Sedimentation rate as determined by

Sedimentation Rates Determined Using 226Ra in Barite Sedimentation rates of 3.6 cm/kyr at the equator and 2.7 cm/kyr at 2°N are derived from the slope of the logarithm of 226Ra (dpm/gm) in barite versus depth below the bioturbation zone (Fig. 3, empty symbols). These are maximum sedimen- tation rates because most likely a larger …

Radiometric dating of sediment cores from aquatic

Due to the large discrepancy of the derived sedimentation rates derived for each one of the two peaks, it was considered appropriate to define individual rates for different time periods. Thus, the sedimentation rate for the period after 1986 was estimated at 0.21(4) cm year −1 and the one for time period between 1963 and 1986 was 0.39(8) …

An eco-parametric method to derive sedimentation rates for coastal

The sedimentation rate is defined as the thickness of sediments deposited over a certain time. In vegetated environments, the sedimentation rate (R sed) can be calculated as: (1) R sed = D OG / t col where D OG is the depth of the original ground (OG) on which the saltmarsh plants initially settled (Fig. 2), and t col is the elapsed time from …

However, the errors of estimated sedimentation rate vary among reservoirs due to different accuracy of satellite-derived bathymetry. The derived bathymetry has a mean percent bias of 4.08%, with lowest in Lake Gibson (0.31%) and highest in Lake Sumner (15.66%) (Figure 3 ).

Temporal variation of sedimentation rates and potential factors

To ensure that the comparison between the 137 Cs-derived and 210 Pb-derived average sedimentation rates was conducted over the same time scale, the averages of 210 Pb-derived sedimentation rate used the mass depth divided by time at the depth over which the average was desired. 2.3.
