Download or read book Deep Sea Sediments written by and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2010-12-22 with total page 864 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the past few decades, deep-sea research benefited greatly from a number of newly developed, highly sophisticated exploration techniques and comprehensive datasets, thanks to the immense industrial interest in deep-sea sediments. The book Deep-Sea Sediments focuses on the sedimentary processes operating within the various modern and ancient deep-sea environments. The individual chapters track the way of sedimentary particles from continental erosion or production in the marine realm, to transport into the deep sea, to final deposition on the sea floor. The sedimentary processes cover several types of sediment gravity flow and contour currents, pelagic settling and hemipelagic advection, planktic and benthic bioproductivity, and volcanoclastic sedimentation. In addition, the relationships between depositional environment and endobenthic organisms as well as early diagenetic processes at and within the deep-sea floor are dealt with. Facies models of the wide range of depositional products hold the key for a process-related interpretation of ancient deposits. Changes in sea-water chemistry, major innovations in organism evolution, and changes in external controls on sedimentation and productivity are discussed in the context of overarching trends in ocean history. Deep-sea sediments are not only of interest because of the numerous interacting processes involved in their formation, but they represent also a nearly inexhaustible archive of long-term climatic changes. Consequently, the book also includes an introduction to the climatic interpretation of the various proxies that reveal global changes during the Mesozoic greenhouse and Neogene icehouse conditions. In order to address the specific interest of the oil and gas industry in deep-water sediments, the investigation techniques that are applied in this context and the methods to predict both the occurrences and the characteristics of hydrocarbon reservoirs are included as well. Examines the rapidly evolving field of deep-sea sedimentary research Focuses on sedimentary and diagenetic processes, with theory and case histories Covers the climate record, hydrocarbon reservoirs, and other topics of interest Features a multimedia component with colour versions of figures
Download or read book Geochemistry and Sedimentology of the Mediterranean Sea written by E.M. Emelyanov and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The monograph presented to foreign readers has been prepared by the famous Soviet investigators of processes of geochemistry and sedimentation in the Mediterranean Sea. For more than 20 years E.M. Emelyanov has examined the recent sedimentation of the Mediterranean Sea and K.M. Shimkus has studied the Quaternary and the earlier sedi mentation of the area. The authors, scientific workers from the P.P. Shirshov Institute of Oceanology, USSR Academy of Sciences (Atlantic and Southern Depart ments), took part not only in numerous cruises on oceanographic vessels of the USSR, but in the study of cores of the deep-sea drilling on R/V "Glomar Challenger". A great number of scientific papers and some books devoted to the processes of sedimentation and geochemistry of the Mediterranean Sea were written by them. Although the scientific interests of the authors are not only limited to these questions, I should like to emphasise these aspects of their scientific activity when introducing this book. The Mediterranean Sea is a suitable natural laboratory for solving a number of principal problems of marine sedimentation and lithogenesis.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The areas visited during the 10th Training-through-Research Programme were the Portuguese Margin, the Gulf of Cadiz, the Lucky Strike area of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, the Rockall Trough, the Southern Faeroe margin, and the Varring Plateau (Norwegian margin). The investigations were aimed atstudying such geological processes as neotectonics, fluid migration and escape, sediment processes in canyons and sediment reworking and benthic biology in areas swept by deep-sea bottom currents as well as hydrothermal manifestations on mid-ocean ridges. A seismic and sidescan survey of the Marques de Pombal structure (Portuguese margin) allowed a better understanding of a fault system known here from previous studies such as the ARRIFAN0 and BIGSET projects. The fault pattern has been mapped and acoustic images have helped to evaluate the status of their activity. The Marques de Pombal structure showed little evidence of recent activity and is being covered by sediments. Shallow slides found in the vicinity of the structure may, however, indicate some occasional activity disturbing the overlying sedimentary cover. The Pereira de Sousa fault was found to be much more active. Six new mud volcanoes were discovered and studied in the Gulf of Cadiz. Most of them were proved to be recently active. The mud volcanism of the Gulf of Cadiz can be considered as two characteristic regions with different mud breccia lithological composition. Several types of lava sulphite ores sampled during the Azores campaign of Leg 2 allowed a better understanding of volcanic evolution and associated processes of this area. A short 3.5 kHz survey across the Porcupine Seabight mouth, combined with existing swath bathymetry data and a few cores from the area, confirmed the findings of the TTR-7 cruise that the Gollum channel system is currently inactive. The study of a canyon on the northeastern Rockall Trough margin showed that the system is inactive at the present time and the last pulse of active downslope sediment transport took place in immediate pre-Holocene time. Debris flows were found mostly on the flanks of the canyon while the axial zone showed numerous signs of erosion. Sand was not particularly common in the studied area. It is suggested that significant amounts of sand are trapped in the canyon head, possibly due to slumps blocking the narrower waist area. Abundant traces of seabed erosion found immediately beyond the canyon mouth indicate that this area is a bypass zone and sand deposition may occur further into the canyon mouth indicate that this area is a bypass zone and sand deposition may occur further into the basin plain. An extensive collection of TV-guided grab samples and seafloor video records, obtained from sites in the Northern Rockall Trough, Wyville-Thomson Ridge and Southern Faeroe Plateau, provided GOOd insight on the distribution of bottom fauna, including deep-water corals, and of coarse glaciagenie debris. New data on a BSR distribution pattern were obtained on the southeastern part of the Verring Plateau and they suggest that the formation of the Storegga Slide was not directly related to the dissolution of gas hydrates. The investigation also provided a new insight into gas hydrate formation and distribution in the area.
