Some naval vessels add seawater to carbon steel fuel ballast tanks to maintain stability during fuel consumption. Marine sediments often contaminate ballast tank fluids and have been implicated in stimulating fuel biodegradation and enhancing biocorrosio...

Variations in solar insolation caused by changes in the Earth?s orbit?specifically its eccentricity, obliquity, and precession?can leave discernible marks on the geologic record. Astrochronology leverages these markers to establish a direct connection be...

Engineers need to know properties of shallow marine sediments to build piers, pipelines and even offshore windfarms. We present a method for estimating the density, P velocity and thickness of these sediments. The traveltime inversion of primary and mult...

Although mangrove forests occupy only 0.5% of the global coastal area, they account for 10?15% of coastal organic carbon (OC) storage, and 49?98% of OC is stored in sediments. The biogeochemistry of iron minerals and OC in marine sediments is closely rel...

One gravity core retrieved from the Niger Delta was used to explore the origin of deposited organic matter (OM) and the paleo-climatic and environmental conditions over the Holocene in equatorial West Africa. The geochemical properties of sediments inclu...

Marine sediment is an important channel for methane leakage from the earth interior to the atmosphere. The investigation of gas invasion in fine-grained marine sediments is of great theoretical and practical significance in marine science and engineering...

As a kind of partially saturated soil often containing dissolved gas with a high degree of saturation (S > 85%), gassy sand sediment widely exists in the marine environment all over the world. Due to the effect of gas dissolution and exsolution on the po...

Contaminated marine and coastal sediments represent the main source of secondary pollution for the aquatic environment and marine fauna, affecting, directly and indirectly, ecosystems and human health. The assessment of the distribution of chemical pollu...
