A Holocene record of climate-driven shifts in coastal carbon sequestration
(2009)A sediment core collected in the mesohaline portion of Chesapeake Bay was found to contain periods of increased delivery of refractory black carbon (BC) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). The BC was most likely ... -
Impact of Hurricane Katrina (2005) on deltaic evolution and shelf organic carbon cycling
(2010)Sediment cores from the continental shelf adjacent to the Mississippi River delta immediately after the passage of Hurricane Katrina were used to examine the magnitude, and implications for the carbon budget, of sediment ... -
Oceanic loading of wildfire-derived organic compounds from a small mountainous river
(2008)Small mountainous rivers (SMRs) export substantial amounts of sediment into the world's oceans. The concomitant yield of organic carbon (OC) associated with this class of rivers has also been shown to be significant and ...
