Seagoing Tools of Oceanography. S ince the ocean itself is not a convenient place to conduct research, scientists collect samples of water, sediment, flora, and fauna for study in laboratories aboard ship or ashore. Another approach is to create instruments or even automated laboratories to operate autonomously on the seafloor or in the water ...

Marine magnetic anomalies are a critical observation used to investigate seafloor spreading and the transition between oceanic and continental crust at passive margins. However, pronounced post-accretion sedimentation disturbs the thermal state of the crust and therefore alters its remanent magnetization.

Debris distribution and content in Spitsbergen icebergs varies, but basal debris-rich layers (often ~1 m-thick) are the most important sources of iceberg rafted material.

This observation appears at odds with the enhanced preservation of organic carbon observed in euxinic sediments. However, only small reductions in (depth-integrated) organic carbon decomposition rates (compared to normal marine) are required to give both high organic carbon concentrations and enhanced carbon preservation in euxinic sediments.
