Late Quaternary sedimentation along a fjord to shelf (trough) transect, East Greenland (c. 68°N) / John T. Andrews, Anne E. Jennings, T. Cooper, Kerstin M. Williams, J. Mienert.
Title: | Late Quaternary sedimentation along a fjord to shelf (trough) transect, East Greenland (c. 68°N) / John T. Andrews, Anne E. Jennings, T. Cooper, Kerstin M. Williams, J. Mienert. |
Author(s): | Andrews, John T. Jennings, Anne E. Cooper, T. Williams, Kerstin M. Mienert, J. |
Date: | 1996. |
Publisher: | Bath: Geological Society |
In: | Late Quaternary palaeoceanography of the North Atlantic Margins. (1996.), |
Abstract: | East Greenland continental margin from 66 to 68°N consists of major fjord/trough system that extends from Kangerlussuaq Fjord and Trough to Denmark Strait. Measurements of temperature and salinity of water column along transect show that "warm" water (0-2°C) underlies surface Polar water of East Greenland Current. Series of short cores along transect have enough foraminifera for suite of AMS¹⁴C dates to be obtained. These dates and measurements of sediment density, with percentages of total organic carbon and biogenic silica, show fluxes of organic and inorganic sediment over last 1-14 ka. |
