Erlenkeuser, Helmut; Rumohr, Jan; Kersten, Michael: Short gravity surface sediment cores from SE Skagerrak shelf, slope and deeps: grain size [dataset]. Leibniz Laboratory for Radiometric Dating and Stable Isotope Research, Kiel University, PANGAEA, https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.902780 (dataset in review)
Abstract:
22 short surface sediment cores (13-93 cm; gravity cores 1m, 80mm iD) from shelf, slope and deeps of mid SE Skagerrak were analysed for water content, Pb210, and partly for Cs137, grain size and heavy metals. The data address sediment accumulation and modification in this hydrodynamically exposed area downslope to the deep depositional sites.
