Petrovic, Alexander; Fuentes, Manuel; Putri, Indah; Yahaya, Liyana Nur; Khanna, Pankaj; Purkis, Sam J; Vahrenkamp, Volker (2021): Holocene sediment distribution in the Al Wajh platform lagoon (northern Red Sea, Saudi Arabia), a modern analogue for large rift basin carbonate platforms. Sedimentology, https://doi.org/10.1111/sed.12955
The Al Wajh platform - located in the Arabian-African desert belt - is a large land-attached carbonate platform in the Red Sea. In order to analyze total organic carbon (TOC) in Al Wajh lagoon, sediments were dried at 40°C and powdered by hand in a mortar to homogenize the sediment. TOC content (n: 157) was measured using a Leco CS-744 elemental analyzer at the University of Bremen (Germany). Total organic carbon contents range from 0.09 to 0.64% (Fig. 8A and C). Samples with the highest TOC contents are associated with the deepest locations in the lagoon (Fig. 8C). ** For all details see the full metadata description at "https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.940746"!
