has increased in area about four times since 1960 and
widespread oxygen deficiency has severely reduced macro benthic communities below the …

This text, written by a leading researcher in the field, describes the origin and formation of
lakes in order to give context to the question of how lacustrine deposits form. It explains the …

New data are presented here that document the previously poorly known magnetic
characteristics of sedimentary greigite (Fe3S4). Several diagnostic magnetic properties can …

This chapter provides an introduction to the application of mineral magnetic methods to
studies of lake-sediments. It is not detailed; but instead contains a substantial number of …

Agriculture is a major contributor to the economic development of modern as well as ancient
India and largely depends on the rainfall in the monsoon season. In order to understand the …

The analysis of magnetization curves with model functions has been proposed
independently in several works as a method to unmix and characterize magnetic minerals …

The Nihewan fluvio-lacustrine sequence (North China) has recorded late Pliocene–
Pleistocene climatic and environmental changes, and contains valuable information on early …

Tibetan Plateau uplift and global cooling have generally been thought to have caused the
drying of the Asian inland, but how and when these factors drove the aridification is …

A comparison of the magnetic properties of lake sediments and catchment materials from
Pajep Njakajaure (north Sweden) demonstrates that high concentrations of single-domain …
