| Contents Notes | Surface Holocene sediment samples from middle Delaware Bay and cored Holocene samples from lower Delaware Bay have been studied in a preliminary way for general sediment characteristics, pH, Eh, organic carbon, hydrogen, carbohydrates, amino acids, hydrocarbons, chlorophyll-derived pigments, carotenoid pigments, and humic acids. Samples from a core near Wilmington Canyon on the continental slope off Delaware Bay were analyzed for organic carbon, hydrogen, and total carbohydrates. |
