Nitrogen is an essential nutrient for all life on Earth and it acts as a major control on
biological productivity in the modern ocean. Accurate reconstructions of the evolution of life …

Deposition of marine black shales has commonly been interpreted as having involved a
high level of marine phytoplankton production that promoted high settling rates of organic …

We present a new 3D unstructured-grid model (SCHISM) which is an upgrade from an
existing model (SELFE). The new advection scheme for the momentum equation includes …

The mechanism of banded iron formation (BIF) deposition is controversial, but classically
has been interpreted to reflect ferrous iron [Fe (II)] oxidation by molecular oxygen after …

Черное море–одно из самых изученных морей Мирового океана, в нем были
проведены многочисленные морские экспедиции, ему посвящены сотни научных …

Land to ocean transfer of material largely controls the chemical composition of seawater and
the global element cycles. Overall this transfer is dominated by the riverine transport of …

The oceans regulate our weather and climate from global to regional scales. They absorb
over 90% of accumulated heat in the climate system (IPCC Citation 2013) and over a quarter …

The massive sulfide deposits of the Iberian Pyrite Belt are grouped in different styles of
mineralization, reflecting the formation in contrasting geological settings. The shale-hosted …

Beyond the shelf break at ca. 150m water depth, sulfate reduction is the only important
process of organic matter oxidation in Black Sea sediments from the surface down to the …

This paper evaluates the impact of using different wind field products on the performance of
the third generation wave model SWAN in the Black Sea and its capability for predicting both …
