The silica for authigenic clinoptilolite was derived from biogenic opal and decaying volcanic components. INTRODUCTION Site 462 is in the deep Nauru Basin, surrounded by atolls of the Marshall Islands and volcanic islands of the Caroline chain. The drill penetrated 560 meters of cal-careous and siliceous oozes, chalks, limestones, and
pelagic sediment (cocolithophorids, pteropods, foraminifera) * Siliceous (SiO 2) oozes formed by organisms that contain silica in their shells. Diatoms are one type of organism whose remains contribute to siliceous oozes. The ocean is under-saturated with respect to Si, so it can dissolve everywhere. (large contribution from photosynthetic ...

Iron removal through incorporation into silica may be particularly important in the pelagic Southern Ocean, where iron often limits growth 24 and the …
Biogenic sediment from the skeletal remains of marine organisms covers approximately 65% of the ocean floor. The rest is covered by terrigemous material. The main sources of sediment in the deep ocean floor stem from planktonic marine organisms that live in the upper surface waters. The calcareous and siliceous types of skeletal structures may ...
So while the biogenic silica burial rate initially calculated provides an upper limit for burial, a more accurate rate can be calculated using sedimentation rates as determined by Hedges et al. This gives a burial fraction of 4-5% in Cascadia Basin, meaning that 95 …
The volume of sediment in this moderately coarse size range compares closely with the abundance of biogenic silica (Fig. F9). Indeed, examination with a scanning electron microscope shows that bulk sediment in Sample 172-1063D-4H-4, 72-74 cm, at 26.52 mbsf, is composed of abundant and fragile sand-sized biogenic silica grains (Fig. F10 ).
Biogenic silica (BSi), a chemically determined proxy, measures the amorphous Si content. of sediments. It has been shown to be a good proxy for diatom abundance (Conley, 1988) and for other ...
2. Biogenic silica. The percentage of biogenic silica (SiO 2) in the sediment (expressed as dry weight %) was measured following established procedures, .Five milliliters of a 10% hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2) solution was added to approximately 100–200 mg of dry sediment to remove the organic matter.After 30 minutes (min), 5 ml of a 10% hydrochloric acid (HCl) solution was …
Sediment cores as long as 20 m, dated by 14C, 210Pb, and 137Cs methods and pollen stratigraphy, provide a history of diatom productivity and sediment-accumulation rates in Chesapeake Bay. We calculated the flux of biogenic silica and total sediment for the past 1500 yr for two high-sedimentation-rate sites in the mesohaline section of the bay.

Biogenic Silica 119 [8] Hallet Lake is a turbid, glacier-fed lake and the 120 productivity is expectedly low, with sedimentary BSi con-121 centrations about an order of magnitude lower than in non-122 glacial lakes [e.g., Kaplan et al., 2002]. BSi concentration 123 ranges from 4–16 mg …
To determine the percent biogenic silica in sediments using sodium hydroxide dissolution of silica and molybdate blue spectrophotometry. Principle A freeze dried sediment sample is heated in sodium carbonate to dissolve the silica in the sample. The dissolved silica comes from biogenic sources, i.e. diatoms, and non-biogenic sources, i.e. clays ...
Aluminium (Al) is the third most abundant element in the Earth's crust. Its biogeochemical cycling on land, in water, and in the atmosphere is a …
Biogenic silica (BSi), primarily derived from marine diatoms, is a major component of the oceanic silicon cycle. It links with the global carbon cycle through the silicate pump via photosynthesis and the so-called "ballast" effect in many areas of the world's oceans, particularly in ocean margins.
where D B is the sediment bioturbation coefficient (cm 2 yr −1), B is the concentration of "reactive" biogenic silica per volume of sediment (mol cm −3), z is depth in the sediment column (cm), k is the dissolution rate constant for biogenic silica (yr −1), C s is the pore-water asymptotic silicate value observed at depth (mol cm −3), C is the pore-water silicate concentration (mol ...
biogenic silica and clay in the sediment and dissolved silica in the pore water. We introduced a clay-tied age tracer, which is the same as clay, except its amount de-cays with e-folding time scales of 20 kyr. The time pe-riod after deposition, the "age", is estimated from a ratio
between sedimentary biogenic silica and total organic carbon in the Ross Sea suggests that sediments with high percentages of biogenic silica contain higher fractions of marine-derived organic carbon contemporaneous with the sediments. Thus, in areas and lithofacies with high percen-

is known that sedimentary biogenic silica is distinct from mineral bound silica, therefore it has – been used as a proxy record for surface water primary productivity (e.g. diatom blooms). The Deepwater Horizon oil spill resulted in a widespread Marine Oil Snow Sedimentation and
Cenozoic biogenic silica sedimentation in the Antarctic Ocean, ... The efficiency of surface productivity has progressed to such an extent that much of the global silica supply has been transferred to the Antarctic at the expense of other productive oceanic regions such as the Central Equatorial Pacific. In the Neogene, the preservation or ...
However, tidal marshes can store large amounts of biogenic silica (BSi) in vegetation and sediment. BSi content of the typical freshwater marsh plants Phragmites australis, Impatiens glandulifera, Urtica dioica, Epilobium hirsutum and Salix sp. was analysed year-round. All herbaceous species accumulated silica in their tissue during their life ...

The estimated production of biogenic silica in surface waters of the mid-ocean gyres is approximately equal to that for all major areas of opal sediment accumulation combined. Regional comparison of silica production and accumulation rates suggests a strongly bimodal character in the efficiency of opal preservation in the sea.
12%Biogenic silica concentrations were determined from core samples of laminated sediments collected from Lake Zürich and Lake St. Moritz and used to calculate rates of biogenic silica sedimentation. In Lake Zürich biogenic silica sedimentation increased from 65 g SiO2·−2·yr−1 in 1894 to nearly 900 g SiO2·m−2·yr−1 in 1896 and in Lake St. Moritz biogenic silica sedimentation ...
