Isotopic effects of nitrate photochemistry in snow: a field study at Dome C, Antarctica [PDF]
Stable isotope ratios of nitrate preserved in deep ice cores are expected to provide unique and valuable information regarding paleoatmospheric processes.

Late Holocene multisource material input into the Aegean Sea: depositional and post-depositional processes [PDF]
The upper ~50 cm sediments in the deep-sea Aegean Sea were generally deposited through hemipelagic rain as indicated by paucity of terrigenous sand-sized particles, abundance of clay-sized materials and lack of turbiditic beds. However, quartz sand-sized grains, black debris, higher C org content and C/N ratio attest to a significant river-borne supply

Carbonates undergo a variety of physical, mineralogical, chemical changes during depositional and post-depositional stages that are of interest to exploration geologists and sedimentologists.

Nitrogen isotopes in bulk marine sediment: linking seafloor observations with subseafloor records [PDF]
The stable isotopes of nitrogen offer a unique perspective on changes in the nitrogen cycle, past and present. However, the presence of multiple forms of nitrogen in marine sediments can complicate the interpretation of bulk nitrogen isotope measurements.

Air mass origin and local impacts on Antarctic snow isotopic composition: an observation and modelling study [PDF]
Water stable isotopes (δ18O and δD) from ice cores are widely used to reconstruct past temperature variations through their well-established relationship with local air temperature, commonly referred to as “isotopic paleothermometer”.

AbstractTextural properties and microstructures are commonly used properties in the analysis of Pleistocene and older glacial deposits. However, contemporary glacial deposits are seldom studied, particularly in the context of post-depositional changes.

Trampling Experiments – A Contribution to the Pseudo-Retouch Issue
Stone tools can, apart from human-made retouch, exhibit traces of damage due to post depositional processes. As a result of post depositional factors, whether animal, human or natural in origin, this damage can sometimes be interpreted as human-made ...

Peatland vegetation takes up mercury (Hg) from the atmosphere, typically contributing to net production and export of neurotoxic methyl-Hg to downstream ecosystems. Chemical reduction processes can slow down methyl-Hg production by releasing Hg from peat

Storm‐flood‐dominated delta succession in the Pleistocene Taiwan Strait
Storm‐flood‐dominated deltas are sedimentary systems in which a complex interplay of hydrodynamic processes occurs during storms (e.g. tropical cyclones) due to the coeval action of continental and oceanic processes.
