Accumulation of organic carbon in marine sediments : results from the Deep Sea Drilling Project/Ocean Drilling Program (DSDP/ODP)

Factors controlling organic carbon accumulation.- Reconstruction of depositional environments from sediment data.- Methods.- Accumulation of organic carbon in Baffin Bay and Labrador Sea sediments (ODP-Leg 105).- Accumulation of organic carbon in the upwelling area off Northwest Africa (ODP-Leg 108).- Accumulation of organic carbon in (anoxic) marginal seas: I. The Mediterranean sea (DSDP-Leg 42 and ODP-Leg 107).- Accumulation of organic carbon in (anoxic) marginal seas: II. The sea of Japan (ODP-Leg 128).
