Sedimentation Rates in Lakes of the Caucasus and Their Changes in the Late Holocene
AbstractThe sedimentation rates in lakes of the Caucasus in the Late Holocene are estimated on the basis of radioisotopic dating. The lakes are...

First Data on Modern Sedimentation Rates in the Southern Part of the Tatar Strait of the Sea of Japan
AbstractThe study of natural archives, such as bottom sediments of lakes and seas, is promising for paleoreconstructions due to rapid environmental...

Sedimentation in the Central Arctic Submarine Elevations: Results of Comprehensive Analysis of Paleomagnetic and Seismoacoustic Data
Abstract —The age assignment to the Arctic Basin sediments is complicated by the insufficient microfauna in them. Under these conditions, the...

Energy partitioning in global marine sedimentation: tidal, geothermal, and solar radiation contributions
Earth surface sedimentary processes involve the conversion of energy from tidal friction, geothermal heat release, and solar radiation. However, the...
