Carotenoids in Sediments as a Function of Environment
Science, 1963The carotenoid content and xanthophyll/carotene ratio were determined for the surface horizons of each of nine recent aquatic environments. In general, the concentrations of carotenoids, expressed as a function of organic carbon, were higher in marine than in fresh-water sediments. Xanthophyll/carotene ratios were all above unity.

Studies of sediments in a tidal environment
1991Five sedimentary environments in Plymouth Sound, S.W. England, are defined by side-scan sonar surveys calibrated by direct sampling by SCUBA divers: (i) uniform mud depocentres, (ii) areas of continual sediment reworking, (iii) areas of relict sedimentation, (iv) areas of episodic deposition and, (v) clean-washed rock outcrops.

Sedimentation in fluvial and lacustrine environments
Hydrobiologia, 1982Sedimentation in rivers is dominated by a complex set of physical processes, associated with the unidirectional flow of water. Variations in these processes give rise to different fluvial channel types, whose character can commonly be recognised in the ancient record.

Role of sediment in the persistence of enteroviruses in the estuarine environment
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1978The survival of four enteroviruses commonly found in sewage effluents was examined when the viruses were adsorped to marine sediments in estuarine water and compared with virus survival in estuarine water alone. Echovirus 1, coxsackieviruses B3 and A9, and poliovirus 1 survived longer when associated with marine sediment.

Fixation and Mobilization of 60Co on Sediments in Coastal Environments
Health Physics, 1981Abstract All Japanese nuclear power generating stations, placed on coastal areas, have produced an enormous amount of radioactive wastes in the past 15 yr. Surprisingly, the produced radioactive wastes have not as yet been disposed of by any means, but have been piled up at storage facilities in sites facing the sea.

Knowledge of Sedimentation in Urban Environments
Journal of the Hydraulics Division, 1967The population explosion, coupled with technological progress of the last century, has created megalopolis. Urbanization-suburbanization of America has changed the hydrology of affected areas, but little is known as yet other than qualitatively of the changes.

Magnetization of Sediments and Depositional Environment
1989Most records of claimed palaeomagnetic excursions are not accepted as manifestations of geomagnetic field variations, due to poor chronostratigraphic correlation. Post-depositional acquisition of detrital remanent magnetization may attenuate and modify, but not erase, high amplitude palaeomagnetic directions. It is proposed that the complete absence of

The Use of Sediment Traps in High-Energy Environments
Marine Geophysical Researches, 1990A sediment trap is a container deployed in the water column with the aim of providing a representative sample of the material settling through that water column before it passes to a greater depth and ultimately to the seabed or lake bottom. A review of the previous literature shows cylinders and baffled funnels to be the most efficient sediment trap ...
