متن کاملParticulate Barium Fluxes on the Continental Margin: a Study from the Alboran Sea (western Mediterranean)
Particulate biogenic barium (bio-Ba) fluxes obtained from three instrumented arrays moored in the Alboran Sea, the westernmost basin in the Mediterranean Sea, are presented in this study. The mooring lines were deployed over almost one year, from July 1997 to May 1998, and were equipped with sediment traps at ~500-700 m depth, ~1000-1200 m depth and 30 m above the sea floor (~1000-2200 m). The ...
